Birmingham boy

So Mirador Sur is a cruising spot during the day for sure, but according to locals - all action starts after dark there. I personally wouldn't risk it though. The left side(look at the map) faces more rough parts- definitely to be hunted during the day, but I wouldn't go there at night, hell no. The rest of the park feels pretty chilled and safe, it's a good location just for a casual walk as well. Many of these guys would be on Grindr, you can just walk or sit there, be available and see if anyone is going to approach, text on Grindr etc. Great shout about ubereats- it bloody works! Tried PedidosYa which is like the main app here and none of my credit cards work for payments, only cash. However Uber and Uber eats work perfectly. Happy to confirm Uber here is safe and very cheap.

I was staying in Airbnb in both PC and SD. No problem getting guys in, I asked Airbnb host before booking if guests are okay. Mirador Sur park. Just walk along and be on Grindr and things are going to happen. However if you want to use purely paid guys and Manny you better staying close to Sona Colonial.

Hola everyone. I had a very slow start so not much to share. I'm surprised to see the prices for medicine ie Doxy are quite high(around $1 per one 100mg tablet, different pharmacies, even online). My first week was in Punta Cana which is quite deserted - everyone is spread along the coast so not many ppl actually around to meet. This didn't stop me from meeting unpaid locals - the guys here are just so my type, tall, masculine! I had a few unpaid guys from tinder/Grindr and one paid who asked for 20$. Still felt quite slow in terms of pace, it's not as chaotic as SD. Now I'm in SD, Im in a quiet area for now, Mirador Sur. Lots of unpaid locals here looking to fuck, again different types and sizes available. In a local park there are plenty of straight guys selling their dicks (500 DOP is the starting price), also there are lots of fit guys training in that park and offering paid stuff. I had quite a few unpaid guys from Badoo/Tinder I chatted with before I came to DR, so I'm still going through those guys before I move to the paid guys (incl Manny potentially). So far so good!

Finally heading to DR 🥳 Just wanted to check a couple of things. Do I need to be careful where to withdraw cash from ATMs, any supermarket or only specific "safe places"? Also, anyone knows apps or services for food and medicine delivery? I'd need to buy doxy, presume I can do it any pharmacy? Ideally I'd want to use the delivery to order online so If you know any good apps/services like Rappi in Colombia- please shout:) Thanks!

I'm going to post some reports here when I'm there. 3 weeks to go...

Eh, only if you'd push back your top by a couple of weeks ...:/

Ah. Thanks for the answers guys, I've given up at some point 😃 Well, I might need to balance Manny and going elsewhere as I simply won't be able to afford to get so many paid guys for over a month:) Had some experience with Badoo in the meantime and it's a very dodgy audience there so I wonder if Tinder is any better... I shall leave my review once I'm there and hopefully it all goes well🤞Final call if anyone is visiting SD around mid Jan- mid Feb, drop me a private message:)

Hey everyone. I've just booked my tickets and accomodation for SD and wanted to drop a few questions here. Any advice is appreciated. I'm going for more than a month, so budget is going to be limited.. 1. I had a lot of success in meeting unpaid locals in Colombia(80% of my meets probably) and just top it up with the paid guys. From reading the forum I rarely see anyone mentioning unpaid meets in DR, is that just not realistic? I'm going to use Manny for some guys but won't be able to afford it every day:) Any feedback on this front? I'm not a sauna/cruise kinda person so would rely on online connections. Anyone used Tinder there? 2. I used cheap local restaurants for the menu el dia in Colombia, is there anything like that in SD? Or maybe an inexpensive restaurant chain you could recommend? 3. Where would you recommend going for the weekend beach trips from SD? Read that Boca Chica isn't great, anymore options nearby? Would be a shame not to use the opportunity to visit the beach during the peak season... 4. I'm staying not far from Zona Colonial, but still a bit outside- a couple of places on the left side of it, Google shows 10-20 min ride away from zona colonial (Bella vista and around it basically). I just really want some quiet walkable places to stay in and would rather avoid the touristy centre, also it is cheaper for the long term stay. Anyone stayed that side of the city, any issues about the guys not coming because of the location being outside Zona Colonial I should consider? 5. Hows the overall speed of WiFi on the island? I had no issues in Colombia but noticed none of Airbnbs kinda mention the speed which is sus. I need to video call remotely for work so wonder if that would be an issue... Presume there is no issue to buy a local SIM with internet for the foreigner in case I need it? Also If anyone is around at that time and wants to hang out or share the guys - let me know. Also, if anyone got safe contacts to share for the local tops - please DM. Thanks!

