[QUOTE=Botti224;2826502]Hi,

I'm living in Bogot for a while and while I had a lot of sex here I didn't went to a Gangbang. It's really an experience I'm looking forward to make. So does anyone know some club /"organization" that organizes Gangbangs?

I'm especially interested in doing that in areas that are not the big cities but Bogot, Medellin etc. Would be better than nothing.[/QUOTE]Interested as well. There is some Reddit swinger reviews, not much to go on.

[QUOTE=FunLuvr;2828856]You stated in your post that you've had no problems with the check-mig website. For present day discussions, it matters if you were using the new or old form. I never had a problem with the old form. I still can't get the new form to go past step 4. I tried it on two computers and a cell phone, in both English and Spanish, being signed in and not being signed in. It's obvious an answer I'm giving is triggering a rejection, but the error I get is "Bad Gateway" rather than identifying the error.[/QUOTE]I don't know if it is new site or the old site. I am new to travel to Colombia. But now that I have made my first trip, I know I will be making lots more.

I am using a iPhone 14 Pro MaX 512 GB. I enter the chick-mig website I just follow the instructions and complete the entries. And just completed the form for my next flight without a problem. I was able to download my phone and received a email from Check-Mig.

Ok, so now I understand why your views on certain things that occur there was different. After you complete making more trips to Colombia, specifically Cartagena, I'm waiting to see if your views will stay the same LOL.

An hour wait to get out of the CTG airport. The line for Colombians was less than a minute long.

I had not used my Priority pass card before. CTG airport has a priority pass lounge. It is right next to the bakery with long lines. They have free finger food, wi fi, chairs and a sofa. It is okay. I would not pay for it but it is okay.

Bogota is a different story. The PP lounge there has a full bar, full menu, and when we entered, there were actually two women playing violins. This was such a high end experience I was afraid my step daughter to be would get spoiled. This was in the domestic wing of the Bogota airport.

I am sure most guys who fly to Colombia go through Fort Lauderdale. I got the Barclays American card and got like 60,000 free miles. I used them and went through Miami. I usually fly Spirit and upgrade to a nicer seat when I go through Lauderdale. Thing is I do not like the terminal there and often have been stuck there for hours at a time.

Miami has the American Express Centurion lounge and the AA lounges. I love the Amex lounges: good food, open bar, comfortable chairs, fast wi fi. Only downside is they are often crowded. Thing is the terminal that uses the cheaper South American flights like Avianca and latam do not have the lounges.

I live in Texas and the five hour direct flights wear me out unless I am in business class on the planes. This flight was smooth. Both flights were two and a half hours and in between I was in the comfortable Amex lounge sipping a cocktail, eating a good dinner, and reading on my tablet. When I touched down in Colombia and back here in Texas, I was relaxed and ready to run right off the plane. I cannot say that about my other flights. Those lounges can make a huge difference when you travel.

On my second trip to Colombia I arrived at MDE. After we deplaned followed everyone to stand in the visitors immigration line. I was only asked why I was visiting and how long would I be staying. I spent exactly 35 minutes in line (including the immigration processing and interview). I know because I timed it and made a note of it in order to add to the factual knowledge of this forum.

My plans are to eventually make a trip to Cali. But as I wrote in my trip report in the Medellin thread I enjoyed my trip.

With all due respect, I suspect you don't know jack about me unless you have read my extensive collection of posts in the Dominican Republic forum where I live. You see, when I visit Colombia, I am not come from a "sex prison" county. I come from a land of abundance when it comes to pussy. My initial visit to Colombia was because I had heard good things about it and I was curious. But as I have written: "Don't believe the hype".

I am an independent thinker that will not bow down to any amount of personal criticism nor change my thoughts in order to fit in and be "one of the boys". That simply is not possible with me. But if you are making reference to certain individuals who are choosing to exercise the privileges given by the passport issued to them from their respective countries, then my views on the individuals commenting about that will never change. I know, what they are trying to imply with their coded language.

But then after reading your post in this section of the forum it became clear why, and I understood. It was an invalid conversation due to I was speaking from a perspective of someone who has been going to Cartegena for about 5 years, 2 trips a year minimum, and I stay for 3 weeks minimum at a time and this was your first time in a completely different city so it was a complete misunderstanding on my part.

I don't venture into the DR thread which is why your name was unfamiliar to me. I've done my trips there and no plans to go back, the drama there got way too stupid among the men who kept acting like they were still in high school always trying to prove something to someone, always have to be the loudest person in the vicinity, even though they wrong they still want to be right, so Cartegena was my escape until the same type of individuals, mainly the ones that go to Sosua, started showing up in Cartegena with the same behavior after the pandemic.

As for your initial visit based on hearing good things, I'm going to guess you found out the many half truths about Medelin. Its basically a weekend place and it has to have the type of girls the gringo finds attractive. I tried it as well last year and it was not for me, the girls were not to my liking so I ended up flying in one of my Chicas from Cartegena and did sightseeing.

