Are there really any street workers left to see anymore? I was under the impression that aside from maybe a handful of drug addicts around Moreau that the street scene had entirely disappeared. Is that wrong? I thought that almost everyone aside from a few outliers were seeing indies or agency...

I don't normally recommend bringing sand to the beach (in this case literally) but for trips to Santa Marta it's actually not a bad idea. You wouldn't do it from Medellin, of course, but from Cartagena or Barranquilla it's not a terrible option. The Colombian girls typically only work once a...

If we're taking MERB threads as anecdotal evidence I think (if I remember correctly) almost everyone in that "when did you start as a hobbyist and what were your experiences" thread (title might not be exactly right) said they started in their 20's

They warn you of any potential dangers. Canada issues high risk travel advisories against going to the Bahamas or Belgium, for example. They assume a level of complete stupidity and ignorance on the part of the traveler and warn to the lowest common denominator. Scopolamine can be an issue in...

You don't need the coca leaves, they give you coca candies instead and yes, they help. For Medellin you don't need to join the FB groups necessarily. I just mentioned looking for them to source individuals who are fellow mongers and who have exploitable friend lists. In my last post which I...

Actually, I'd recommend you use Facebook. There's a pretty deep network of people on Facebook and they're very easy to source. You can also link up with some expats through those groups who can offer you some friendship and guidance if you so desire. There's a large American expat community...

Parque Lleras would be fine, because most of your girl contact would be online, typically. They can come straight to your place without ever going to Parque Lleras anyway, but I would tend to think that if the cops are hassling anybody it would be the odd girl in the park looking to pick up...

This isn't something linked entirely to the SP. Mongers age too, both chronologically and in experience and their expectations and levels of measurement change. There is also a certain tendency to romanticize memory and to attribute more to the memory than the reality warranted. As Luna...

ah, then this requires more info than we should be putting in this thread. You should start a new one in the international section for a general chat and you can dm me for specific questions if you like.

I haven't run into any hotels in the Philippines that aren't girl friendly so pretty much anywhere should be fine. Manila traffic is some of the worst I've ever seen anywhere and this is a huge factor when choosing a place to stay. Stay as close to the action as you can because getting around...

LOL. I wasn't exactly referring to a blow-by-blow (maybe some pun intended) description of the action! It was more like how would it have felt to be that age and interacting with your partner being so much more knowledgeable sexually and socially (not just zeroing in on the sex because notice I...

Ha! I literally had a dream along these last night, thinking about what would happen if my current self was transported back in time into my high school body with my high school girlfriend and the utter shock on her face as I went from awkward but enthusiastic teenager to, "ahem", master of the...

Yes, cancellations suck. :)

I do kind of feel like we've strayed from the path here, and I agree with you mentioning that earlier, but I'm going to say that you are incorrect as well, or some context needed, so I'm going to dip my oar in the water again. Sorry. 1) several of your colleagues aren't scammers and do ask for...

Bonjour Hi! :)

We don't really know what his experience is. We just know he's new to MERB. He can talk about that if he wants to. I know that my level of experience certainly isn't zero or close to it and I agree with him. I've also been quite clear about making the distinction between the separate groups...

He's not wrong, and taken outside of a local (NA) context that would absolutely be the prevailing general attitude and It is with many people here too. The thing is that it's important to take in the entire tapestry of the mongering experience and to make the distinction between the small group...

You're not going back far enough, if Crescent street alone is the measure of downtown bars. Downtown bars covered all of Mackay, Bishop, Crescent and Mountain between de Maisonneuve and Rene Levesque , with scatterings above de Maisonneuve, and with good coverage of bars on drummond and some on...

It's very common. Every monger with any experience that I know has lost a deposit at some point or another. It's not a question of if but when for most people. I know multiple people who have lost multiple deposits. Totally agree. That's just courtesy and common decency. The amount of the fee...

so, you should require deposits and refuse bookings from those who don't pay them. There will be clarity that way. The people who refuse to pay deposits won't book you but you won't get complaints from those that do and you'll never be completely out of pocket even if cancellations are a pain in...
