The Hungarian kid, holy shit does he get on my nerves. It seems like he hasn't left his moms house until just now. He's 31 and can not for the life of him figure a damn thing out on his own. I'm about to tell him he has a limit of 10 questions he's allowed to ask a day. That's almost all he does when he talks, is ask questions. He asked how to make chicken, at 31 years old! When he's not asking questions, he's complaining about something, whether it be the food, how flakey the girls are, or how he doesn't want to spend $12 on dinner. Today we were down town and we told him an area was dangerous. His response, "Why is it dangerous?" Are you fucking kidding me?! I'll tell you what, go walk down the street with your wallet in your hand, you'll see why it's dangerous. The old mans response was, "It's just dangerous, what the hell else is there to know?!" I'm cutting him off from going out with me at night as I'm afraid he'll actually cause me to loose women. He's just so strange. His movements make you feel uncomfortable, he's super stiff and awkward, just very timid in general. He doesn't grasp the concept of personal space. He won't look you in the eyes while talking to you. His accent is horrendous and he talks so damn soft with such little confidence, it's hard to understand him (Though that's easier to look past because I'm sure I have a pretty bad accent in Spanish), I always have to repeat myself 3 times because he doesn't understand a damn thing I'm saying. And every time he opens his mouth I want to back hand him. After all his talk about how easy the girls in Colombia will be, he started picking up hookers into his 3rd day here when he realized that Colombian girls are just as hard to pick up as Hungarian girls probably are, and when you have 0 game, it's pretty damn hard. He's been to the whore house 2 days in a row. He had one girl he was talking to and I told him to take her out. He said, "It's cheaper to just go get a hooker. I spent COP$100 on my last date." SMH...
Holy, sh*t. That whole paragraph had me laughing.
Good work InternationPlayboy, that is some of the funniest sh*t I have read on here in a while.
This is why travel is great. So much funny sh*t happens. And you run into so many trippy characters.

So now it's just the old dude and the Hungarian kid. Old dude is still cool. I came to find out a good portion of his girls are pre-pagado, and he also likes his whores. It's hilarious how he brags about them like he isn't paying for them. "Look at this one I got!" Yeeeaaahhhh.... sure bud. But it's whatever, to each his own. He's an old dude, probably paid his dews and is quite successful (Collects on over 25 rental properties, makes close to $17k a month), so good for him, he's sure as hell enjoying Medellin.
yep and there it is...get used to it. loads of guys go to colombia and go on about how much they scored, post up photos look at this one, look at that one how easy it is one and even if they aren't paying directly they are paying in other ways. thinking they are studs and have game etc etc hilarious
there's nothing wrong with paying and forking out $ for sluts but dudes that go on about it like they are the shit need to shut the fuck up cause these girls arent with them for their busted arsehole wrinkly heads.

I agree.
I think I am in the minority on here.
I have never found Colombian girls to be easy. It blows my mind when people say they are.
I really wonder how many guys truly "kill it" in Colombia without internet Game.
Almost every report you read starts off with "So my first date was with a girl I met off Colombianstupid.com....."

You are right G. In fact, girls are really not that flakey if you understand the context. Sometimes a girl just plainly doesn't trust you. Girls are not really approached here in bars. You meet them at a friend's party or through them, in such a way that they trust you and not flake anymore, that is how it becomes easy. My younger brother has a huge network of friends, and in that way, he kills it and has it easy for him but for pure pickup, people should expect quite a challenge.
Also, Medellin itself is not for wimps. Tell that housemate next time he annoys and doesn't understand english, to "Menj háza, ne zavarj" ( meny haazo, ne zavari) - go home, don't bother me.

Yeah, I can see that.
That's is exactly why I don't call it "easy". To me that falls under the "normal" or "difficult" umbrella.
"Easy" to me is Las Vegas, where you meet a girl and an hour and a half later, she is bent over looking at the Strip from Wynn.
That is "easy" to me.

