In other words, what do you tell girls when you're in a city for a week just to bang?

[FlacoLoco]

I was travelling in the DR researching possible business prospects. It was true at the time but it worked very well. It gives them the hope that you will be back often and possibly for good. It also shows them that you're ambitious which we all know is a natural aphrodisiac.

[Roosh]

The worst backstory I've tried: "Just traveling." It gets no follow up, no interest.

The best is when it's business related, but you should customize it based on your audience. If I'm in a hipster bar, I'm a "travel writer". Otherwise I'm some sort of businessman/merchant/analyst.

I'm using writer less these days because even with a fake name, Google is getting me into trouble.

What I used this trip in Europe: "I've spent the past few years making my business mobile. I'm moving to Europe and spending a few weeks in each city until I decide which one I want to live in. So far, I really like (insert current city I am in) and think this is going to be the one."

Transition into how I like the culture and that's why I want to stay and hope to meet some cool people (aka her). Worked really well this trip. During the last weekend I was so tired of partying for so long I just was blatant and asked girls if they want to be fucked by an American. Didn't work so well.

[Innuendo]

Job interview works great.

[Soma]

First part:
- I live here (temporarily.)

Second part:
- I'm in international business.
or
- I'm a bank robber.
or
- I run an import/export business...but I can't talk much about it.
depending on the girl and situation.

I never tell a girl the real deal unless I've known her at least a month, but even then when I try to explain they still don't really understand it beyond "something to do with the internets" so there's not much point anyway.

If you are in an English speaking country or talking to English speaking tourists the best backup story you can use is that you are in some way related to the film industry (a screenwriter, a producer asistant, an agent, etc.). But be sure to be carrying all the time a screenplay book like Jackie Brown.
Your line would be like this: "Oh, my boss (a director or a producer) has this idea about this movie, a kind of 'Jackie Brown' but this time with the story located in this place. So I asked him some time to figure out the story, blah, blah, blah..."
You would get quite a response among hot girls.

How is Google getting you in trouble if you are using a fake name?

The travel writer line almost invites failure; it piques a girl's interest, but almost too much. Even if she is dim and normally does not read, she will be interested in what you've got to say about her country. Eventually, she will ask to see your work or seek it out on her own. You may get the bang, but you forfeit anything beyond that.

Better: "I have an internet business. My partner is here in Berlin and I've recently moved so we don't have to work together from an absurd distance."

Exceptional: "I'm a country manager for Ermenegildo Zegna. The company has plans to grow in the Czech Republic, so I'm here for at least a year to do market research and make contacts." Both backstories are congruent with the kind of open schedule love tourists often have; your boss is two countries away, so you are free to wake late and chill the majority of the workday.

P.S. Roosh, if you are reading this, please pay visits to the countries above, especially Germany. Germany is the gaping hole in your body of work. This loose talk of needing to go to Asia "for your readership" has me worried.

[Way Cool Jr]

You can also say that you're travelling there because you are so interested in their culture, monuments and history, or that you have always been curious of what ..... (Ukraine, Belgium, DR) really is.
You can then start to talk about an episode of their history that you liked particularly, at that point she is either interested and she'll tell you more about her country or she just got the point and you can change the conversation argument.
It worked for me a couple of times, but I've got to add that I was really interested in those countries.

[Sourcecode]

makher.

why are you interested in Germany.
i lived and traveled all around Germany. i would be the first to say someone should give it a chance.
But i don't think Roosh would gain anything from Germany?


But i would like to know what you think the challenge would be

[Cooze Hound]

I work for a large North American restaurant franchise. I was sent here to provide oversight and guidance in opening a development agency here in Ukraine. Our goal is to turn the beautiful women of this country into large land whales. Just like in America.

As per Roosh's last video, the more he tells about himself, as a writer and the more detail he gives the easier it is for a girl to figure out who he really is. Once you've dumped the pieces of the puzzle out on the floor all she has to do is put them together.

We are living in times where anonymity is becoming almost impossible. Its happened to me and if it has not happened to you, it will at some point. I have been busted because of the google on the internet machine.

Us players will have to turn into CIA agents where are cover becomes so deep, even we forget who we really are.

[Hencredible Casanova]

Really all depends on where I am.

- Testing a potential move.

- Living here temporarily.

- Visiting.

- Frequent visitor.

- Work.

- Vacation/Travel.

When I was in the Philippines, my backstory was "working on a Manny Pacquiao video game".

[Roosh]

In Ukraine I had good luck with "real estate analyst."

"I work for an American company that buys foreign property, especially in Eastern Europe. I look at a lot of properties for sale."

It did a great job of explaining why I've been to so many countries

Whats wrong with saying youre a travelling lothario and adventurer?
I think thats pretty cool and interesting in itself.

[chochemonger1]

I always use the line "I am going to work as a consultant for Citibank starting in a month in this city." Then I explain that I came early to check out the city, explore and find an apartment. That explains to her why I have so much free time on my hand.

"Working with some customers"

"Teaching a seminar"

[Gmac]

I worked in the hospitality industry which is pretty much universal and since I've had experience in almost every job I can play whatever role fits the sitaution.

In less wealthy countries it just sounds lazy, decadent, fishy, or simply incomprehensible. Most people work and are just barely able to subsist. People are jealous too-- if you just can travel around and do what seems to them to be nothing, they dislike that.

I'm telling the truth, which is that I am engaged in art projects everywhere I go. It's a great way to meet people who want to volunteer.

[johnw28]

I usually tell them I work for a real estate investment firm and I am in and out of the country working on a current deal. Or I use my college background and tell them I am a merchant marine waiting a few days to catch my next hitch or I work in international logistics. I have found depending on the area merchant mariner doesn't always go over well as they ask if it is true that I have a girl in every port. Real estate investor has worked the best for me as far as getting higher end women.

[michelin]

i tell them i have a project going on here, and have to come visit frequently to meet up with colleagues to work on it. it justifies my short term stay.
