[/QUOTE]-In the Google map, you call it Bouddha Spa, today is the estudio Salud Integral. Same address in the building Torre Lincoln.

-There is no name at this address: Masaspa, Villa Flor, in the Eastern Professional office building. This brothel is located about a block from the Gran Melia Hotel, Av. Casanova. This is a estudio, it called Estudio Bella Donna.

How is the girl quality in these studios? Prices are really low.

I stayed at Embassy Suites (Hilton group) because they have rooms with balcony and I could book from home ([URL]hotels.com[/URL]). It is centrally located between Metro stations Chacao and Chacaito on Av Miranda in a reasonabaly safe area. For checkin they asked for my credit card, what I denied, telling them I will pay in cash. 18th and 19th floor has room with open terrace for having a smoke, lower floors have kind of closed balconies. Embassy Suites is not new, but some maintainance is done, I could't lock the balcony door in none of the rooms I stayed, but locked my valuables in the safety box no issues. It was 100% girlfriendly, just call a decent looking lady with cedula and meet her at the entrance for registration no fee, my booking was for 2 persons. Remark: please take into account that things are always changing in Venezuela.

Issues: kitchen smell in the room, I guess because of being close to the roof. Limited selection of beverages one night no beer was available, but this is Venezuela. I could NOT book more nights at the front desk, instead I was told to do the booking online, but for that you have to be HHonour member. I had to book with a travel agency, what was quite time consuming because of endless communication between travel agency and hotel; this happened two times. Easy to exchange money there, just ask the concierge or security, 200-250 less then dollartoday rate. BTW I recommend NOT to come to Venezuela if you don't at least speak basic spanish.

Agencies, hmm calling them that might be a little bit far fetched, lot of them are not professional in the western sense, often they would not answer your call, the cheaper ones are simply pimps stuffing an apartment with some girls and controlling them. Badgirls seems to be more professional, but then you pay 45000 Bfs for the hour. In afterthought I might have used there service, because for that amount I expect their chicas being really decent, but while staying in CCS with so many cheaper options I just wanted to try these. Further an hour passes fast and I had all but one chicas staying for more than 1 hour. The exception was the best looking one that I invited in PDC, nice to look at, but disappointing in the sack. I guess, this triggered my decision as well, but well you have to try to find out.

Agencies I dealt with:

Dra Rojas 04243727652, Angeles 5500/ h 2000 taxi. Should have been in the hotel 10 pm, arrived 30 minutes late, mirrored the description in the profile, MILF but nice tits and few stretch marks only. Her face is not that pretty and she is a negrita, from the fotos I expected a morena. Soon I upgraded for TLN being 30000 + taxi. TLN meant until 6 am. Although in the interview she said she would not do frenchkissing, she did later as well as shower together and BBBJ.

Guerreras, chica was supposed to show at 10 pm for 3 hours, several calls and texts exchanged with the agency, after 90 minutes I canceled the date, what kind of pissed them off, but you have to show some balls when things like that happen. 90 minutes, HELLO, I guess they pushed in a regular customer. I had to call it a night as well, because with the order process being so slow, at that point another chica was no option.

Brulant 7000/ h chica was supposed to show at 10 pm, taking into account what happened the day before I called at 10:25 and told them if the chica does not call from the reception in 15 minutes I would cancel. She arrived, but with no cedula. So the staff denied acess to the room until it was delivered 10 minute later by a guy. Hmmm, maybe she was not the girl I had ordered, but you can't see the faces in their profiles, but being naked she did not fit the profile. But she liked to fuck, agreed to BBBJ for a propina and I upgraded to 2 hours. TLN would have been ADDITIONAL 30000.7000/ h plus 2000 taxi.

Estudios.

While in CCS I decided to give the Estudios a try. You have to call them to get the adress and then the chicas on the webpage are not available.

Estudio Beautiful Chacaito 0424.202. 48.36 De*Lunes a Viernes*de 10 am a 6:30 pm Edificio Union piso 3, officina 31 Av Abraham Lincoln.

