As someone who hasn't been to Colombia, my position is this. Colombia, in general, has a good reputation, although some of my Rio friends did not like it at all. Smirker is one of them. However, quite a few Rio friends, like Sandman and Cubanut, love the place. So, my general opinion is that Colombia is a pretty good place to go.

Now, Smirker did not enjoy his trip. That's his opinion, and seeing as he has about five trips to Rio in the last two years under his belt, plus some recent Thailand trigger time, he's certainly not a newbie. Thus, his opinion carries weight with me. But, his reports and those of SweetMesquite and others who did not like Medellin or Cartagena or wherever in Colombia will not necessarily cause me not to go.

However, the owner of a hotel coming onto our board and criticizing a member for posting his opinion? Screw that place, the main purpose of this board is to provide information and discussion. Smirker's report is the perfect example of that. Members flaming members, that's fine, that's acceptable to a certain extent. But someone on the other "side", like a hotel owner or guide or even a unit is IMHO unacceptable. Plus, just plain stupid from the hotel owner's position.

I'll be there next week, already staying at the mansion.

This is my take:

Rio and Thailand are "in your face, no brainer" destinations. Pussy is falling from the sky.

I've been to many destinations including Latvia, Panama, Helsinki, and other less frequently traveled destinations.

The fact of the matter is that you have to look for it. There is plenty there, you just need to do your research and not rely on others.

Smirker obviously didn't expect that and had a bad time as a result.

It also appears that he is the type that needs to monger with others and he thought the mansion provided that.

In his defense, the Mansion does participate on this site and does imply on their website that there are a lot of women that hang around all of the time.

So his expectations are set because of the little research he appears to have done.

While I agree that Greg should have actually just toned down his message, he does have a point. And from Bob's earlier post, I think Smirker was refunded his money. That's probably more than I would have done.

I frankly chose the Mansion because of the safe location in the city, at least a few people who speak English to help me out if I need it, and a chance to meet those people whose posts I read on a regular basis to plan for my trip.

Most importantly, I don't need to deal with Hotel Clerks that give me attitude because I want to bring in a few hookers every day.

I made the mistake of staying at the Marriott in Rio during my last trip. Sure, nice place, but the business travelers that were obviously not there for mongering would be giving me looks and attitude while bringing my "date" up to the room.

At the very least, the Mansion makes it a little more comfortable about my hobby.

On the age of consent issue. I think if you want to sleep with a person under 18 and you are even in your 30's, you have a problem. They are kids....period. Who gives a shit that the local country allows it. It is still not right.

I don't even look their way unless they are at least in their early 20's up to about 35 (lets not get crazy, I do monger for a reason! I'm 40). Not because it is legal, because they are old enough to handle the long term impact of being in this business.

I travel with a friend that ONLY goes out with 18 or 19 year olds. Won't even look at someone if they are in their 20's. He likes the innocence. I just don't get it.

I've pointed out hot (I mean a 10!) that is in her 20's and he just says..."To old". If they have a kid, forget it. I've even seen him blow off a girl once he has seen the C-Section scar. She may be rockin' in every other way, he is just super picky.

Permit me to clarify that I am aware of the laws governing Americans who travel abroad, and my statement was in no way meant to imply that I was advising and American to violate the Child Protection Act. "Legal" was meant to imply Legal for Americans, as in that the girl is always 18 or older.

Sorry if there was any confusion. I may edit the post later to better clarify my point.

Irish,

I didn't want to imply that you want to have sex with kids. I don't hope you took it that way.

What I meant to convey is that many are going after 18 and 19 year olds when their 50, thinking that they are going to have a connection with these girls.

What I am saying is that an 18 or 19 year old doesn't even know what to do most of the time. Give me a well traveled 25 year old over a 18 year old any day of the week. They have been around the block a few times and are usually the best in bed.

Also those that look 18 may actually be younger. You are playing with fire.

If anybody doesnt want to stay at my B&B thats fine, I really dont care, its really not a business, Im retired and just rent a few rooms, its my residence and I really had enough of fuckwitts,I guess two in a year is enough, 98% is not to bad
Now I know why Captain Dave in Buenos Aires at the Mansion there has had enough of fuckwits, and Im getting close.
If you want good PR, go and stay with Medellin Bob at El Casitllo, more work for him, less for my staff.
Regards and have anice day !!!

