Since u referred to the location, in google maps Fercho appears in cra 43 instead of 45.....

I'm not posting a link, bcs it's only for subscribers. U can read the attached fotos. Highlights: Success is evidenced by the fact that 2 of the 3 presidential candidates r ex-mayors. Rate of homicides is lower than Chicago's. Great transportation system, connecting the far comunas to the center. Very successful municipal utility - EPM. However: too many sex tourists; conspicuous drug use in public parks; small local criminal gangs - "combos" - still control large areas; most poorer residents have more faith in them than in the police or in city hall. FYI

Saturday 22:30 went to the Dark Eagle bar, which seems to be the only venue here. €10 for drink + enterance to the basement cruising. Smallish bar. 12 patrons seating, most of them locals who seemed to know each other. Almost all middle aged. The basement consisted of a small lounge for porn, and circa 6 small dark rooms. VERY clean. 8 guys walking around. Two pairs in action. One relatively youngish who was being sucked blew me for a couple of moments. Then I left. No complaints, but I won't return.

I don't know u Canadian, and it's a bit presumtuous on my part, but I humbly submit the following thought. In 'real' life, in front of all kinds of acquaintences, I too wld feel the need to rspnd. Here, in the digital anonymous life, there's no need to. Furthermore, even in real life there's no need to rspnd to an insult if the insultor is unworthy. If an F student tells me I m an idiot, he doesnt rate an answer. This Slvk likes to pick on guys here with similar-identical accusations; its not only u. He once told someone he wasn't in Colombia, when that guy was sending me pics of himself from there. Just ignore these harassments by a self-appointed troll police.

I really dont undrstnd: Why do u feel the need to prove urself to anyone?

75, Since u prefer questiions about further details in PMs, I'll do that. I'll visit Medellin in August, for the flower festival. Writing here just to commend u for a GREAT report! It embodies the rational of these forums!! Thank u!!!

Unlike Budapest and Bratislava, Vienna seems full of gaysex venues. However, I am staying at the innerstadt; almost all of them r in the gayhood; and I m too lazy and for some reason not enough horny to bother myself going there. There is one gay sauna close by called Kaiserbrundl. Fee is €22, quite expensive. It looks very impressive from the enterance. The non-sex focus is on special saunas, and there is no hot water jacuzzi or pool. The pool is cold, for after sauna-treatment. I passed. During 6 days here, I got about 25 messages, evenly split between grindr and romeo. Only one asked for money - €100, very inexpensive. For those interested, there's a comprehensive online: www.gayguide.at

"All" look good? Isnt the first on the right out of place..... ?

First time ever: as I walked into my hotel room, a sexy no-nonsense guy grindered me, and 20 minutes later he was in my bed. Other than that: No gay clubs or saunas here. He told me locals take a 50 mnts train ride to Vienna for that kind of fun. I was propositioned by 3 not-for-me locals, and 2 from Vienna who r now awaiting my arrival there Monday. Read somewhere that Bratislava is (was?) the porn capital of Bel Ami. Where r all those sexy guys?

Thx Richard How many of them (if at all) aren't for pay? Any 'boyfriend' material? Can hold a conversation? Interested in topics other than sex rstrnts clubs ? I'm

No I wrote that the seeking-support guy flaked.

I was there two midweek nights. Checked out the saunas at 6-9. I m a 65 y/o caucasian; not unattractive. Magnum sauna: After entering I was told "payment when leaving". Fortunately so. There were about 10 men around, looking older than me. In less than a minute I made an immediate U turn, and left. I wasn't charged the €17 entrance fee. Sauna 69: €13 fee. Impressive place; big; spacious; very comfortable loung; immaculately clean. Jaccuzi not hot. 3 oldies and 3 young guys walking around stone-faced, sometimes watching the porn screens. No interactions. Left after an hour. The nice receptionist was honest: "it's better on Saturdays". CoXx men's bar: Google says it opens at 9; went there at 10; was told by the 'receptionist' that things get going only at 11. Didn't wait. Apps: Was propositioned by 3 hot youngsters in Grindr and Romeo. One asked for "support"; insisted I set the sum. I was surprised he was ok with my trial baloon: 10,000 Florint = €26. We set the details, but he flaked; as did another. I met with the third, who was really hungry after a month of no sex. Didn't see any escorts on hunqz. There were 15 on rentmen. The very few posting rates: incall - 120; outcall - 145; overnight 800-1000.

Interesting bit about the hand rail. Why is that memorable? Did it make u hold on to someone / something else ?

Thx, but: It isnt the money; I have no prblm paying double. I have 2 concerns: The small: some hotels don't accept revolving second occupant. The big one: when I'll ask them to check ID, they'll know for sure it's sex industry. I'll visit Medellin in August, for the flower festival. Will b happy to meet any forum member there (-:

Thx Rob, This means no problem hosting, but also no cedula checking....

I don't accept "trust no one". That's the way to hand over victory to the bad guys (as politicians do). Find a way to trust some; that's the way to a healthy community.

Richard, please share the name of the place and how to rent there.

Richard, I too thank u for ur report. Actually, a couple of days ago I opened a thread, asking for places that allow visitors after checking cedula. Now it turns out that u r staying at a place which apparently doesnt enforce their no-visitor policy. How does that work?

At Loma Verde they charge $25 for each visitor. I there no place in Medellin that doesn't charge? I stayed at one in Cartagena and in Bogota.....

As in other things in life, I prefer to seperate the wheat from the chaff. I don't cooperate with "unknown posters"; I gladly help out credible "known posters". I urge everyone to do so. This IS one of the main functions of this website.

Hahaha No normal person outside this website could have possibly deciphered our language here somtimes.....

"Having problem" with getting it hard, and the "cellphone aid" was for porn? Or m I totally off course ?

Orson, could u please go into more details? It's nice to know as much as possible about what to expect - behavior and costs. Is there anything that should NOT be done? Etiquette or safety....

GayRomeo

Grindr allows me to look at pics there (not accurately as u pointed out). It doesnt allow others to see me there. Anyone know which apps other than Grindr r in popular use there?
