Members Popular Post Latbear4blk Posted November 16 Author Members Popular Post Posted November 16 The weather is not helping, it is more rainy than usual. It is not only me, the locals are also complaining about it. However, this week I was able to enjoy A LOT a walk around the Jardin BotĂĄnico de MedellĂn. It is a beautiful park very well kept and with exotic flowers everywhere. There is also a lagoon with turtles and iguanas. I spent several hours walking around and loved it. Of course, I devoted sometime to listen to the birds' singing and my app helped me to identify two new species. IMG_8338.mov   The entire park is designed to make a learning experience from your visit. There were too many little and big details to share, like for instance mirrors to observe the top of the trees without stressing your neck. I do share this feature that I found specially appealing. Unfortunately, heavy rain caught me. Or fortunately, because I had to look for shelter and ended up in one of the two restaurants located inside the park. The food was good, but the drink was just gorgeous, one of the best strawberry daiquiris I ever tried. It was delightful to have lunch on the restaurant deck, surrounded by nature and with the rain tapping on the awning. To give you an idea of how convenient local prices are, the bill, including the service, was only 23 bucks. The park closes at 4pm, but I noticed modern lighting arrangements throughout the entire layout. They probably rent the place or organize night events. I imagine is astonishingly beautiful at night with those lighting designs. But I had to run away because I did not have repellent and the mosquitos were devouring me. I had planned to stop by Hotel Roma after my stroll, as it is located at walking distance from the JardĂn BotĂĄnico. I called Fercho but he did not respond. As it was raining again, I called an Uber and went back home. When I was in the Uber Fercho called me back. This delay was just bad luck and very unusual. Since then we have talked and texted many, many times, and his responses have always been immediate. He was in Cali and was going to stay there for two weeks. I will give more details later in this post. The other experience I enjoyed this week was the Museo de Arte Moderno de MedellĂn. The MAMM is across the street from my airbnb, so it is the perfect plan for these rainy days. I've been exploring also the eateries nearby my airbnb. Back in Recife I was concerned about my budget, but fortunately my free lance gig has provided me with some extra cash and I am not cooking as much as I was back in Brazil. There is a local chain called Crepes & Waffles. Despite being a chain, the food is delicious and excellent quality. Those two dishes and a water, just 14 bucks. But not all the places have great prices. That trendy fast food place costed me almost 30 bucks, including a dessert you do not see in the pictures. And the burger was very nice looking but a flavor disappointment. What I like the most is to walk a few blocks away from my place. You only have to walk two blocks to the North and you are back to Colombia, out of my gentrified hood. The surroundings are full of car dealers and car body shops, traces of what this area used to be before they started to build 30 stores towers with swimming pool and sauna. I wonder how long all those shops will be able to survive the raise in real state value. I like walking randomly and picking any popular bodega that shows up in my way. Fried chicken and a water, seven bucks. I loved the authentic experience these places deliver. The waiters are not trained for the international neutral politeness, and their warm and welcoming demeanor is 100% sincere. Going back to Fercho, he sent me an updated series of pictures with his offering, almost 100 pics and videos. Out of those, I chose seven and sent them to him with a preference order. I stressed to him that I wanted a guy who was into bottoming and passionate kissing. I made extra clear that I did not want a bottom for pay but a guy who actually enjoys doing it. Fercho told me that he was able to arrange a meeting with my choice #2. I had seen the guy in Mileroticos, and included him in my selection just in case, but he advertises himself as a top. https://co.mileroticos.com/escorts-gay/ateltico-marcado-y-vergon-para-que-comas-bien-rico/25930120/ When Fercho told me he was available, I told him how happy I was as I thought he was only top. Fercho responded that he worked as vers for him. So we closed the deal on Jeffrey. Fercho spelled it as Yefri. I asked him whether we could arrange a previous visit to the hotel as I wanted to know the facilities and pay the deposit. He told me that he could call the hotel and let them know I was going to stop by, but explained to me that I could make a money transference using the Banco de Colombia. I insisted that I wanted first to know the place and we made arrangements for me to stop by on Thursday. So on Thursday I planned to visit Hotel Roma and then walk up to Parque Bolivar, just 15 minutes away. There is a security guard outside the hotel, a not very nice old man, I think he hates his job and the whores place. He opened the doors for me and I met Alex, the guy who is managing the hotel for Fercho. The hotel is a refurnished old house that took me back to the 70s. The rooms are comfortable and with a private bathroom with showers, a mini fridge, a big screen TV, and a fan. There is no A/C. I paid the deposit to Alex and also bought 2 numbers for the raffle that Fercho holds, if you win you have a boy for an hour at the hotel. My date was for Friday at 1pm. I can report that there are no boys hanging out in the place, and the