P.S. A bit of info,legal age in Australia is 16 !!!

if we try and organise a girl to go to the airport to pick somebody up, we try our best, if the girl does not turn up to go to the airport then what are we to do

Well, you could start by saying "Sorry, WE fucked up", like your partner (???) appeared to do. YOU, however, rant against the reporter. Nice move.


Americans never cease to amaze me

Exactly what the FUCK does being American have to do with any of this?

Exactly. What does being American have to do with any of this? Sounds like a bit of a hard on for Americans. Anyway, the last post from Aussie1 makes it clear the guy is an asshole and is not interested in having us fuckwits go to the Mansion. Going to MDE in a couple of months and thought I would at least check it out. You have convinced me to stay away. My only question is, why the hell do you even bother posting here other than to slam a contributing member? AZ

This is turned into one of the most valuable trip reports of all time, talk about burying yourself. I guess the Geriatric Australian Lodging Owners Association of Latin America doesn't want our business anymore.

This is starting to get a bit nasty.

If you can, for a second, look at it from Gregs standpoint.

You have a bunch of people bashing you, Bob tries to smooth things over, but you keep on getting bashed.

Wouldn't you strike back a bit?

We've established:

1. Medellin isn't Rio or Bangkok
2. Don't expect the Mansion to be a Terma
3. The Mansion is a nice house in a nice neighborhood, that's it.

Can we move on?

Let's see, Bob posted a great post at 7:46 AM and Scooby responded with a post acknowledging Bob's good apology shortly thereafter. Greg was the poster after Scooby at 1:54 PM and it's off to races. Smirker was not bashing the Mansion, he was reporting on his experience there. The conversation was barely based on the Mansion at that point but rather on Medellin in general.

You can certainly defend the place if you want, but the point not to be missed is what most of us have been posting about the last 18 hours - if you are a hotel owner or guide or pimp or whatever you do that provides support to us on the road, don't come on the board and bash a member for discussing his experience with you.

As far as what you just wrote, there was only one post between Bob's and Greg's and that was Scooby's post. It was not a bash at all. I assume that Greg saw Bob's post and got pissed off that Bob apologized to Smirker, or maybe that he refunded Smirker's dough - which IMHO he didn't need to do so a great gesture on Bob's part.

Wow...and all I thought was this guy is calling my Novia Ana Maria a fat ass! Sheesh! I do want to thank Smirker for doing us all a favor. I just got back from trip #6 in the last six months, all of them at the mansion. I had a blast, but my only concern was too many fucking gringos. If smirker will do his job and keep some of you guys away, it will go a long was to saving Medellin from becoming another Costa Rica. That would be a good thing.

I admit, I am one of the guys who has posted very positive reviews about the Mansion. I do not want to mislead anybody. I just had a great time there and have every single trip. Greg over reacted to somebody calling his baby ugly. I can forgive him for that. Both Robert and Greg are great guys who go out of their way to show guys a good time. Correct me if I am wrong, but Greg was out of the country during Smirkers stay and Robert was sick as a dog. That can explain why they were not able to give Smirker TLC or the "hand holding" he apparently needed.

I do feel bad for smirker, who sounds like a nice guy who was just expecting something completely different. No offense intended, but a lot of this falls on Smirker. If he had really READ my trip reports and not just the first paragraph, he would have gotten ALL the answers he needed. Not just MY reports, but many others have provided TONS of info on Medellin. I love the breakfasts at the mansion. I always have the omelettes with everything, and toast. If he was looking for something different, there is a MacDonalds 3 blocks away...and a great mall with a food court 5 blocks away. Everything is so easy there, I can't imagine him not finding it. Sundays are slow, gotta line something up. BBBJ's are there for the taking.

On trip #5, I landed at 12:30pm, and in the first 12 hours had screwed 5 of the best babes on earth...and gotten BBBJ's from all 5. I did not come with all of them...but I did give them all a thorough workout. I counted 13 different babes I screwed in 4 days, most of them gave me BBBJ, but some of them were because I knew the chica.

Smirker says of Ana Maria: "One of them is the often photographed Ana Marie, who is working under the name Andrea. Someone needs to stop feeding her, she’s put on 15 pounds since her last photos were taken (yes, I know that is the pot calling the kettle black)."

I admit, it was me feeding her. On my last trip I screwed Ana and Daniella non stop for four days and did not pay them, but I did take them all out to the grocery store and filled up their frig with food. I figured I should fatten them all up for you guys so I can have her more to myself. Maybe I over did it! Moooooooooo. Now there is MORE of her to love. Oh, and the BBBJ's just got sloppier after that trip to the super mercado. Nothing like extending your session like filling up a chicas refrigerator. They go BONKERS!

