Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2781415]Definitely incoherent. How can different discussions in a forum cause a person not to get laid? With all the cheap casas and strip clubs around, the only excuse is staring you in the mirror. According to your reports, you are causing yourself not to get laid. Next time try leaving the hotel before declaring it is impossible to get laid without being there 3 years. Well I can't even say that. Because in Rio you did leave the hotel and had other board members guiding you around, yet still made all the excuses why you could not get laid; one being that $40 for a chick that ticked all your boxes was too expensive.[/QUOTE]Bro you got to know you're really fucking up when even Mr. E is ready to call you cheap LOL! Sounds like you needed to stay home until you could get your money all the way right. Because I don't care what anybody says. When you add it all up (travel, lodging, meals, poontang, miscellaneous) overseas mongering is relatively expensive. And if you can't fork over $40 for a chica who otherwise ticks all your boxes because that costs too much, then you're in the wrong hobby bro. Just saying.

[QUOTE=YngMong;2781267]I arrive at 0700 into MDE (Jan 30th) and booked my first night at the Mansion. They don't allow early check-in (Check-in is at 3 pm) although maybe I can give the front desk a nice tip and see if they can help me out. I don't want to waste any time getting to fun. They said my belongings would be safe at the front desk but I'm a little hesitant to leave passport, cards, cash etc and sure as hell not going to go out with it all on me.

Any ideas how I can safely store my stuff and go on the prowl. I guess worst case I could find a cheap hotel for a few hours.

Where is the best place to get a local sim card and exchange cash?[/QUOTE]Getting sim is real easy, although not sure how far you would have to walk or cab from the Mansion. Basically, any store you see that has sign of Tigo, Claro will have a sim (usually 5000 peso) + recagar (recharge) for 20-40 mil depends on how many days you want.

As far as exchange cash, I use ATM for best conversion and convenient. Your bank might charge you ATM fee 5-10 usd or whatever, MAKE SURE you decline conversion rate (high mark up from ATM).

I don't see there is a big issue leaving your luggage at the Mansion and venture out. If you are concern about that then you can buy a small TSA lock to lock your luggage, it's cheap on amazon.

I agree there should be no problem with dropping luggage at the desk. There are several currency exchange places at Oviedo mall, 5 minutes walk away.

However, he might want to recargar his phone. Recagar would mean "to shit again. ".

Thanks for the report. Did you have any issues with bringing in the girls? Planning a trip for next month and looking at either Hotel Park 10 or Intercontinental.

[QUOTE=Playboy2021;2641728]First time poster, long time reader. As I am concluding five months in Medellin I thought I would share what I have been up to.

About me: mid thirties, work remotely, experienced monger, conversational Spanish skills. Not my first time in Colombia. Previously short trips to Bogota and Cartagena.

I stayed in Poblado close to Provenza and Parque Lleras. I highly recommend Lettera Hotel. I do not recommend Dann Carlton, 23 Hotel. Charlee Hotel or Park 10.

I also stayed at the Intercontinental in Las Palmas which I liked but it's not walking distance to Provenza / Lleras. Great restaurant and grill there. Big pool. Gym. Very nice.

Primary hunting ground was Seeking. Lots of girls available. Negotiated up front and then sent them an Uber and had them dropped off directly at my hotel. Very easy. Very efficient.

I spent a lot of time at Parque Lleras when I first arrived. Highly amusing but gets old after a few weeks. Tons and tons of girls on the weekends. It's certainly a sight to see. I recommend the hookah bar with green lights with a perfect view of the busiest corner in the park. Invite a girl up for a drink and send her back if she's not for you. A hundred more are waiting.

Casas: Checked out Newlife but didn't like any of the girls. Paid the viewing fee and left. Went to Spa Energias. Didn't like the line up but picked a young Venezuelan. Never returned to either casa.

Went to Loutron's one night. Small line up. Mostly girls who had been operated on. Not my style but picked a girl. Terrible service. Upsold me but failed to deliver the goods. Had the audacity to ask me for a tip at the end. Do not recommend this establishment.

Checked out La Isla but left within 15 minutes of arrived. The girls started harassing me for tips before I had even gotten a drink and watched a dance.