Bogota was only 2 weeks out of 5 weeks trip but yeah lots to see in the city and around - the lagoon, the salt church, villages like Guatavita etc. I know it's not the most touristy place in Colombia, but considering it was a fuck trip around the big cities, I think Bogota was the best out of all of them.

Well my 5 weeks in Colombia just gone like it was nothing. I'm leaving Bogota today and here are my final thoughts. First of all, many thanks to all guys on this forum for all the tips and recos, I wouldn't make it without you👍 I think for a beginner Bogota should be the starting point, it feels the safest out of all places I've been to in Colombia, has plenty of paid and unpaid guys with reasonable prices, lovely weather and lots to see in and outside the city. I stayed 1w in Cedritos, which was clean and lovely, safe and just enjoyable but it's residential so only local unpaid guys around you, however paid guys were happy to visit Cedritos on request. I managed to meet ppl from Tinder and Grindr, which felt totally safe, local guys are very keen to meet a foreigner. My 2nd week was in Unilago area north of Chapinero, and it felt different, still relatively safe but too many ppl and untidy, although lots of paid and unpaid guys around. My last week I just dated one guy from tinder, which was unpaid and he paid everywhere for himself(except when it was too expensive to eat because I wanted to go to a fancy place so I'd pay). Met lots of guys in their 20s, although I'm more after mid age guys, I found those young ones that were bigger and more "masculine" looking so I was happy with the choice. Had a few trips around the city and the countryside looks just like a mix of England and Gran canaria which is really unexpected and I enjoyed those little towns and villages very much, they all felt safe and touristy. I mostly met with unpaid guys in Bogota but the paid ones were happy to go down to 100-140 COP (after seeing my pics) and I found a few really hot guys there as the choice is vast. The guys in Bogota both paid and unpaid were much stricter on condoms and many rejected even knowing I'm on Prep+doxy, it was a strict NO, however they were guys who were okay to fuck without condoms, but a clear difference Vs other cities in Colombia. Overall, I think I over panicked before coming here, basic precautions like wearing what locals are wearing an staying In safe areas was enough for me to have no issues whatsoever. I survived without Spanish just fine, offline Google translate did the job. I'm surprised with how many guys were genuinely interested to meet, to chat, to go to touristy places, without any financial interest just because I'm a European and they are curious, I was not expecting that. I had more sex in those 5 weeks than I had in the last 2 years lol, probs too much and 4 weeks would be enough. Thanks again and DM if you have any questions.

You get a strict NO from me🤣 lots of hot bottoms in Colombia tho 👌

I'm intrigued, can I see it in private messages? 🤣 And the pic of the guy if you're uncomfortable to share it publicly

Well it could be just my body's reaction, I have no idea, but pretty useful side effect, you can try 😬

Thanks for telling that story, it's useful for everyone to know this, so we can all spot the red flags and see the signs in the future. I'd still share his photo lol, he is a scammer🤷🏻‍♂️ Again, my request for ID picture before the meeting is there just for that specific reason- I have a proof it's an adult who volunteered to meet for free(I save all chats too). My friend told me a story about another guy demanding money, he deleted the chat before the meeting where they have agreed to fuck for free. My unpaid experience here was much better than paid (surprisingly). I didn't tell that story here that one guy got money upfront and spent his whole time in the phone instead of fucking and got the condom on we agreed not to use prior to the meeting. The worst thing was that I really liked that guy and would have spent so much more on him if he only made an effort ...

Yes, it's easier to take as you don't need to take it with food. I got my bottle from the US but here in Colombia it's also available as Imodium in liquid form. The min dose 15 ml is perfect as it just mildly slows down the processes.