But you were complaining about no BBBJ? I got great BBBJ's from Ana and Juliana. If Ana really likes you she allows CIM! Sorry you did not choose her that night and ignore the new belly roll. By the way, all you had to do when Juliana asked for 300K was drop it in half. She has a standard rate of $150K at the mansion. That is about 70 bucks. I gotta tell you, Juliana rocked my freakin WORLD for that price. Too bad you walked away. Nobody has EVER turned me inside and out like she did. From the first minute to the last, she squeezed every last drop out of me, and left me a quivering mass on the bed....sucking my thumb...muttering "I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy." She did something with my asshole that nobody has ever done...but let's not go there!


I do have to add this important caveat, which I have included in ALL of my trip reports. Medellin is NOT for everybody. In fact if you want to be spoon fed, do NOT go to Medellin. You do have to work for it there. There is no one central location like the Blue Marlin Bar in Costa Rica or HELP in Rio. In fact it is dangerous, the chicas are ugly, they don't work on sunday, there is no food to eat, the mansion's jacuzzi does not always work, the kitchen help in the mansion does not speak english, some of the chicas are fat, and there are scary signs up at the Mansion. The fresh fruit they serve at the mansion is not good for you, there is only one chica at a time dancing naked at Fase Dos, and the weather there SUCKS...no variety. It's always 75 and sunny!

Yes, guys, please do stay away.

If some of you guys don't want us to go to Medellin, why do you post info on the place.Just keep it to yourself if you don't want us "gringos" there.Who do you think is reading your posts,I'm pretty sure it's not Colombianos.Last I checked this was a gringo site.It doesn't make sense at all.You post about your good times and how hot the chicas are(which I don't doubt),now you come on here trying to dissuade fellow mongers,just because someone criticized your precious spot.I'm pretty sure Smirkers report is not representative of what goes on in Medellin, but the guy is entitled to his opinion without being attacked by the Mansion's attack dogs.What a joke,lol.

I will still go to Colombia no matter what some slapdicks say, but now I know who and where to stay away from.Good job Mr Aussie, I think your mission was accomplished,I'm sure for a few dudes(fuckwitts) who were on the fence about your mansion.Besides who wants to stay at a house with a bunch of cats who MIGHT be shagging underaged teenagers anyways,not worth the risk.

Tchau

Gentlemen

Americans do in fact amuse me. And here is why.

I understand that Former President Bill Clinton passed a law enabling the US government to prosecute american citizens who travel with the purpose of having sex with women beneath the age of 18. That is the law for American travelers.

What I find so amusing about Americans is that they take this relatively current legislation and impose that worldview on other nationalities in foreign countries!

News flash for this thread and the world? Just because the USA passes a law governing the actions of their citizens abroad does NOT mean that the rest of the WORLD has to cower in the corner because LEGAL SEX is occurring between consenting adults in a country that is not AMERICA.

Smirker visits a foreign country, sees legal sex occurring and returns to the USA all freaked out. He now feels 'guilty'? that he was witness to legal sex in Medellin? Did he feel guilty when having a beer in front of Help disco at the Terace Atlantica and a girl who was not 18 was there? Probably not. If you were sitting in TA at a table next to girls who were less than 18 and Spaniard men, could you be arrested for it? Probably not.

In addition to all of his other difficulties in Medellin, Smirker posts a whispered, veiled WARNING about 'risks' for staying at the Mansion. Interesting. Yet those same risks apply no matter WHERE an American travels, so why single out one institution? Fact is I have read several warnings on this board that Americans should be careful to check ID's in Cuba, Brazil, Thailand and etc... Colombia is no different.

A gringo in Brazil ran sexcruises on a sailboat out of Rio. Brazilians did not like that. This gringo persisted, and was eventually busted because on that boat there was ONE girl with a FAKE ID. So they shut down the sailboat and put the operator in jail. This operator failed to heed repeated warnings that he was running a high profile sexcruise that Brasilians did not like. In the same manner, Greg needs to be careful not to invite ‘wankers’ who expect a whorehouse with handholding to his B&B. Why? Not only does he NOT run a whorehouse, he has to be careful to avoid the APPEARANCE of running one as well.