The girls at the Do Men's Spa below Diez Hotel in Poblado are available for whatever you can negotiate. The massages however are mediocre.

Overall, I had a great time here. I definitely recommend visiting Medellin. Having said that, I prefer la playa why el sol. Headed to the DR next.[/QUOTE]

So just doing the research online here are some answers. First if you have a newer phone it has esim capabilities, I've used it in Mexico. What's nice about it is, there is no changing or a card, you can have it ready to work as soon as you land, it will connect to the local network and there are different packages you can choose from, Also no need to register it with your passport locally. I think the drawback is you can't actually makes calls its only data driven but you can still use WhatsApp, facebook, instagram. Thats what I will be doing when I arrive when I'm out and about. When at my airbnb wifi is king.

I know its been talked about but the best exchange rate is an ATM, If you don't have a card though that picks up the ATM fees then it may add up in the long run. I know my bank can order currency but their exchange rate sucked. You maybe be able to find a currency exchange place (San Francisco is suppose to have one) but you might get charged a fee to do it. ATM the best way to go though.

I had a flight to and from MDE, but it was cancelled. I went to their website and they have no flights out of MDE after the first week.

Anyone know what is going on?

I texted them to get my refund, and they told me it had something to do with COVID cases in Medellin.

Emerelda.

180 + 100 propina for oral naturale (yeah I know).

I'the been pounding some of my regulars and decided I wanted to see a line up.

Nothing really caught my eye except for this super cute button-nose light cinnamon paísa. She was petite with extra perky be cups that were pierced. We get to the room.

And she was just all business. Her body.

Was tight a cute little ass you could use as a. Nightstand. She gave me a massage on my back that lasted 3 min, did the flip.

Then rubbed my Johnson. She reaches for the rubber but I ask for oral naturale. Hits me with 100 mil! I swear this is the standard energy markup. Ok I paid it, I will say her mouth was smooth except this BJ lasted like 45 seconds. On the rubber went, she was tight but man it was just nothing there, no passion. Tried to do missionary and same with doggy with That gourgeous ass but damn wasn't really into it. Took the rubber off and had her finish me off. The hand job wasn't even good and I had to do it myself to get close and then let her drive for the finish. If you see her. Just pass.

Emmy 500 k SA.

Been on a streak with girls in seeking I pretty much only go there now. Something about light eyes paísa that makes me go extra hard.

We talked back and forth. She lives in the south so it's like an extra hour for her to get To my place. We had been chatting for a while. I asked that she not dress like a prepago and dress conservative, she more then passed that test. She wore a black sweater with a white collar underneath (I would later find out the white collar shirt was actually a fake shirt that is really a bra made to look like a colllared shirt (in guessing something a webcammer might wear etc) and a short jean skirt. We had some drinks, talked and made out. Finally we were getting down to biz. She agreed to BB and I showed her my test. It was on. She is 5 2 and weighrs like 103 lbs. But let me tell you when she took off that shirt and collar I couldn't belive she was hiding perfect full see natural tits! Light pink brown nips that matched her super light skin. She started with a massage but without lotion is wasn't enjoyable. Then she flipped me and gave me an amazing BJ that lasted like 15 minutes. She sucked and I wanted to give her a facial. She was horny and she saw my test from before so we hopped right on. Her Pussy is like silk and I can see a little pussy juice on my cock from the first insertion. I didn't last lost and pulled out and shot an 8 ropper all over her perky natural tits. She stayed like almost the whole night but I needed her gone because I had a flight to catch in the AM. SA is the best place for BB to be honest.

There are quick and easy brothels in El Centro that have been discussed here such as New Energy. You don't have to know anything, just the address of these casas like New Energy. Why.

Where the heck is New Energy? Never heard of it.

Dispute the credit card charge and use the money to buy a ticket on Jet Blue.

New Life is in Centro, whereas Energy is in Estadio area. But the point is valid, with proper address one can find these. Taxi drivers can anyway. Most of the time. On foot it is a challenge until you learn the address system, which has been covered on this forum in the past. And if you are looking for business sign or something to tell you that you are at the right place. Don't bother. Almost without exception these places have nothing to indicate you are at the right place, other than a buzzer, or door you can open and a buzzer inside to go through the next door.