Colombian women are easy for guys that spent a lot of time here....guys that aren't just visiting are taken much more seriously.
Then you have the mind set of some of these guys that have been used and abused by women so long that they are so worried about being used again that they don't want to even pay a chick's taxi to come over and ride their cock.....they make them take the bus.
I guess that would be kind of a power trip. jajaja... But no way to maximize getting laid.
I personally don't recommend dinner dates because of the low return on investment but I would never consider buying a chick dinner as paying for it...unless of course you actually dating women that lack food at home. jajaja
I have taken Colombian women on vacation with me and I don't think of that as paying for it either....if you pay for it she has to have something to show for it besides a nice tan and an sore pussy.
I know some of these young guys don't have a lot of money to be entertaining women but the guys that do will have a much better time in Colombia.
I have had people of accuse me of paying for it and pretending that i would marry the chick and that is how I get the women I do....nothing is further from the truth. I know a couple that would marry me on the spot but I never lead women on in that regard.
If you have women banging you here for free drinks, dinner and movie....my advice is "start dating better looking women". jajaja

Of course I have dinner with chicks. It's just that I would never have dinner on a first date with a chick I was trying to bed . Cold drinks in a nice club with hot latin music works so much better that it is almost a sin to waste a first date on dinner.

Unless it's a dinner date at your house. That is ideal, but it also seems that could be hard to get with the Colombian girls on a first date. I tried it and got stood up. As someone mentioned before, it seems a little hard to get these girls to trust you. It seems like it's easier to get them to go out to a club though, which is good too. The one that stood me up after I met her at the club, I just text her today and asked if she wanted to go tonight, she said she'd be there with some friends. She seemed ready to go. I think she was just a little hesitant to meet up with me solo since she doesn't know me well. But some other girls I've been talking to have no problem with it.
I also agree that Colombia is a great place for long term. If you are only here for a week, it could probably be frustrating trying to get the bang. But even a couple months seems like you could do some pretty good work. I see where you're coming from G on the Vegas analogy. It definitely isn't easy like that here. I mean you can get lucky and maybe that could happen, but it will happen 90% of the time more in Vegas than it would here. It's definitely not EASY here in that regard. You definitely have to put in some work. I feel it would be rare to meet a girl and bang here a couple hours later here.

Sure you can do both...just don't post about it....because apparently you can get a Thai hooker for less than dinner and cab fare in Colombia add clubbing and drinks and they'll be telling you that you could have had two Thai hookers. jajaja

Hell, meals and girls in Thailand are free.
An "average guy with average game in Ketosis" can "shore" 30-60 Thai hookers per night.
And "average guy with average game in Ketosis" can "shore" free meals in Thailand too.
Everything is "shorable" in Thailand. Or so I hear.