I've never had the pleasure of visiting Australia, but most Aussies I've met are pretty decent lads. A bit rough and tumble, but good people. Greg fits that description as well as any. Frankly, I can see how having a steady supply of newbies running around your personal residence might get old. Having met more boardmembers than I ever wanted to, I can sympathize with Greg. There are indeed FAR too many whackjobs and perverts on this board. I certainly wouldn’t want to invite the majority of you to MY house.

Try to rent a private residence in Medellin that offers the same combination of elegance, security, privacy, features and comfort as what the Mansion offers, and you'll be hard pressed. Add free internet, free long distance calls, free breakfast and some camaraderie and there is no other place like it in Medellin.

The Castilla that Bob runs is a block from the Mansion. It is an older property that is every bit as large as the Mansion, but no where near as upscale. It is less expensive than the Mansion. So make your own choice when you visit Medellin. Stay at the Mansion, the Castilla, or find your own accommodations. But bring some game with you. Spanish helps. If you don't speak any, having the assistance of the Mansion staff is far better than staying in a private apartment.

Smirker was dead nuts correct in all of his posts. Medellin isn't for the beginner or the guy who needs a lot of help.

Frankly I did not like the street action in Medellin - very short time attitudes, but for $10USD what do you expect? I ejaculated inside a woman for less than the cost of buying an adult video and a some K&Y.

I never got a BBBJ at Abydos, but the 40 minute session was excellent with a hardbody hottie. For under $40USD that beats the hell outta many other destinations.

International travel to taste the flavors of other women and cultures is why we’re on this website. Make your own decisions about where to travel. If you are American, you now have more information about Medellin.

Let’s see Catacony, Porker or some other American flame THIS!

Exactly WHERE did I flame you? I just asked a question. You answered. I wasn't impressed by your answer. It struck me as just more evidence of an apparent inferiority complex to Americans in general.

But, of course, keep ranting...

I dont set prices, I get enough freebees, I just pass on what the girls want and if asked by guys what they want, as for imflaiming prices, ask Wallstreet, he the one who said about paying 2 to 5 million, aslo he has a few rooms to rent.

Have a very nice day all.

Aussie Greg

Gingo's, have you watched Fawlty Towers, its a British comedy about a guy running a hotel in England, watch it, but then again I think think you will understand good British comedy.

Aussie Greg

"It struck me as just more evidence of an apparent inferiority complex to Americans in general. "

With graduates like Porker, Finishing Schools cannot be blamed for having a "No-refund policy"! What's more, with Ambassadors like Porker, it's no wonder Americans frequently earn the worldwide reputation as being brash and rude.

Yes, you have me pegged. I'm the ugly American. Unwelcome everywhere I go...

A good indicator of how good MDE is for mongering can be summed up in the poll taken in the Poll Section of CH.

MDE received 54% of the votes saying it was the best Colombian destination.

If you don't want to go to the Mansion, don't. Period. There are other options.

Can't we all just get along?

Sniper,

54%
I wish it was below 20%, more for me and you.

Ee2002, you carnt be included in the stats because you havent stayed at the Mansion and never will, its still at 98% but I think I'll lower it to 95% because I can think of a few others that were unhappy to, poor bastards, wouldnt know a good thing even if its hits them in the face.

The Aussie.

It's a good thing the that respect doesn't play a factor in those countries that beg us stupid Americans for foreign aide. The reason that most countries will cow-tow to the US demands for moral and social responsibility is because we finance their incompetant governments.

BTW, Isn't "good British Comedy" an oxy-moron?

Lol-- quite a thread. Perhaps, it's just the prick in me, but I kinda like Assie's retort. Sure, it's a little rough around the edges and not quite the usually customer kissing ass reply we all enjoy, but... informative nevertheless.

Curiousity will now get the better of me and I'm going to make it a point to at least check out the mansion. Aussie, get some hard working ho's ready another incoming undersexed american.

Hey aussie-- what's yur partner sailing on for a boat?

I had planned to stay out of this fray, but The Aussie is implying that I have something to do with rising prices in Medellin.

He says:

“. . . as for imflaiming [sic] prices, ask Wallstreet, he [sic] the one who said about paying 2 to 5 million, aslo [sic] he has a few rooms to rent.”

[FYI – I don’t rent rooms, but after reading this thread, maybe I should start making one of my two apartments available to select people]

Please show me where I said I paid between 2 and 5 million pesos. Maybe you were referring to one of my trip reports – here’s what I actually said:

“I read on another website that some of the girls at Mangos are available. One guy said you could get models to go with you if you had the money. I read it would cost between 500,000 ($217) and 1,000,000 ($434) for the night. Very high by Colombian standards but some of these girls really fit into the 10 category. You get what you pay for.