brunch that our Colombia guru @macdaddi recommended has been discontinued. They work strictly with appointments. When I was ready to leave, Alex used a walky-talky to let the security guard know that I was in my way out. When I got to the front door the grumpy old man was already waiting for me. I asked him in what direction I should walk to go to Parque Bolivar and she just pointed with his finger without saying a word. Unfortunately, heavy rain started when I was half way to the parque and had to call an Uber. The following day, Friday, Fercho contacted me in the morning to confirm the appointment. I arrived 5 minutes before the time and Jeffrey was already there. I paid to Aex the rest of the money and he escorted me to the room. He asked me whether I wanted porn on the TV and I told him that I did not. But he insisted, telling me that the boy would need the porn. This was a first bad sign, as he was looking for straight porn on the TV. He invited me to take anything I wanted for the minifridge and left me alone. I felt back to my young years in Corrientes, the room decoration was just what you would expect from a three stars hotel back then. Once Jeffrey was in the room, we started talking and we found out that there was a misunderstanding. He did not know that he was expected to bottom. He told me that he would have bottomed but he had not washed and prepared for it. Plus, when I asked him, he told me that he would do it only for the money but he did not like it. So we cancelled the appointment. Fercho is not a good listener. I explained the situation to Alex and he suggested me to call Fercho and ask for a replacement. I did, and Fercho told me that other of the boys I had selected could be there in 30 minutes. After Alex suggested it to me, I offered to pay for the boy's transportation (Uber moto) if that would speed up the process. I sat to wait at the lobby, sipping a coffee served by Alex. I really felt like in a Time Machine. Not only the place was reminiscent from the 1970s architecture and decoration, but the entire situation reminded me of my 30th birthday. Back then there was no internet, and my hirings were street hustlers. For my birthday I decided to call one of the escorts agencies that used to advertise in Buenos Aires' newspapers. There was a section in the classified ads called Rubro 59. I called an agency and, being the times previous to Internet and smart phones, I provided a verbal description of what I was looking for, They sent me a boy, I did not like him, paid his transportation and sent him back. I called again the agency with adjustments to my description so they would send me another boy. We repeated that process four times, until finally the fifth guy was a match and delivered a great experience. I was seating there wondering whether I was about to experience the same situation, but I did not have to wait much longer. 15 minutes after I talked to Fercho AndrĂŠs arrived. He was perfect for me, and delivered an outstanding experience. For one hour I forgot about Brazil. He came without touching himself while I was screwing him. We had an amazing chemistry, exchanged phone numbers, and made arrangements to meet again without Fercho's intermediation. Once we finished, we took a shower and walked out of the room. Alex immediately walked in to check whether we had consumed anything from their stock. I had brought my own condoms and lube. Alex asked me whether we had used anything and I told him we did not. So if you go be aware that if you use their condoms or take any snacks or drinks, you will have to pay extra money, it is not for free. As soon as I was in my Uber, Fercho called me to check how everything had been and to offer me another boy. It gave me peace of mind to notice that they do not expect you to continue meeting the boys through them once you are introduced. I think it is smart that they let it go, but I was concerned that we were somehow betraying them by arranging other meetings without them. They do not care, and that is great. AndrĂŠs is exactly what I like. Short, he looks like 25 but is actually 30 years old, nice athletic body, he performs as a webcam boy with a fucking machine. He likes pot, and as I have not smoked since I left Salvador, I was beyond happy to meeting him. We will meet again on Sunday, at my place. I asked him for his fee, and he refused to give me a price, saying that whatever I wanted to give him was OK. I offered 120K, and he accepted immediately. Obviously, I could have paid him less than that. The following day (the morning of the day I am writing this report), while is is raining AGAIN) I celebrated in one of my favorite eateries near my Airbnb. Ganso & Castor, a bistro by the MAMM. What you see in the pics, plus two delicious cappuccinos, 24 bucks. Next time I eat out, I will be stoned.   floridarob, Mavica, khaolakguy and 5 others 7 1 Quote
