I just returned from Buenos Aires. I'm very excited because I leased an apartment for a year just as I said I was gonna do. Due to time constraints I'm gonna cut and post from another board I'm on. I also took many photos. Not sure if I'll post them all but I'll definitely send in many of them.

_____


I don´t have anytime to read the posts or post too much. I´ve been VERY VERY busy this trip. I´m having the time of my life. God I love my life. I just arrived yesterday. Saw two girls yesterday (one from area-vip.com and one from Salome).

Weather is perfect. Exchange rate is 3.51 pesos to the US dollar. I looked for apartments yesterday and I´m excited to report that I´m signing the lease today. I leased it for an entire year. I´m spending more than I want to spend but it´s awesome and in a GREAT area in Recoleta. It´s just a few blocks from Black´s and the Alvear Palace hotel. (A special thanks to Ezy who told me about this place. Hey Ezy...you´re real estate agent is gonna make a nice commission. She was complaining that she has been looking over a month for you and you don´t bite. I told her to be thankful that she knows you because you referred me to her. ).

Ha, ha. She was laughing because within 15 minutes of meeting her I was making an offer. It´s gonna set me back over $4,000 US plus commissions and deposits but I love it. I´ll probably be renting it out to a select group of individuals. Stay tuned.

I´m gonna see some more girls today and do some shopping. Then the gang is meeting for our Thanksgiving dinner. Wish you all could be here.

Life is good. REALLY good.

Hi guys. Quick report. Having the time of my life. This might be my best trip yet! The quality in the clubs isnt as good as previous trips still. I dont care what anyone says..Blacks has the hottest girls! Last night we hit a bunch of clubs and they all sucks except for Blacks. Man, I pulled a cutie out of there that I knew from before. I never saw her before but took her out to eat with her friend. She was hands down the best session not only of BA but of my life.

Simply amazing. Maybe its just because she clicked with me but no holds barred best sex ever. Very GFE. She asked for a pie in the sky number at first but I got it down. It was 4 AM by the time we left Blacks. I got her down to 200 pesos but she asked if i was happy with the session if she could get 300 pesos. I thought this was fair. I told her if the session was good Id give her more. Needless to say I gave her 300 pesos. We arrived at my hotel shortly after 4 AM and she left around 7 AM. Needless to say Im tired. I slept only 3 hours last night because my chica friend called me at 10 AM and woke me up wanting to come over again.

Exchange rate yesterday was 3.55. Today is 3.51. Im going through tons of money. Yikes! The party last night was simply amazing. GREAT, quality guys. This was monumental. It was I that first started the plans for a Thanksgiving dinner. I had about 12 guys. Then Jackson contacted me and asked to plan a bigger one. No problem. There was no way I could have put together a better dinner. We had a private room with about 20 people including Mayri of www.argentinago.com and two of Jacksons female friends (Maria and Roxanna) that were simply delightful. Two of the most intelligent, non-judgemental, sophisticated, articulte women Ive ever had the pleasure to meet. Many of you should definitely meet these girls. They are NOT providers but can help you with appointments if you dont speak Spanish.

More later. Kick Stand and I are going to eat. He did a 2 girl show last night with Paola and Andrea of Playwoman but I guess he was disappointed. (Maybe its because the guy is simply too ummm....grande. I dont think many can handle him). Oh well.

Life is good. Im in love.......thank god its not a girl. Its Buenos Aires.

Man..what a day. Ezy. No need for your attorney. I spent over 1 1-2 hours today at the ¨closing¨today. Everything went great. I paid for the entire year ahead of time. I also am getting cable, telephone, tv, vcr, cable internet access and I will most likely have a computer hooked up in my apartment. It´s awesome! I love it.