So I tell Juan, let’s go to Mango’s. I remind him about his conversation with Socrates and he says he also has a friend who works at Mango’s and he can help me find a model. We make a quick stop at a bank and I now have 2,000,000P on me – between that, Juan and my charming personality, this’ll be a slam-dunk.”

So I can see where you got the part about 2,000,000 – can you tell me where you got the 5,000,000.

The whole point of my report was to dispel the notion that P4P is available at Mango’s. It isn’t. I’ve always maintained that – and I’d like to be proven wrong.

I’ve also said that Mango’s dancers aren’t available for P4P. I’m still waiting for proof positive pictures. I know Radioman was willing to pay serious cash – maybe he can shed some light on this.

This segues into an interesting point.

Greg says “we do not set prices, its between the people involved.”

But his partner, Bob, said on this very board:

“I am currently working in discovering which Mango's dancers are p4p, i have narrowed it down to 4 or 5 and trying to get them to offer their services to our guests, allegedly starting at 400,000” 2/5/06

So which is it?

With all due respect to Irishrover and Radioman, who both took Smirker to task for expecting the guys at the Mansion to be there to guide him on his first trip to Medellin, consider this:

Maybe Smirker relied on statements like these from both Bob and Greg:

“We wanted to offer a no brainer mongering experience and I think we achieved this” (Bob 1/8/06)

“. . . but most of all both Medellin Bob´s and I´s personalized service is available at no charge.” (Greg 9/29/05)

No Sunday pool party? Maybe Smirker read this and figured it was a sure thing:

“Soon, internet coverage of our Sunday Pool Parties.” (Greg 1/16/06)


Smirker went to Medellin and stayed at the Mansion. As with even the best-run business, on occasion the ball gets dropped and it clearly did in this case. Bob was sick, and he made arrangements for someone to cover for him, and that person let him down. Bob turned this negative thread around by taking responsibility and so the story ends very happily.

And I do mean happily because it is now very clear what you can expect if you stay at the Mansion.

Well now this has been very interesting, Im going to Medellin, unless your brain dead you'e figured it out. Maybe its because I may be a bit anal retentive,but when I finially decided to go to the Medellin and stay at the mansion I started to do a bit of research on it. That is how my cheat sheet came about "I" found all the info on this and other sites like this. It was from you guys (especially radioman) that I got my info. Ive used the map link at the bottom of the cheat sheet to find how to get to each mongering place you've reported on and how to get there from the Mansion. I bought a Translator because I don't speek spanish I know my limitations and Im doing everything to make my stay a pleasent as possible.

Im not going to rely on Greg or Bob to find me pussy why should they besides Im a cheap screw who want to get alot of "bang" for my buck. I have found out where the Love Hotels are and how to get there. From radiomans report I see that you can get very nice ladies right off the street.

Anyone going anywhere and not being prepared deserves what they get. The mansion is not a babysitting place we are all grown men (i hope) and as grown men your going to have shitty vacations and fantastic ones. I personally got alot from Smikers report I know what not to do.

Iam going to make my own fun Im using the mansion as my staging point and really wish some of you would be there so we can party together. I have worked in the hospitality industry before and people are a pain in the ass. And you get tired of them and their bitching so give Greg a little break. I for one thank him for providing a place for us to go & be safe. On the other hand Smiker has a right to say wht ever he wants here. So neither is wrong give them both a break and enjoy yourselves. Lifes to short

RG...thanks for the Apology...

I agree that most Aussie's are cool...however Greg isn't one of them...IMHO. I am not sure you are reading his post on this thread...He is Immature and verbally abusive...if he cant offer costumer satisfaction and is crying about fuckups staying at his place maybe he should find a different retirement plan. Now I am totally aware that he wasn't there during Smirkers stay...would it have been different if he was there?....who knows....but judging from my own experience and that of others and the actions written on this thread, I think you will find the case in point.

You also wrote:

Stay tuned my friends, there will be a new place with all the same amenities and more. It will be much nicer, more private and the security there will be first rate.....and further more you will get great customer service...the way AMERICANS are use to. I will keep everyone posted, look for this around the end of April.

Now Robert did the politically correct thing by refunding his money and letting everyone here know he did....but that's the way Robert works...he is the "Good Cop" Me personally. I have never had a problem with Robert.

