Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=Combo;2778869]The thing is -snip- you are really rich compared to them. It's been discussed before that a typical Colombian makes the equivalent of about $200-250 USD a month. So even if you're a gringo of modest means, you can afford more pussy than you can handle.[/QUOTE]So to those who believe that the girls in Provenza, who party at Sixttina are average, make $250/ month. LOL. Need your money? Think again. Or stay in Centro. You are a minority scraping the bottom WG's of Colombia. ELEVATE your mindset. Enjoy the real Colombia. It's there when you open your minds. AND YOUR WALLETS and it's still affordable.

Guys,

I want to say thank you. The recent reports have sufficiently scared the shit out of me. Haha and I don't scare easily. Those that know me know I'm not the most cautious monger. I'm not particularly foolish (most of the time) but I operate with little fear. I use caution and trust my gut. But based on these reports, and some real time info from some amigas living in Medellin, I do think we're in a time where crimes against mongers are elevated. As others have said, we are attractive targets.

I haven't really thought this through so I'm just throwing an idea out there. Many of us, myself included, travel alone. When I'm in country, even many of my "real life" friends and family do not know my location. But I'm wondering if there is an opportunity to help each other out. As I think through this, I'm not sure it would work. Nor would it necessarily prevent anything. But I wonder if there is something we can do to "check in" with another monger in the country. My activities probably put me at a higher risk. I love going to the bars, drinking and partying with the girls. I enjoy that very much and without that, I'm not sure how frequently I would visit. I'm aware of the risk and I'm willing to take those risks. One thing I do is befriend the bouncers or doormen. They will absolutely look out for you if you treat them well and offer a small tip. (I can give examples! LOL) I'm not one of those obnoxious American drunks at all. I'm low key, I don't make a scene, etc. But I have had a night or two where I probably should have been robbed or drugged because I partied a little too hard.

My suggestion: is there any value in texting or messaging a fellow in-country monger to say here are my plans, here's when I should be back, and if you don't hear from me by a certain time, call the hotel staff for a wellness check? Like I said, I can envision many challenges to this. But I do want to think out of the box. We got a good thing in MDE and I worry that this uptick in druggings and robberies is a trend that can upset the apple cart.

[QUOTE=Anthony2023;2778810]You should have made the tramp take a sip of the beer when you asked her about it. "No I didn't touch" "alright bih take a sip" LOL.[/QUOTE]If she agreed to take a sip I would have prevented her. The last thing you want is a drugged puta in your hotel room.

This is the wiser perspective. It is sometimes difficult to see past momentary instincts of anger and vengeance.

Provenza is the real Colombia?

First time poster here. Hoping to get some advice. Been mongering since '97 or so, mostly here in the US and have had a few sketchy experiences but nothing terrible. Have had 1 experience overseas and it was fine. Not great but not bad either.

I recently visited Medellin and Cartagena in a capacity that I wasn't able to engage in any mongering but I saw the opportunities first hand as I was able to go out in parque Lleras and in old city Cartagena. I have an opportunity to go back to Medellin very soon, like next 10 days or so and am planning on going for 3 nights. I've tried to read as much as I possibly could and generally do not try to be on any radar but this is my first time traveling out of the country where mongering will be a primary focal point of the trip and I'll be solo, so I want to be as cautious as possible. I actually read VJ's report below and would love to meet up with any of you who may be there, so I'm not totally alone in navigating this trip. Plus I think there's probably a little more safety in numbers.

I've read quite a bit about New Life and some of the strip clubs in centro. Thoughts on those places? I spent a little bit of time in centro last trip but didn't even notice those places. Obviously I saw the street girls but I've heard New Life and the strip clubs are a slightly higher caliber. Can anyone comment on their experiences there? Also I wouldn't mind a massage and then some action, I've read some good things about some of the massage parlors.

Last time I stayed in an Airbnb for a few nights and there was lots of signage about no sex tourism but I don't think they would have known since there was just a door with a code. I also stayed at an American hotel chain for a night and I think they would have stopped anyone from coming in altho I could be wrong. I have not booked a place to stay yet and would absolutely love some good ideas. I've read, it's better to not bring someone from parque Lleras back to your Airbnb or hotel but rather an hourly love motel. But I haven't seen any real advice on where there is one and how much these cost etc etc. So any advice here would be greatly appreciated especially in regards to where to bring someone you meet while your out and definitely where to stay because I'd like to get something booked before I arrive.

Finally any other advice people with experience would like to offer I'm all ears. I'm a frequent traveler, I've been all over the world except to Asia, I've also been a frequent monger, for over 20 years, but I'm also very cautious. Being drugged or robbed is a big concern I have for this trip. Planning on taking as many precautions as possible including deleting all financial apps from my phone and trying to be as aware as possible. Not leaving drinks unattended, not drinking alcohol or other drinks around girls. I'm not looking to develop ongoing mongering relationships with anyone or spend hours with anyone, just enjoy the sex and go (or have them go). Thanks and if you are going to be in Medellin soon, let me know, I'd love to meet some fellow mongers to go out with.

[QUOTE=Turgid;2779295]If she agreed to take a sip I would have prevented her. The last thing you want is a drugged puta in your hotel room.[/QUOTE]Correct answer. I've seen the story several times about the guy switching beers so the girl drugged herself. I doubt it ever happened. And it's definitely the last thing you want to do. Get rid of the girl, call the police if you must, but don't try to drug her.

Think about it. I'm 6'4" and 225#. I can guarantee, if a girl is in my room she's at least 110# lighter. Chances are she will use enough of the drug to make sure I go down, almost certainly a dangerous overdose. Put that same amount in a person half my size and there's a good chance I'm dealing with a dead girl. Even if she just gets part of the dosage, what do you do with an unconscious girl who needs medical attention? And how will the police respond?

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2779307]Provenza is the real Colombia?[/QUOTE]Can you even get Colombian food in Provenza?

[QUOTE=Anthony2023;2779197]Good advice about not drinking in the apartment. I have a question did any of them spent the night with you? I know obviously that wouldn't be the smartest thing to do but I'm wondering how many people here have done it with out any problems.[/QUOTE]This was my first time in Medellin, so I wouldn't have felt comfortable with one staying the night. On my next trip, I will have one stay with me for a couple days (outside of Medellin) but I already have all her basic info and will get a copy of her ID when I book the place. I know this sounds dangerous to some guys, but I've done it before with two girls from Bogota. Again, I'll take all precautions and I have a certain level of trust with this one.

Yeah I'm feeling a little iffy about it but I did some digging going thru a chicks Facebook the other day that wants to spend the night and I seen she has her main family as friends on it going back years, so at least I know she's not on a back up account. Still you have to have your guard up tho.

[QUOTE=Turgid;2779295]If she agreed to take a sip I would have prevented her.

I meant just to see what her reaction would be if you asked her to. That's how you know if there was something in it or not.

Not one minute during those few hours did someone come to me and say since you are here enjoying this real Colombia, you need to open your wallet. Maybe your mindset is scraping the bottom of what Colombia has to offer. Elevate it!

I would also like to know what's the nicest closest hourly love motel to parque Lleras. I hear people talk about Ibiza but I don't know how far that is.

I'll be down there around the same time. Looking for maybe someone who would like to spilt a bottle at Isla since I won't be drinking much. Also go to this cigar lounge in Poblado I've heard about if anyone is into that.

El Corral, or some of the convenience stores between the bars microwave homemade arepas.