1 hora, 2 relax BS. 2. 500,oo (Incluye 1 Relax Hindu why 1 relax francs).

Walk east of Qebrada Chacaito (pedestrian area), pass Calle Chacaito and then it is on the left side. A language school is in the same building, a chicken restaurant on the other side of the street. The lift will not stop at the 3rd floor, either take the stairs or walk down from 5th floor. Ring the buzzer, they will let you in, lead you to the waiting area, where you get the lineup after a few minutes. 6 chicas, easy decision, Natasha, petite body, 1 baby, pretty face and nice smile. She led me to a basic room with AC, bed and massage table, no shower in the room. She left, came back a few minutes later and asked if there are any rules everything covered, no upgrade to BBBJ, no frenchkissing. So, no passionate sex but not a starfish either. I came only once, but an hour being short, that is what I expected. At the end we exchanged numbers and she agreed to meet me after work if I desire, 3000/ h TLN 25000 plus taxi 2000. I didn't call her, so I don't know, if she really was ready to meet me or would had made excuses, tired, to take care of the baby, blablabla.

One night I met Haitek's friend at Centro Comerciale Bello Campo, after dinner we went to the 2 clubs downstairs (planta sotano). First one was bigger, more upscale, but less of a fun vibe. Some nice chicas hanging around, the more desperate / less pretty ones might approach you, at 10:30 a chica gave a nice performance on the stage. As far as I remember 25000/ h.

El Canagua club, also in CC Bello Campo, I liked it and it fits Haitek's desccription, but 15000/ h plus 8400 for the room, Haitek mentioned 14000 room incl. When I was told Inhad to pay for the room as well, I stopped the deal just too expensive for CCS considering the other options. But a fun night anyway.

Conclusions I am not as wild as Haitek prefering GFE and not into group sex. Also older mid fifties. To sum it up, as already mentioned Venezuela although being cheap, it is not mongers paradise. CCS giving the most options but keep in mind the safety issues there, although I was lucky having no issues. Neither the agencies nor the estudios are point and click, you will have to do a lot of calls. I just like barhopping, easy walk from one place to the next one, like you can do in BKK, PTY, PNH or AC, Subic. VDS (Margarita) is not the Medellin Mansion, but if some hobbists are there gives you some options, 1 h chicas delivered by Mariella and sometimes chicas staying for a few days you can do TLN with. Robert and Volker are nice guys to deal with and I think that is very important in Venezuela, you just need some local contacts, like Haiteks friend P the frenchman, we really got along well with each other and now I consider him being a friend.

I think what is needed is some more field research, check out the estudios and get the adresses and chica numbers, quite a few of them are willing to hook you up with amigas. I think it has a lot of potential, as well in the other areas I. E. Chichiriviche. I guess a group of friends can have a lot of fun there, hiring a boat for 100 $ aday and inviting some semi pros. That is what one chica working at a good hotel there told me. I think I will visit Venezuela again in a few years, maybe there are some changes in a few month. Last not least I met a lot of honest people giving me money back when I miscounted. Tipping: sometimes the receptionnist did not accept tips, generally I found 200 Bfs to be a good tip. Some of the chicas mentioned 30-40 $ tips what I find way too much. But I guess this were guys whi have no idea about Venezuela because you should pay everything in Bfs.

Thanks to all who contributed, especially Haitek and Britisher.

Smily59.[/QUOTE]You are welcome Smily, I'm glad to meet you in Isla Margarita and certainly we will meet again somewhere else to fuck sexy girls.

As you mentionned it, the big potential is to get chicas phone numbers and call them or keep in touch throught Whatapps the next day. I found that when I meet the chicas outside of their working places (estudio or club), I get the best of both world, PSE and GFE.

Smily59.[/QUOTE]Chica's price is very irrational in Venezuela, nothing is guaranted. For exemple, Rose Angelis, the former Miss Margarita, charged Robert 45000 bvs, but the next day she asked me only 25000 bvs.