RT....Ditto

"Medellin is not for everybody" I am so tired of hearing this...if you don't like drop dead beautiful women, I guess it isn't for you. If your scared of not being able to speak Spanish...hire a guide or Translator its cheap.

Has any body seen Fawlty Towers on T.V. ? staring John Clees

Aussie Greg

I can't believe this discussion is still going on. We seem drawn to it like flies on crap. But I admit I am one of those flies.

My friend Wallstreet says: "With all due respect to Irishrover and Radioman, who both took Smirker to task for expecting the guys at the Mansion to be there to guide him on his first trip to Medellin,"

I did not mean to take Smirker to task for that, sorry if I left that impression. The guys at the Mansion do pride themselves with being helpful for newbies. I did take him to task for not preparing for the trip. He did not read or remember most of the good trip reports here so he would know where to go and what to do.

Case in point. Before my first trip to MDE, Wallstreet reported on the street girls of Calle 53 so well that I was determined to find them. My first few days were failures because the cab drivers could not find the location. But because of those excellent reports I knew they were there and I persisted. When I finally did find the spot, it was a gold mine. But I knew it was there because I studied all the reports and really prepared. I did not run off to a strange foreign place like Colombia acting like I was going to San Diego. Look above and see what Scooby and Sniper are doing as they prepare for their virgin trips to Colombia.

Guys, this is not Disneyworld for Mongers. This is a wonderful and strange place, that requires some learning and discovery. It will not be easy the first time you are there. But the rewards are great for those that persist. Frankly, the adventure of finding those places I have only read about makes these trips ever more exciting to me.

I do not write my trip reports to encourage a bunch of yahoos to run down there and overpay for chicas and screw it up for the rest of us. I write my reports for myself...as a way of memorializing my awesome experiences. Sometimes I go back and read a report I wrote a year or two ago and am reminded of things I had forgotten. If it helps a few of you, I am happy for that, but I am not trying to send a bunch of you down there with false expectations. I try my best to be honest and report the good and the bad.

As for Aussie Greg, I admire the guys tenacity, but he has become a friend of mine so consider the source. I really think he would rather some of you guys with the negative attitudes would stay away. He runs a great place, but sometimes guys are a pain in the ass and expect way too much. It is a B and B for mongers. It is a hell of a good idea, and I will go back for Trip #7 soon, but not soon enough.

Wallstreet....on trip #6 I never made it back to Mangos so never had the chance to make my obscene offer to the young hottie that rocks my world everytime I am there. She is still only in my dreams. The primas took me to a new place that is just as wild, and I forgot the name, but will remember it soon enough.

DJAnselmo: Best of luck on your new B and B that will provide another place to stay down there. I am glad that you were upfront about your intentions. I see no problem with a little friendly competition. God knews there are enough chicas for everybody.

As for Juliana's pricing...I appreciate the fact that the guys at the mansion have asked her to keep her price to that $150K if she hooks up with guys there. They are looking out for the guests and don't want the pricing to get out of whack. I have done chicas for much less I found at the Mansion...as low as $50K but Juliana was well worth her price. Again, let the buyer beware. A chica asking for double what you should pay??? My God, I never heard of that before. My first street chica asked me for $12K which was 5 bucks, so you can find chicas in all price ranges. It was not Juliana style sex, but it was a helluva price.

I was just surprised that a monger with the experience of Smirker did not seem to know that. He has been to Rio and Thailand. All the chicas start out at double the going rate. He heard the 300K, got disgusted and walked away with no counter offer. I just felt bad for him that he missed out on one of the most amazing sex freaks in the southern hemisphere because he was afraid to negotiate. He could have had her for 150K. I know that because I did a few weeks before and that is an agreed upon price for guys staying there. That's about $70 bucks.

Aussie Greg explained that the only chicas hanging around the mansion are ones that he personally knows and invited. I like that, because it means these are higher quality girls. Trust me, the chicas WANT to be on the "call list" at the Mansion. They make sure these are good girls, and if they aren't the chicas do not last that long at the Mansion. I have seen some amazing babes at the Mansion. That is how I first met Ana and Daniella.

I called Ana Maria today and put her on weight watchers. She denied that she has turned into a "gordita" but I know otherwise thanks to Smirkers excellent reporting. If anybody else spots her before I get down there, take that candy bar away from her and point her to the excercise bike.

Irishrover, you wrote:
Frankly, I can see how having a steady supply of newbies running around your personal residence might get old. Having met more boardmembers than I ever wanted to, I can sympathize with Greg. There are indeed FAR too many whackjobs and perverts on this board. I certainly wouldn’t want to invite the majority of you to MY house.