Members Popular Post Latbear4blk Posted November 17 Author Members Popular Post Posted November 17 Finally a sunny day! It is a holiday here and took advantage of the beautiful weather to walk up to Paseo del Rio, an urban park kind of the High Line in Manhattan but here it is placed over the Rio MedellĂn. On November 26th they will inaugurate the Alumbrados (still a work on progress) from here and hopefully I will mingle with the crowd. IMG_8398.mov  I was expecting more people, it was a sunny day after over a week of cloudiness and even heavy rain, and it was a holiday. However, very few people was around and I sat to get a snack in a cafe right in the middle of the Paseo that was empty. Not one customer besides me. I do not understand the locals. Yesterday, Sunday, I met with Andres who delivered again. And besides sex, he delivered something else. 6 beautiful apanados. I had not smoked since I left Salvador, so since yesterday I am in the best of the worlds. We had time to chat, and his profile matches the standard "garoto de programa". 30 years old, based on his texting he is semi literate even when he told me that completed HS and started college, has a 10 years old daughter, lived for 9 years with his daughter's mother but got apart two years ago, spent three years in jail because of drugs dealing. He is currently living with his mother and a sister in a house they own, so they have not rent concerns. I know, the latter does not fit the standard GP profile. As interesting information, @macdaddi, I learned that the boys have to pay in advance to Fercho if they want to join the Finca expedition. 70K is what they pay. AndrĂŠs has never met Fercho. He just got the contact through a common "friend". Indeed, we have to question Fercho's recommendation knowing this. The one priceless advantage from his service is security. The procedure they hace in place with that security guard makes Fercho the safest option by far, but he does not really know the boys in his portfolio.  Mavica, floridarob, tm_nyc and 2 others 3 2 Quote
Members macdaddi Posted November 18 Members Posted November 18 @Latbear4blk thanks for this note. Just glanced at Insta tonight and forgot â you will be in Medallo for la Alborada, the official start to the holiday season on the evening of November 30. The skies will ight up with fireworks, the miradores will be packed with crowds, and everyone will be outside with the music turned up to watch the show. The party goes late so get your disco nap in that day. Latbear4blk, floridarob and Mavica 2 1 Quote

Members Latbear4blk Posted December 1 Author Members Posted December 1 The days are still cloudy and rainy, so when I get a sunny day and have no boy in my bed, I always try to walk around. These last days my most interesting excursion was to Cerro de Nutibara. On top of this hill you have the Museo de la Ciudad de MedellĂn and the famous Pueblito Paisa. As it is a truistic place I never visited it before, but now I have plenty of time. As expected, the Pueblito Paisa is forgettable. I even tried one of the restaurants, and food as well as drinks were not good. The Museo de la Ciudad is also not special. The pleasure arrives when you walk away from the buildings and start exploring the sculptures and the gardens going down the hill. I loved it. I even found a place that seems to be taken from a fairies tale. IMG_8434.MOV  I do not think the video captures the magic, those stone made slides seemed imported from a Cartoons Universe. I missed the Alumbrados inauguration last Friday and will probably miss tonight la Alborada, because I was and am too tired after hot encounters. I have been at the Hotel Roma three times. The second time the security guard was a very hot moreno, I wish I was less shy and would have made a move. Very hot. Unfortunately when I went the third time the grumpy old man from the first visit was back. This time I bring you some pictures:  All three boys were impeccable, this service is indeed recommendable. I just wish they had a catalogue more suitable to my preferences. I am afraid I have already fucked all fuckable (to me) boys in Fercho's book. The first guy has become my regular, our chemistry is amazing. The other two guys were cute and nice, but I did not feel as repeating. I tried to hire from Mileroticos, but we were not able to combine so far with my pick. He is a guy who can be seen in BiLatinMan as Anchor. We are trying to make it work for this Tuesday, his fee is 150K. https://co.mileroticos.com/escorts-gay/modelo-masajista-pasala-una-chimba-versatil/26169083/ When I was giving up after too many tries and failures, I finally harvested from the apps. Last Friday, when I was getting ready to go to the Alumbrados inauguration, and then to Cruising Sauna anniversary party, I found in Grindr one of the boys I follow in Instagram. We clicked. 21 yo, Black, 1,90 m (volleyball player), gorgeous. We slept together that night, first time in a long time that I share my bed not to fuck. The sex was great that night, and even better the following morning and afternoon. He is not an escort, but looking for a sugar daddy. I'll see him again tomorrow. So I missed the 29 years anniversary party at Cruising on Friday and Saturday. And today, Sunday. AndrĂŠs just left and I am too tired to go today to the sauna. I had an idea while I still was with AndrĂŠs, and next Sunday (we always meet on Sundays) we will go together to Cruising. I am very happy with the very liberal visitors policy in my airbnb. As long as they register at the front desk and provide an ID number (they do not even need to present the actual ID card), my visitors can stay for as long as they want, and can even stay overnight. Mavica, neyger, Peter Parker and 1 other 4 Quote