Review of Medellin, Colombia -
InternationPlayboy - 01-20-2013
A little update on my trip...
So a buddy and I want to check out somewhere new that we haven't been in Medellin yet... After a couple beers at my favorite happy hour spot/ hostel, Tigger Paw, we head to Las Palmas. Buddy says he hears its a good spot. We show up, we see 3 bars. The first we're told is the best, so why not, let's check it out? I'm smokin' a cig in the parking lot, not even on our way to the door, and security comes up and says, "Are you guys trying to come it?" Indeed we are! "Well, you're two men with no women, there's no way you're getting in." No worries, let's check out the other two bars... We walk in, everyone is seated and in groups. Doesn't look like the spot for us, so we ask one of the guys instructing the traffic in the parking lot where else we can go in the area. He points us the direction of "The best spot," which also happens to be a private party. That didn't work out, but we asked security there which was the best place to go in the neighborhood, he basically told us we were SOL and should move on to somewhere else. Cool, we grabbed a taxi and headed to Calle 33. On the way, out of las palmas, of course we see a couple of potentially good looking spots that nobody decided to mention to us... All good, too late now, let's check out Calle 33.
On the way to Calle 33, I tell the driver we're looking for something more like a discoteca. I told him that in Las Palmas, almost everyone was seated and in groups, we were looking for a more dance friendly venue. He informs me that Calle 33 is somewhat similar in the sense that it's lots of groups and people seated, but that it was better than Barrio Colombia (Which my friend was at the night before, I still haven't been but want to go). But whatever, it's all good. He asks us where we want to go in Calle 33, I tell him wherever he thinks is best. He kept telling me, "The best area is up here," and at first I think he's just trying to get some extra $ off us, but turns out, he was right. He drops us off at the most poppin' spot on Calle 33.
We pull up, and there are too many spots to choose from. Buddy and I decide it's best to take a walk down the street first to explore our options before choosing. We get towards the end of what looks like the best section and decide our best bet is to ask the next group of cute girls we see, where would be the best spot for us to go. Within 10 seconds of making this decision, we see a group of 5 sexy ass girls walking towards us. It was like a gift from god.... I approach the leader of the group (Buddy speaks almost 0 spanish) and ask, "Ladies, we're trying to find the best spot for two gringos to have a good time tonight." The girl responds, "The best place is with us, come on!" The only better answer could have been, "The tunnel of never ending vagina, Duh!" But since that doesn't exist, we decided to make our way with the girls. We get to a bar and they say, "This is it!" Once we get in, buddy asks, "How old are they?" At first I didn't think much of it, cause the sexy bitch I was talking to/ approached had a fat ass and big tits. I wouldn't have guessed any less than 18. But WTF? May as well ask. Turns out, the girl is 16! Shhhiiiiiiiitt. Look, I don't have anything against ya'll if you're into that, but for me, I can't do it. We tell the girls we have to leave, and decide to check out the other discotecs around the area.
We walk down the street, we see a club that seems to be good, lots of girls outside. I walk up and ask, "Do you have to pay to get in?" The girl at the door informs me, "No, but did you know this is a lesbian bar?" Perfect! I'm a lesbian too! I love bitches!!! But after 0 seconds of evaluating, we decided we should move on. We come up to the next discoteca, go in, not only are we the only gringos, but the only white gringos. Lots of groups, lots of people seated. Probably not our spot. I actually like black women, but, I just wasn't feeling the vibe. Next spot, we go up, I don't think a head in the house was over 21. Again, we run into the same problem. Everyone was young as hell! A colombian kid who speaks a little English realizes that we are clearly gringos comes up and starts talking to us. His English was worse than my Spanish I soon came to find out, and I end up asking where we can go where it isn't all seated groups under 20 years old. He informs me that downstairs is "better." We walk downstairs and quickly turn around. We decide that unless we want to bang 16 year olds, we have to go somewhere else. On our way towards the end of the street, I come across a group of cute girls, hoping they are at least 20, but nope, more like 17. We ask them where is good to go for the night. Why I would ask a group of 17 year old girls where to go? Part because I had no other ideas, part because I was tipsy, and part because I wanted to practice my approaching in Spanish. One of the girls loved my accent, she told us to go to La Estrada. Cool, it's close to where I'm staying and it's good? Let's go!
After a short taxi ride, our taxi driver tells us 12k people a year are killed in Medellin. Then he tells us 2k people a year are killed in Medellin. Then he tells us 6k people are killed a year in Medellin all in the same ride. May as well ask this guy where to go at this point, he sounds just about as relevant as everyone else we asked. We pull up to La Estrada, and I realize I've already been here. The place sucks, yeah there is some tallent, and a club that cost COP$20 to get in, but the security wouldn't even let me see inside before, so we passed it up.
We decide, fuck it, we're close, let's just go to Lleras. We're walking around and see a spot that has potential. I look at the sign and it reads, "Mr. Chupito." I remember earlier someone telling me that was the spot to go in Lleras. At this point, why I would listen to anyone's suggestion, I don't know, but we looked in and it looked good. We payed the $5 cover to enter. We got in, and even though it wasn't packed it was still a great time. The first group of girls we approached wanted to dance with us. We were 2, yet we still had all 3 girls dancing with us. We decide that the girls we are dancing with aren't the best quality in the places, we try to leave them and they try to follow us. We decide, fuck it, let's dance with them until we get an opprotunity. That we finally did, and eventually approached probably the 2 best looking girls in the club (At least I thought so, buddy had his eyes on another two). The girls agreed to dance with us, but it didn't go anywhere. Regardless, we had a great time at Mr. Chupito. I had actually gone to the little mini shot bar many times, but never realized there was a great discoteca owned by the same owners right next door. We ended up having a blast at Mr. Chuppito, even though we got no ass, the girls were friendly, and had we wanted it, we probably could have gotten it. We just realized we had so much more talent around us.
Moral of the story... It's hard for me to judge Las Palmas, because I feel like we didn't get to check everything out, but from what I did see, it's a waste of time.
As for Calle 33, if you are looking for young girls, like under 20, this is the place to be. It just wasn't my spot. Lots of seated groups as well.
Mr. Chupito is a fucking blast! Check it out. Wish we would have gone earlier. We arrived at 2:30am and it was still poppin'. To be honest, Lleras isn't as bad as I've read up on. I still have some places to check out, definitely Barrio Colombia sounds like one I need to see, but honestly, I've had a lot of fun in Lleras since I've been here. Obviously I'm still pretty green and have lots to learn, but this is my evaluation so far. Hope this could help you guys! I have some more to come, it's late and I can't add everything now, but I'll keep you updated, tomorrow should be interesting!