Maybe I have not met as many hombres as you have, but I have to say I have met some great guys through CH and had a lot of fun hanging out. I cant think of anyone I would not have over, well except maybe Jaguar. Oh wait I guess I could put up all the breakables like when my grandson comes over…….wait a minute, maybe I am one of the whack jobs. I guess I am not going to get an invite to your place IR. Seriously, it is amazing the attacks over one persons trip report. He called it like he saw it and that is it. He contributed to the board, which is what CH is about. By the way Irishrover, I could not find any of your trip reports. Are they under a different name?

All of this aside, I can not wait for MDE and CTG in May. AZ, just another American whack job, fuckwitt.

Ah those bitter little Aussies and Brits....envious that their older brother has it all and continue to get drunk and fight just to forget their inferiority. Oh I cant wait until American soccer passes up English soccer in about 12 years...then American will be better than the English at EVERYTHING.

Hello Gents,

I go away for a month and come back to the board to find a little bit of rough play going on in the playground. Oh well, mongers will be mongers.

I was not going to post anything myself on this post because all of you were doing such a great job but alas I was drawn into it. Why? Why simply because "I LOVE FAWLTY TOWERS".

Fawlty Towers ran on British television from 1975 to 1979.
John Cleese (of Monty Python fame as well as many American movies including "A Fish Called Wanda") played Basil Fawlty, owner of the Fawlty Towers Hotel. Prunella Scales played his wife Sybil. Connie Booth (who made appearances on Monty Python) played their maid Polly Shearman and was in real life married to John Cleese from 1968 to 1978. My favorite character was of course their Spanish servant Manuel (from Barcelona) played brilliantly by Andrew Sachs (of Jewish heritage).

I was a big fan of Monty Python's Flying Circus in the late 70's when I would watch a rerun episode every Sunday night on my public telivision station. The same public station started airing rerun episodes of Fawlty Tower in the early 80's on Saturday afternoons and I was hooked. Basil Fawlty's constant terrorizing of Manuel and his guests would have me laughing in stitches at times. Business seldom ran smoothly at Fawlty Towers.

Many years later one of the major networks tried an American version of Fawlty Towers. The series was called by a different name though which I long forgot. I could swear that it starred Harvey Korman of the (Carol Burnett Show fame). I tried to do a google search on Harvey but could find no TV series that he was ever in that matched. I do remember seeing just two episodes and I'm sure it was quickly cancelled because the same skits in an American setting were not funny at all.

John Cleese and (then his wife)Connie Booth co-wrote the series Fawlty Towers which was based on a real-life impertinent hotel owner's frustrations that John happened upon when he and the Python crew once inconvenienced the owner by staying in his hotel.


**My post has nothing to do with whatever else is written above, it only pertains to the question of if anyone had ever seen Fawlty Towers**

IMDB always has the answer

Is this it, Cubanut?

Medellin and Cartagena, here I come.

Life is a gift. Maybe it is time for everyone to realize it. Think about the poor guy who will never get the opportunities we have. We are pretty damn lucky, whether we are Americans, Aussies or just the average fuckwit.

It's disappointing to see some of the personal attacks, whether it is on Smirker, Wallstreet or anyone else.

Let's move on.

Blazers,

Technically, wouldn't the English be the older brother? Or perhaps the stepfather?

I remember the classic line from the movie with Tom Seleck "Quigly Down Under" When he was ridding in the wagon out to the ranch way out in the outback. The british soilder officer told him that they were trying to keep the riffraff out of Austrailia. Quigly (Tom Seleck) said Im paraphrasing but it went something like " We kicked all the riffraff out of America a while ago kicked them all the way back to England"

GOD BLESS AMERICA

This tread is very entertaining. I have traveled the globe and enjoy reading foreign papers always comenting on the U.S. The press wants to sell papers or network time, no wonder the U.S. has the image it has.

I have paid my dues and enjoy comfort, I no longer want to spend my nights in the boyscout cabins, that is why I pay the Marriot, Sheraton, Sofitel what they want for a comfortable room.

As for Sweet not liking MDE.....my understanding from Sweet was he did not like the lack of pre-sex, the interaction one would get in the boite. MDE was more like taking your grocery cart down the isle and picking a hen out of the case; a little colder than what you would find in Rio.