Members Latbear4blk Posted Friday at 10:34 PM Author Members Posted Friday at 10:34 PM Today is Friday, and my visit to MedellĂn is coming to an end. My flight to Buenos Aires is departing this Monday. Sorry I stopped writing detailed posts, but I got busy and was not in the mood to report how a big slut I am. With this post I will start closing this thread, with some last events and final thoughts. Today is the opening of the local Eagle. I learned that one of the owners is the guy who rescued Daddy's website from oblivion. I am right now resting and killing time while I wait for Sebastian, who will be my companion to attend the inauguration. https://www.instagram.com/eaglemedellin/ Tomorrow I am meeting with the last guy Fercho introduced to me. I am sad we met by the end of my trip, because he is fantastic. And on Sunday I will be saying goodbye to Medellin with a big fuck with Andres, the first guy from Fercho, and my favorite by far. Funny anecdote. I will not gibe specifics because I think we have some forum members who are disturbingly weird. But let's say that there is a waiter in my favorite bistro who looked familiar to me. As this is not my first trip to this city, I assumed that he had been working for the restaurant for several years. However, yesterday I realized why he looked so familiar. He is one of the guys included in the bulk of photos that Fercho sends to his WhatsApp List. I started scouting the pics and  was not confident about it, but then one of the photos was a screenshot where I was able to see the guy's name. It was the same name the waiter had in his jacket. I immediately contacted Fercho to warn him about it and to suggest him to erase the photo or edit out the name. The guy is kind of hot, but his pictures had never picked my attention. Chatting with Fercho, he tells me that the guy is versatile and extremely open minded. Even when I had never been interested, the entire situation made me horny and I almost scheduled an appointment. Unfortunately, we did not find a time as my schedule is pretty busy the nest three days. The good thing is that I can cross the street and see him whenever I want to, I just need a way to address him without looking like a weirdo. I do not know whether  or not Fercho told him that a costumer recognized him. If I can put myself together to do it, I can skip Fercho's intermediation. From my conversations with the guys, I learned that Fercho gives them 100K for each client. From my conversations with a few Mileroticos guys, I can tell that the going price is between 100 and 150. Of course there are upscale guys with a higher fee, but those are the prices you should be paying for a standard gay escort. If you are nice and good at negotiating, It is very easy to get prices lower than 100K. There is a general concern here about the sex market going through a slow down, I have heard complains coming from escorts, and Chaturbate and OF models. If your are skilled to work with the boys, we are in a client's market at the moment. I definitely recommend Fercho with some caveats. ou have to be prepared for him sending you a boy who does not match your discussed requirements, and therefore be ready to politely but firmly canceling the appointment and asking for a refund or for a new boy who matches your order. I had that issue with my first order, and then never again. I hired four guys through Fercho. They all were nice and delivered a satisfactory service. Two of them were extraordinary and became my regulars. One of the good things of Fercho is that he knows that he cannot control the relationships between a boy and a client once they met. So he will never mention to you a guy you already met with because he knows that if you liked him, you already got his number and would not need his intermediation any longer. The Hotel Roma is clean and safe, rooms with private bathroom and hot water, and without A/C. Each room has a mini fridge and is well provided with snacks and drinks, as well as condoms and lubes. You can also request Viagra if you lost your pills case. You have to pay 55k in advance to book the appointment. On the day of the date you pay the other 135k before walking into the room with your guy. The place works strictly with previous appointments, and also serves straight trade. I do not know the details of Fercho's deal with the hotel. I noticed a lot of cruising around Parque Bolivar. Some of the guys were hot. However, I do not think it is wise for a visitor to get into street trade nowadays. I feel safer with the apps and the web. If I were living here I think I would try it once I feel more proficient on the local street culture. In my experience, Medellin escorts care much less about condoms than their Brazilian counterparts. I am having a lot of bareback sex, and the guys seem educated and responsible when I discuss the topic with them. The apps gave me only one fruit. I think I would have much more because I am slow and I am starting to feel more comfortable now, when I am about to leave. But after three weeks of virtual cruising, I only got one boy who was not an escort but wanted a sugar daddy. We had a great time, but it is much affordable to hire an escort, so after a week of going out I started to avoid him. Last weekend was our last date and I do not think I will see him again. And I finally did not go to the saunas. Travelingguy and tm_nyc 2 Quote
12is12 Posted Friday at 11:43 PM Posted Friday at 11:43 PM So, paying Fercho 55 + 135 = 190, and he pays them 100; 55%. Is that a standard / fair cut... ? Quote

You are making assumptions. Out of those 90K he has to pay the hotel. I do not know how much money stays in Fercho's hands. Quote
12is12 Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Didnt mean to assume anything. Of course he has his own expenses. The calculation made me think of arrangements in other services Quote

The calculation made me think of arrangements in other services I do not know what the price in other similar hotels is. If you figure that out, and add a plus for the security guard, you may be closer to the figure Fercho keeps. I do not really care about that. What the info tells me is that whatever percentage the procurer keeps, 100K is what the boys get, which is alined with my inquires in Mileroticos., slightly over that number. When I discuss prices, I know that any number above 100 is a good deal for the boys. It is up to me how good the deal can be. Quote