Well, maybe Cali will live up to the hype. Enjoy it for us both.

My entire purpose of being on ISG in the Dominican Republic thread to help people the way I got help in the beginning. After 10 years of "boots on the ground" living in the place, nobody can tell me jack about the Dominion Republic. So if you want to get the real deal about the place search for my posts over there. Or contact me directly. I keep a open mind about things other than [B]"Pussy is Pussy"[/B] and Man Law 101.

I like Medellin, but in my opinion it has been hyped up when it comes to the girls. But for me it is like a breath of fresh air. A fully functioning city, well organized and with solid infrastructure. I goto Medellin because I have a real girlfriend and a business there. Works out quite nicely for me. If I say so myself.

[QUOTE=Nypher;2833664]Well, maybe Cali will live up to the hype. Enjoy it for us both.[/QUOTE]Cali has no hype to live up to in my mind. I have one friend who lives there and another friend who visits there often. These are two sources of information that I trust about Cali and I met them in the Dominican Republic portion of the fourm. I know exactly what to expect. From the pictures of the girls to the description of day to day life in Cali I KNOW I will like it better than Medellin. I got my hands on some 15 year old rum there and I didn't even know they distilled rum in Colombia. So my trips so far have increased my life knowledge.

Hopefully this new base of understanding will facilitate our communication in the future.

Since there doesn't appear to be an Aruba thread, I'll post my findings here.

I'm currently on a short dive trip in Aruba. Had some free time last night and decided to at least do a quick survey of the local red light district. First, I'll add some basics about Aruba.

Flight time from Miami is about 3 hours, 2 hours from Bogota or Medellin. English is widely spoken and dollars are accepted everywhere. The exchange rate is fixed at 1. 8 Florin per dollar. Ask if the price is in florin or dollars. Most places give change in dollars, except for coins.

Almost everything is expensive, but not horribly so. I've seen 1 police officer since arriving. There doesn't seem to be a visible police presence. Everywhere feels safe.

The main tourist areas are near the airport in Oranjestad and in the hotel zone in Noord. It's recommended you rent a car, if you're planning to explore the island. The landscape isn't much. Lots of cactus and a few trees. The wind is always blowing and temperatures are mid 80's, with slightly high humidity. Tap water is safe to drink.

The red light district is on the east end of the island in San Nicholas. Without traffic, 35-40 minutes driving will get you there. A good landmark to find Is Charlie's Bar. It's not part of the scene, but it's easy to find.

The area is 4 blocks wide and 6 blocks long. At the eastern end is a normal bar called Fan, on Lagoweg street. Nuyenstraat is at the west end. Some of the streets are one way.

My survey consisted a walk through and drive through between 6 7 pm and another drive through around 9 pm, complete with 2 club visits. Probably 30 working girls on the streets, many street walkers, others working at clubs. If you're driving through, or walking through, the women will approach you. Several appeared to be working in front of short time rooms. Others, I assume, might do car sex. The clubs appear to have minimal rooms available.

Most, if not all the girls are Colombian and I would guess the average age at somewhere above 25. Most were average looking, with a few who I found very attractive.

The 2 bars I visited were empty. 2 girls inside the first, 3 or 4 outside the second. Beers were reasonable, about $4. They were both small places. I didn't ask prices, but 1 girl offered a strip show for $40. At a guess, I'd say $60-$100 could be negotiated.

If you're planning a mongering trip, don't go to Aruba. If you have some other reason to visit, and looking to scratch an itch, San Nicholas is where to go.

The exchange rate is down from a high of 5000 to just a hair above 4000 that is a drop of 20% in about a year, an incredible drop. I'm not a currency guy but It has to be the Liberal administrations out of control spending and fiscal policy in general. I wish I could say the rate of slide down can't continue but nothing on the horizon seems to say it won't. Do any of your currency guys see any good news coming?

Now it is 4000 which is 15% higher than the date when the current admin took over. Do they get credit for that? So you are complaining about the drop from 5000 to 4000 but happy about the move from 3500 to 5000 under the same administration? I am not sure what your point is.

You do understand that you are describing that the COP has claimed 20% against the dollar. I do not see how that is negative if you are Colombian. If you are not referring to the political administration running Colombia then you are in the wrong thread. There are two sides to every trade. One side wins, One side loses. Right now the people of Colombia are winning. You have to look at the macro and micro aspects of the economy in Colombia that might be bidding up the price of the COP in the currency markets.

Because if you think it is just because of what the USD is doing you need to expand your perspective. Worldwide the USD versus other currencies vary and is not universal. For example currently in the Dominican Republic the USD is on fire and the DOP is dropping like a rock.

Not Petro or the benefit of the high peso for Colombians. It was meant for a comparison or USD and COP only, and Americans exchange dollars for pesos.