I read MB's comments first and thought "great customer service". Then AB's and thought Fuck them, free or not, I would not return to that property. Within reason I want comfort, I will not sacrifice my vacation or p4p action for stress from a property. All any property has to sell is "SERVICE". When you are staying at a property, you are a captive audience. Same as the airlines, prices are about the same, but why pick one over the other....service.

Oh that is right, I am an American and have been pampered all my life. How could I forget. Don't forget, we want to police the World also...Fuck that....each country can fuck themselves.

As for me, MDE and the mansion was on my short list, the mansion just got dumped from the list. Greg will have one less whiney gringo to worry about pampering.

Seque99,

"Technically, wouldn't the English be the older brother? Or perhaps the stepfather?

Technically speaking, I think the English would be the father (and mother). The USA, having been founded by the more intelligent brits (albiet puritanical) would be akin to the enlightened fathers, brothers, cousins, etc of the land down under.
Seriously now, I really enjoy brits and aussies-- great fun to hang with and they do know how to party!

Wallstreet,

Read your post again about Mango's that you wrote a few months ago about P4P, mango's dancers etc, you'll get my drift, but then again probley you will not.
The Aussie
P.S. Did you het an invite the the Mango's dancers going away party, the group thats going to FL for a month working ! you know them all dont you.

Greg....Grow up and stop acting like a 3 year old. I have to say i am glad you are on this board...now you can keep sticking your foot in your mouth.

Seque99, all I can say, dam Colonial upstarts.

Hunter

Wow. I arrived late to the scene here, but I must say, it's been awhile since I've seen quite so much ugliness amidst so little useful information. Any chance we can call a truce or just bring this name-calling to an end?

-- I understand that Former President Bill Clinton passed a law enabling the US government to prosecute american citizens who travel with the purpose of having sex with women beneath the age of 18. That is the law for American travelers.--

That is incorrect as the law quoted by Irishrover is outdated. The present law does not include an intent requirement, you no longer have to "travel with the purpose of having sex with women beneath the age of 18"; to violate the law you now simply have to have sex with a woman under the age of 18 .

Incidentally, in the United States presidents do not pass laws, Congress does although the president can sign a law after it is passed by both houses of Congress.

--the same argument applies to Brazil, where the age of consent is similar to Colombia--

Although I am not an expert on Brazilian law, my understanding is in the P4P domain, the age of consent is 18 in Brazil (we are talking about P4P on this site, right?). Although as noted I am not an expert on this, I submit I probably have more accurate information on this subject than the outdated website cited by Irishrover, which nonetheless sets the age at somewhere between 14 and 18. Since that information was posted in 2001, the since elected President Lula has increased efforts to stop the exploitation of minors.

Although I'm not terribly interested in getting involved in this thread, I am doing so because I wouldn't want anyone to get into trouble as a result of relying on Irishrover's posting of false information.

SMIRKER,

Read this from a guy who wittnessed your exploits in MDE and sent me this e-mail and I quote !!!

I then took this new guy from *, his name is *. He came in last pm and I met him with Robert and two other guys that just left this am at Fossy Doss. We just came back from New Life. And the whole fucking time this guy is talking abd the comparasion in his eyes about Brazil and Colombia. Fuck, this guy has only been in Colombia for 12 hours and already been complaining to me about the girls. He said that him going first to Brazil spoilt him. I'm thinking what the fuck are you doing here.
This guy is a weiner, cry's like a baby !!!

Admin: Personal information about other members should be left out of posts

what are you going to do next ag; complain he backed up your toilet. how fucking stupid are you??? why would you publicly bash a board member on a site that has how many thousand mongers who may have considered using your property????

what did you do for work prior to retiring and opening the mansion??? it definitely was not dealing with the public.

This website is about sharing info on mongering destinations and the chicas and not info about other hombres.

Holy shit.

That's one crazy aussie.

I guess alcohol and Aussies don't mix well.

I encourage Hombre to copy this trip report into the thread for The Mansion. I think that anyone considering traveling to Medellin in the future should be able to read this to help them decide whether or not to stay at The Mansion.

Cat: The link to this thread is https://www.clubhombre.com/discus/messages/1718/68907.html?1142190203. Any ideas about how to direct those who read the Mansion thread to read this one as well?? Go for it bro.

I just finished reading this thread and I'm shocked at the behavior of the owner of the Medellin Mansion. Whatever happened to, listening to your customers and dealing with complaints in an appropriate manner. One of the golden rules of customer service is "never argue with the customer!"
