Medellin still worth it?

According to WORLD66 there "are many good bars and discos in Pereira". Either way, I have always done better with day game.

After 1 month in Medellin, I would never go back there for the girls. the sex tourists have spoilt the reputation of foreigners.

There is virtually no salsa scene in Medellin with the midlle-high class girls. Any medium-large city in the US or Europe has a better salsa scene than Medellin.


I would definitely go back to Bogotá and I would also try Manizales and Pereira (for whiter girls)

As Roosh says, Cali is not worth it for beautiful girls but much easier than Medellin for average-pretty girls.
In Cali and Medellin, you can get hundreds of phone numbers from beautiful girls easily but they will flake on you. Be prepared to spend your week ends alone... (except if you live there for six months and study at a local university full of girls like Roosh...)

Forget about Santa Marta unless you want to score Western backpackers girls.

I have seen some of the best looking girls (whiter) in Barranquilla but it's too hot, expensive, and full of rude coast people and there's nothing much to do there, except the malls.

My personal taste goes to girls from Cartagena (an amazing mix of white, black and Indian) but it's like Medellin: too many sex tourists to score with the non-pros. They are afraid to be seen as whores if they date a foreigner.

I hear this all the time and i'm really sick of hearing it. Unless you are a fat 45 year old dude with coke bottle glasses, dockers pulled up to your chest, a fanny pack , and NO GAME this will not happen to you.

I had to fight the bitches off in Medellin. I'm no spring chicken either, i'm 35. use your online resources. Come in shape, and wear fashionable clothing that fits you. medellin is a trendy place. I'm sick of hearing westerners say they can't get girls there. Differentiate yourself from the "monger" types by NOT staying at the freaking mansion, by learning some spanish, and by NOT looking like a stupid tourist. do your homework. don't drool. Work your online and daytime game.

Medellin still worth it?

I found out i was getting vacation time a few months back and i have lurking around here since then and i just joined the forum, so first time posting.
i have a nicey nice vacation coming up, about 4/5 months, i have Colombia on my radar as an opportunity to chill out, try to learn spanish, and of course get at chicks. I plan to be doing all 3 at the same time.
A little about me: 27, originally from brooklyn, white dude but occasionally people confuse me for a latino mix, beginner level of intermediate spanish, not the best dancer but willing to learn
I know the Medellin vs. Cali vs. Bogota debate has already been beat in the head, but i have some specific questions that i didnt see posted about or in bang colombia.
firstly, it is on my bucket list to bang a chick with fake boobs, which city is most easy to accomplish this? Im not talking about a model chick, just your average cute girl who has boobs done.
Im posting in this specific Medellin thread because my other question is about lifestyle in Medellin vs. Cali. So based on what ive read:
Medellin
pros: better city for recreation, better/easier climate, more developed city and more beautiful, larger city, some argue the paisas are better than the calenas.
cons: I have read some posts here about medellin being 'overrun' by gringos and such, and ive read others say its only in certain parts of the city, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.
Cali
pros: seems to be the more 'authentic' experience as there are less tourists, make the dollar stretch here, girls would be more open because less gringos around, closer to the coast so you can make easier trips to a beach destination (?)
cons: Uglier city, the city is really hot, more intense and more dangerous, the complaints Ive read about Cali are that the nightlife is bad, but i dont see how the nightlife can be that off in a city of 2.5 million (?).
Thanks and feel free to message me i would be happy to buy a round (or a couple!) when im down there.

To me, the biggest barrier was my inability to speak Spanish. I did get laid, but I would have got 100X more pussy if I were fluent in Spanish. This is very different from Asia, for example. In Thailand, you can get laid much more if you speak some Thai, but nobody expects you to learn it and you can still do quite well if you learn sawasdee kap and kapun kap. In Medellin, I often felt like an idiot without Spanish. If you don't believe me, register on Colombian Cupid and see how many chicks seem to like you but disappear once they find out you don't speak Spanish.

Most of those factors you mentioned don't lean one way or the other.

Fake tits - no difference between Medellin and Cali.

Both cities about the same size. Neither city is beautiful when you consider only the built environment.

While Cali is closer to the coast, there's no good beach to visit. Either way you'll be flying to Santa Marta or San Andres.

Expenses about the same.

There are more tourists in Medellin, but that doesn't translate into the gringo getting more love in Cali. It's a wash.

You have plenty of time. Why not go to both and see which one you like better?

Bigbootyluvr is actually making a lot of sense here. Too bad he had a meltdown.

Anyone done El Peñon de Guatape? Thinking about grabbing one of my favs and taking a day trip there in September.

Most locals say going up is a ripoff but for that view...damn! Make sure it's a clear day. It's easy to get there, just take a bus at the Terminal del Norte that goes to Guatape. It should be around 6 USD to 10 USD (Not totally sure, I usually drove all the way there instead). The place is nice in all, but how good it is depends on yourself, mostly.

That is pretty funny.

Yeah, I am guessing his meltdown happened soon after.

That is when he got flaked on girls in Medellin and was getting ripped off by taxi drivers.

Poor sap just imploded.

He should have followed his own advice.