[QUOTE=Kako123;1852431]How is the girl quality in these studios? Prices are really low.[/QUOTE]Similar to casas in Madellin's centro or Bogota's zona de tolerancia.

Smily59.[/QUOTE]Thank you Smily 59. Well appreciated your detailed post.

Can you please post a step by step description of (in case you did) - to procure a sim card and add balance in to it?

Where in CCS?

I had Venezuelan sim card but I can not find it any more.

This happened yesterday, just outside the Maiquetia International Airport. An Egyptian traveller just had arrived from Germany, stepped outside the international terminal, was walking towards the national terminal to take another plane, and as you can see in the video a biker interecepted him and tried to rob his luggage, and in the struggle was shot dead by the thug. He wasn't doing anything needlesly risky, or going to a bad place, anything stupid, just walking between buildings because he needed to. And for that he died.

Goddamn, this is infuriating. How can I (or any other Venezuelan) keep recommending people to come here, when such bullshit happens. A tourist would believe that at least the airport would be safe but NOPE, unfortunately that isn't the case. Watching the video is madness. I mean, how can it be possible that some biker is waiting outside the airport like that, in plain sight and obvious ill-intent, and no authority had approached him. Again, this is bullshit of the worst kind.

As a Venezuelan, I feel deeply ashamed by this pointless death. We are truly getting worse and worse as a country.

I tell them I go there for work and I am very heavily compensated to put my life at risk. But I would never go there for mongering. Plain and simple.

I had Venezuelan sim card but I can not find it any more.[/QUOTE]I asked the concierge of my hotel where to buy a movistar prepaid sim, he told me to go to sambil mall (close to my hotel, but later I saw a movistar shop in the centro comercial just opposite of embassy suites). I went to sambil, take your passport with you and be prepared it takes hours. The shop is at the first floor, there is a sitting area, first register as a customer, tell them what you want, hand over the passport. They will give you a ticket and tell you to sit down until your number is shown on the screen. If it is your turn just go to the booth mentioned on the screen. They will show you a paper with the diffrent packages, I did choose 30 days with 2 Gigabyte data and bought 2 of them, because I wanted to use my old cellphone as well without changing the sim cards. Your contract does not end after 30 days, but after asking they explained me it is no problem if I stop paying, this means only that my sim will expire. Some paperwork and signatures and you have to wait again. Finally I was called to another booth got the simcards for which I payed a small amount, but this was for the cards only. To activate them I was told to go to a pharmatodo, a pharmacy in the ground floor of sambil and pay there for the packages. Yes, a pharmacy! They have a movistar terminal where you can pay cash, just follow the instructions on the screen, but when I wanted to buy Aspirine they told me they have none that is Venezuela. To this point it took 3 hours. The phone was active soon, but I could not use the data. Next day when at Characito metro station I saw a Movistar shop and asked them to fix this, what they did. My guess is, it would have been faster and easier to go to one of the small movistar shops mentioned above. But if this is true you have to find out by yourself, anyway getting a sim was one of the first things I did in CCS and I was not aware of the other shops. Hope that helps, but being a foreigner did not seem to be a problem as long as you speal spanish.

[QUOTE=Smily59;1856599]but when I wanted to buy Aspirine they told me they have none that is Venezuela. To this point it took 3 hours.[/QUOTE]Last time I've seen Aspirins in a drugstore here in Venezuela was five years ago, perhaps even more than that.

Since still I did not arrived in Caracus. But m in need of following infos. Will be grateful if I have those before I arrive.

1. Does the banks in Venezuela facilitate with Internal Wire Transfer of Bolivars?

2. In case of TT how much times / days requires to be available in account?

3. Does any one be able to deposit cash money in respective account?

These are for local currency not for international currency. In every case what mandatory info about the account holder would be in need for the depositor.

If so, yes, all Venezuelan banks allow for such operations. If the transfer is between two accounts of the same bank, should be instantaneous. If from different banks, expect the cash to be available in 24 hours (could be a bit more or less, depending of the banks in question). Such transfers are done through e-banking systems.

Did not understand your third question, sorry.