Does anyone know of a place in Medellin similar to Nanxing (Bogota)?

As of last month when I hunted for airfare, Mexico's Viva Aerobus had same disclaimer for MEX-MDE "This route is suspended until further notice" but their MEX-BOG was still available. May have to infiltrate via Bogota then take a bus / plane to get to Medellin.

[QUOTE=CenTexCrash;2781338]Incoherently written first timer recap by a hobbyist seasoned around the globe.

I try to RTFF but also Colombia threads bloated with users off topic flame war each other really threw a wrench in my conquest.

A week before my flight I did the ISG strat to send friend requests on FB and out of 80 requests, 2 confirmed me day before flight. That's when I knew this might get a little bumpy.

Ultimately my past hobby xp of parachute into a locale, check into hotel, and meet girl an hour later kind of ruined me. That approach simply doesn't exist in Medellin.

Medellin is not a quick strike setting. It requires time, commitment, other re $ources to a point to indulge you have to plan on Medellin being your only hobby destination and have no time to hobby outside of Colombia.

The ISGers speaking highly of Medellin didn't bud overnight. Their black book took months or years or expat abroad status to have connections they're enjoying. If you're one of those congrats. Keep doing what you're doing and I salute and envy you.

However if you're a casual once every 3-5 years type visitor, Medellin might not bear the results you were hoping to indulge. There are options, but they're geared more towards locals who are too drunk to care if the girl doesn't match girl in pics. And overpriced escorts too..[/QUOTE]There is some truth to this but its not all doom for virgin trippers. I think you will still wet your wicker considering so many online options for delivery (FB, tinder, CC, PP etc) but the quality of experiences are usually better for those that have built their black book over the years.

T...[/QUOTE]Cash: If you have to exchange cash. You can exchange some at the airport. Like others have said, ATM will be better.

SIM card:

There used to be a place similar to a bookstore or something on the second floor that you can get SIM card in the airport . You have to ask because it may not be on display. You can kill sometime while trying to find it but I don't know if it is still there.

Once you are in the city, if it is still early and you want to kill some time. Go to Botero Plaza to sightseeing. There is a WOM store by the white church Veracruz. They usually have staff that can speak English. You can pay 20 mil for 30 days or whatever days you need for less cost, but you need to have your passport with you. This will register your phone in their system so it won't be locked after 30 days. The official stores like this are more like full service and stores of this provider usually are less busy. The other providers often have longer lines I think because they offer more services

There is a cafe that is part of the museum. You can order something and sit on the patio to people watch if you have time to kill.

There are many neighborhood stores that sell SIM. These are like the airport one, and they may be able to help you setup SIM card and put data in your SIM.

Then there are street vendors. Yo can only buy SIM which is normally 5 mil but you can get it for 3 mil in some places. You need to go to GANA to show your phone number and name of the provider to put data on the phone. I think the least expensive plan is 5 mil. GANA is everywhere so you won't miss it.

Pictures:

The for sale sign next to the 000 is the WOM store location. You can see the white Veracruz church to the left.

You can kill more time to have lunch at the restaurant across from the white church. You can see all the actions from the patio, bring your binoculars. This picture is old. It now has a glass walkway.

Inflation has certainly caused Airbnb and hotel pricing to go up. The thing that gets to me is that its not 5 to 10%, a good number of Airbnb apartments are now priced 20 to 30% higher. This is especially true if its a new project or building. Most of the really good one bedroom or studios are no less than 80 a night, similar ones were 50 a night last year. I think someone mentioned Jan 1 being the time when govt allowed businesses to reprice their offerings. A number of apartments in primero park Laureles, Belen, Manila, Poblado and conquistadores neighborhoods are up at least 15%.

Perhaps we should all move to Bello. Jejejee.

How is Buenos Aires area? Esp. With the tram system that opened in 2021 I think its a very accessible part of the city close enough to Centro.

Hope this is temporary. And certainly, usd is not the sweet 5.2 cop it was 3 months ago.
