Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=JjBee62;2766170]I honestly can't remember the last time I was murdered by a woman with tattoos.

Stereotypes are the lazy man's way of explaining his bigotry. They're almost always false.[/QUOTE]Question to think about. You check into a hotel for one night and there is a set of hot triplet sisters working at the front desk of the hotel. They look the same in face, body, and how they are dressed obviously. You want all of them but just hoping to nail just one. Which one do you think you have the best chance with? The one with zero tattoos? The one with 3 tattoos? Or the one with 7 tattoos?

Please do not answer JjBee62. I know this could simply kill you not to reply because you have this need to comment on everything. But this is simply a thinking exercise for everyone. Doing this to you is mean like teasing a dog with a bone but do try your best to let this tattoo conversation end here.

Has anybody had success using a Wells card to get cash from ATM's?

Otherwise it falls apart.

1. The chance of meeting 1 person who is a triplet is extremely slim. About 1. 5% of all births are multiple births and 1% of multiple births are triplets or more. Add in young, female, hot and all working at the same place at the same time and you're somewhere in the winning the lottery 3 times probability range.

2. Most hotels don't allow people to work the front desk in micro bikinis. In typical hotel work attire, there's no chance that all of a woman's tattoos will be visible. In reality, each of them might have 20 tattoos, but most, if not all would be covered by clothing.

3. It doesn't matter how many tattoos any woman has if she's not interested. If the 1 with no tattoos (in the fantasy hotel with hot, naked triplets working the desk) is smiling and flirting with me, that's the easy choice. Forget for a second that you'll have no idea how many tattoos each have. Why depend on number of tattoos when it's much easier to just talk to all of them and read their reactions?

How is that mean to me? Did you think asking me not to respond to something ridiculous would have an effect on me?

How to Meet a Beautiful Colombian Woman in Medellin Without Ending Up in a Body Bag. A Very Short Guide for Foreigners.

Dedicated to all foreigners who lost their lives trying to meet Colombian women. In 2022 about 25 and counting. And that's just in Medellin.

The safest way to meet a Colombian woman in Medellin is to meet a "good girl. " Good girls have things going on in their lives, they study and / or work, come from decent families and have morals. They are not "easy. " They are not "party girls. ".

The best ways to meet a good Colombian woman are in real life. In organic environments such as school, work, through friends, through activities or a hobby. There is no lack of activities or events going on all the time in Medellin. And I mean activities besides going out and partying. There is something for everyone. From bicycling to art events to cooking classes.

With a good woman, you need to take your time, show her you're sincere and treat her with respect. You're unlikely to have sex with her on the first date.

Good women are generally not on apps that you're used to such as Tinder. On the contrary, Tinder is very dangerous as there are scopolamine gangs operating on it and looking for new victims.

You're most likely a tourist, staying in Colombia only for a few days, weeks or months and you may respond to this with: "Bro, I don't have time for all this good girl stuff, I just want to get laid bro. ".

OK, fair enough. There is a way to do that too without ending up in a body bag.

Prostitution is legal in Colombia but keep in mind that it's frowned upon. Bragging about your adventures, especially to locals is not the best idea. Be discrete and tactful. Locals do not appreciate foreigners treating Colombia as their brothel and sex tourists are seen in a very bad light. Unless you want to be stereotyped as a sex tourist keep your naughty adventure to yourself and maybe your "bros. ".

Since prostitution is legal in Colombia, there are established business that satisfy this demand. Using these business is SAFE. You will not be robbed or drugged and nothing will happen to you. Why? Because it's in the interest of these businesses to keep their clients safe and they make sure their girls don't mistreat clients.

There are basically two types of organized establishments in Colombia where you can purchase sex. Strip clubs and casas. Strip clubs are just like strip clubs in the USA, except they have rooms where you can take any girl you like. Casas are essentially brothels.

Nothing will happen to you in a strip club or a casa. Some of the most well-known strip clubs are La Isla and Fase Dos. As for casas, they are more lowkey but you can ask any taxi driver and he'd be happy to help you out.

Now, that you know what is safe, let's go over what is NOT safe.

1. Picking up hookers in the street in foreigner-heavy areas such as Park LLeras.

2. Bringing any girl to your place on the first date. Good girls are unlikely to agree and if a girl agrees you're running a substantial risk of her being a really bad girl.

3. Using apps such as Tinder.

4. Picking up girls in bars and clubs in foreigner-heavy areas such as Park Lleras and La 70. If you venture out to middle class or lower class barrios, you can actually do this with virtually no risk because the scopolamine gangs are simply not hunting there.

5. Meeting girls on Facebook, especially in foreigner groups. Yes, they are also being targeted by scopolamine gangs. Definitely avoid girls with revealing photos who randomly added you as a friend.

If you follow this guide, your chance of being scopolamined is very low, even if you choose to pay for sex. I personally recommend putting in the time and effort and discovering the inner beauty of good Colombian women. Their kindness, warmth and many other great qualities.

[QUOTE=ArmnHammer69;2766054]Energy living check in to my suite with a full size jacuzzi on the balcony. One of my regular girls I met in Bogot met me here for the weekend and we had a great time during the day. They now have a nice restaurant downstairs to take girls as well. Very guest friendly place full of gringos. Friday night went to la Isla got there early and it didn't really get busy until 11:30 at night. Maybe 100 girls at midnight and only 35 at 10:00 pm. Price was 350,000 to go upstairs. Got a bottle of champagne and celebrated.