The " Full of tables and groups sitting there" setup describes 90% of the clubs in Medellin. Las Palmas is great, but many of them actually have a No-Gringo rule as well as many places in Barrio Colombia. However, you can get in if you talk them up. By the way, if you go to Barrio and you say you slayed like crazy at Fase 2, I'll laugh at you
There's a place that has a lot of horny women going there and has nice dancing too, but I can't remember the name off the top of my head. I'll post it here later.

Great post. I have had so many nights like that.
Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but it is experiences like that again that make me surprised when people say Colombia is "easy".
It is always harder in another city because you have no idea where to go. And you don't know the best times to arrive.
In an American city, you can make optimal moves at each turn that will put you in front of the most girls at each time of night.

Agreed 100% G. I definitely learned that last night. But it was all good, we figured out where not to go so it will save me some time next weekend. To be honest, even though it was a lot of hopping around and taxis, I had a good night over all. We ended up at the very place we started and found it to be the best place, and by the time we arrived it was a bit cleared out, but still a lot of fun.
Volk, is the place you're talking about called Luxury by chance? You are right about most places in Medellin being seated groups, that's why I liked Mr. Chupito's. I feel it is a million times easier to game at places like this over the seated group places. The only places I've found so far that weren't really seated groups were Mr. Chupito's, Babylon, and Blue (Which is a rock bar). I'm gonna check out Barrio Colombia next weekend though. I hear Luxury is a nice spot.
Shamrock, I'll have to send you a PM with my # and maybe we can meet up once you get down here. I'm by no means a pro yet, but I'm starting to find my way around.

sounds good dude...martini on me . Some info is better than none. I got a short-term place on Calle F in Poblado until I figure out where I want to be.

Cool man, I'm in the same hood. Not sure where Calle F is, but couldn't be too far.
Another observation I've made is, in the places you have to pay to get in, if the place is good, they'll let you look inside before you pay. If it's not so poppin' they'll usually say no. At least that's what I got from the places I went. I can't confirm this 100% cause some of the places I didn't go into, but last night at Mr. Chupitos, the place was pretty cleared out and the bouncer told me I couldn't look in. I'd also have to assume the real high end places wouldn't let you because they probably simple don't care if you want to come in or not because they are already making money. But if it doesn't seem too poppin' and they won't let you take a look, chances are it's not worth it.

Nice! I'm right off 5th as well, not sure what the 5F means but I guess we'll see. I couldn't find it on the map.

When I was in Medellin last September, I went out with a couple of girls who seemed to have only come out for free dinner and drinks, it got annoying because they didn't end up putting out beyond kissing at the club and my time/money would have been better spent on other girls.
Even though I didn't get the bang with a couple of those girls, I still like going out with Colombian girls, the dinner and a few drinks didn't really set me back too much (maybe spent $25-30 on them) but at least when you take a Colombian girl out you will get two things out of it: practicing your Spanish for a couple of hours and its easy to get them to go dancing so you'll also get some free salsa lessons/practice.
The same can't be said for girls here in Thailand, bad English and even worse dancing.

The place's name is not Luxury. I don't remember if it's either Forum or Fahrenheit, but both are real clubs in Medellin. Good luck!

Gringuito - 01-21-2013
Fahrenheit is the after hours club that's where Universal/Dollhouse was near the old Mangos. It's on the autopista going south. It starts filling up around 3/4am with some of the working girls from other clubs as well as couples. There are some good outside bars on 70 if you liked 33. The best after parties are when you go with a group to a finca in LLano Grande or Rio Negro. Paisas will continue partying well into the next day.
I own a penthouse in El Poblado. Send me a pm if you want to get together.

Today was a pretty funny day, in retrospect.
InternationPlayboy looked out for me in a big way.
I'll let him tell you all more about it, if he wants.