Saturday night walked around lleras park with all the construction the hoe train was more spread out onto Calle 10 with the fast food restaurants. Can't believe how slow the construction in the park been like that for a few trips now. Then decided to do the strip club tour. Started at Giselle Barra dance for 10 pm only 10 girls some much older with one young skinny looker showing up at eleven. It's a very small club like hole in the wall thoughts. Next up fase dos at 11 pm they have renovated inside and with new leather chairs etc. About 35 girls inside two were to my liking one was a blonde girl I hooked up with in March at la Isla guess she had switched places. Think her name was Nala she had one of the tightest pussys ever. Keegal grip the whole time must have asked doctor for an extra stitch LOL. Finally returned to La Isla at midnight. Instantly took a cute brunette with a nice young juicy fake bum. Round one done. Had a few drinks had to buy a 6 coronas bucket to get a seat. Then found a skinny brunette and took her upstairs. As the night was winding down I made the move and took a cute young blonde with a tight spinner body and asked for her to come to my place.

Here's where the scams begin the guy at the counter said it would be 2,000,000 pesos for take out. I laughed and told the girl to take my number and she could message me later. To come for 1,000,000 for the night. Within five minutes she texted back saying let's go. Paid only 200,000 k for bar exit fee and 800 k to her. She loved taking pictures and videos with the jaHad a great time popping bottled in the jacuzzi she loved the private view of medellin. Had a great time with lots of action all over the condo and some nice long relaxing BBBJ without asking.[/QUOTE]The definition of a weekend warrior. To each their own. I never pass on info to them, because frankly they don't need it, and I don't like their approach which bends the local landscape the wrong way. I can however highly reccomend Gustos to you, and loutron as well to add to your la Isla bargain basement discount deal. As long as you stick to those areas I think we can all be happy.

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2766235]So you are saying the curtains matched the drapes?[/QUOTE]You are correct sir.

[QUOTE=Jbj64;2765974]I have a friend who is 29 only 1 tattoo and is looking to make some extra money for Christmas and for the new year. She is a single mom with 2 kids, I have known her for 4 years. She is not a pro, she works in a restaurant kitchen. She asked if I knew how she could make extra money. I thought I would put this out there. PM me for details and I will send a pic and her WA to contact her. She is asking for 250 mil per hour.[/QUOTE]I really want to know how she looks like but the math do not add up. A non pro asking 250 a hour is a lot. I know a lot of 21 year olds that ask twice less her amount about 110 a hour on websites.

But I guess she ask you to look for gringos because in the ends they do not even know they are being overcharged in a developing country.

You know she might earn for her job around 800 k to 1. 2 k per month. If she fucks for between 3-5 hours she got her monthly salary. The chicas are seeing you guys as ATM machines LOL.

[QUOTE=AmorPorFavor;2766349]Has anybody had success using a Wells card to get cash from ATM's?[/QUOTE]No problem getting cash with a WF debit card, albeit WF will charge like $ 5 USD on their end, and whatever the Colombian bank your withdrawing from charges. Colpatria / Scotia charged me 18,500 COP to withdraw 900,000 COP the other day in addition to the $ 5 USD WF charged me. Also no problem with BofA debit cards as well.

Also gustos isn't safe now? I've heard it's expensive but that's precisely why people say it's safe to take a girl from there home with you. At this point I'm just not going to trust anyone's advice on here haha just go with my gut instinct.

Heck, I could not even use it to pump gas on a rental car, outside LAX. When I called them, they said there was some suspicious activities on my card. What a bunch of BS.

I switched to Schwab debit card and I am so glad I did.

[QUOTE=JjBee62;2766414]If you want to try a thinking exercise, put some thought into it. Otherwise it falls apart.[/QUOTE]LOL. Talk about overthinking. Way to show why a hypothetical could not be a reality Jj!

[QUOTE=AmorPorFavor;2766349]Has anybody had success using a Wells card to get cash from ATM's?[/QUOTE]Worked fine for me in Colombia several years ago. I recall one evening in Medellin, when it didn't work at any ATM, but I later discerned it was a problem with the banking network as I noticed that locals were having problems too. But, I had no problems the next day. I switched to Chase around 3 years ago, and that worked fine in Colombia and Brazil. I have a Schwab card the and its worked fine for me, most of the time, since arrived in South America at the end of June. Haven't used my Chase card here, its only a my backup, because Schwab will refund the transaction fees. Only used a debit card once in Buenos Aires, the day after I arrived and it worked fine, though the transaction fee was upwards of $9 and $40 equals an awkward pile of cash. Of course you would not to want to withdraw money from an ATM in Argentina or use any debit or credit cards, period, under the current crisis. The way to go down there is to wire money to yourself via Western Union or change HARD FOREIGN CURRENCY "on the street". Otherwise banks, ATMs and legitimate currrency exchanges will only give you the official exchange rate, which is HALF the "blue rate". But, that's another story. The thing you need to realize is that ATMs don't always work, especially in South America.

It's not about your card, in my experience, its about the ATM network and which banks accept your card. Sometimes your card will work when the local guy who uses the same ATM before you walks away in frustration, because it won't process the transaction. During my four months in Brazil, I had to walk away from various ATMs empty handed. Other times in banks with several I had to try to use my card in any other several ATMs that had available (note in Brazil its common for bank branches to have multiple ATM lined up in the lobby) until I found one that worked. The only card I had problems with was my BBT card (now known at Truist) and I could never get cash out of any ATM with that, but it worked well for credit transactions at merchants. And note that in Brazil, only Santander and Bradesco are the only banks whose ATMs will give cash to foreign cards. Then there are private ATMs like the 24 Hour ATMs at the Brazilian grocery stores that work fine with foreign card but add a 15% markup on the transactions. I realize that this is a Colombian thread, but my point here is that in a foreign country, not all local banks will necessarily work with foreign debit cards.