I was all set to see an area-vip girl today. The front desk calls my room and tells me my friend is here. I tell them to send her up. Well it wasn´t my girl from area-vip. It was a girl I am friends with from the clubs. Long story short....we start going at it hard and heavy. The hotel calls my room shortly after and tell me my friend is here...ha,ha. I had the guy come up. I told him to take this money down to the girl for her trouble (100 pesos). I ended up having a 3 hour session with my amiga. She just left. She didn´t want any money but I gave her 300 pesos for the gum that she gave me. (she gave me a stick of gum and I told her I was paying for that). Oh yeah....during the session Sandy from escorts-argentina calls me and asks if i want her to come over now. Is this a great city or what?

I take possession of my apartment in 2 weeks when i return. I have the apartment for an entire year with an option to renew at the end of the year. Meanwhile I´m looking for 2 or 3 more apartments.

I only slept 2.5 hours last night. My girl from Salome left at 7 am and i got a phone call at nine thirty. I´m dead tired. My eyes are blood shot but i´m looking forward to the party tonight with all the guys.

Dkell70. There are a lot of options for apartments but unless you are coming down alot it won´t make sense. It´s still cheaper to get a hotel. Also, it´s very difficult to sublet an apartment. I had to take special measures and wording in the contract and I still didn´t flat out tell them i was gonna sublet it. I just told the owner I had some friends that might use it. He told me no problem as long as i wasn´t having a big party every night. I´ll probably rent it out to selected individuals. Probably around $40 US a night or so. Not bad when you consider the location and all the amenities. I took some pictures and can email later to people that are interested. Also, remember that the hotels tack on a 20% tax.

I think Jackson was gonna do the same thing. His location is better than mine! Also, it´s not as easy as you think to rent. All kinds of special laws. Be prepared to have a BA company vouch for you or if you own a company in the USA it will be easier. They had to verify all kinds of information on me before they would rent it.

More later.

P.S. Ezy, you´re agent is very very happy now. She made a nice little commission in a day´s worth of work. Í´m having her look for 1 or 2 more. Life is good my friend.

A dude last night was telling me he saw a cutie for 40 pesos plus taxi fare from the Clarin. NOT my style. I've never called a Clarin girl and never intend to. Keep in mind many guys have different standards. I saw pictures of the girls all these guys were raving about at Madaho´s and I thought she was marginal at the very best. Just my personal opinion. She looked older.

I´m seeing yet another Area-vip girl in 2 hours. Kick Stand is seeing a girl from Platynum that I set him up with. 250 pesos for 2 hours. The girl wanted 300 and it took a lot to get her down. The premium hottie girls aren´t coming down too much from their asking prices. Speaking spanish definitely helps.

Kick Stand and I went to Congreso area to eat today. Soap opera story that I´ll tell later. I think my one girl from the clubs is stalking me. She was there! She was the same girl that just showed up to my hotel. Oh well. Be careful with these girls. The name of the restaurant is Toronto. It´s great and a good chance of pace. Buffet style food.

Also, be very careful. I noticed some of the clubs are trying to sneak in extra prices. At Playwoman the girl tried charging for extra drinks for me and 2 other dudes. We corrected her. Also, I was paying Kick Stand´s bill and the girl charged for 3 drinks per girl instead of 2 saying that if you pull a 2 girl out of there it is a 3 drink minimum. I didn´t argue with her but not sure if this is true or not. I paid it without incident and still tipped her. (Ask for Mariela there...she is an honest waitress that speaks english and is very nice). I asked our waitress for her and she lied and told me she wasn´t working. Then when i was leaving with the 2 dudes..she saw me and said hello. Then asked why i didn´t ask for her. I told her and then she confronted the other waitress. Oh well.

Also at Black´s the door girl tried scamming me. The entrance fee is 20 pesos and I gave her a 50 peso note. She only gave me back 10 pesos. I told her she owed me 20 more pesos. What a scam artist. If you´re drunk or not paying attention they will try to scam you. Also, she asked if this was our first time here. ALWAYS say NO if they ask you this. She had a walkie talkie and I´m sure they will signal upstairs to let them know you are a rookie. Always tell them you´ve been here several times. The restaurant today didn´t try scamming me but the guy was joking I think. Our tab was 36 pesos for both of us. The guy told me the bill was noventa pesos. At first I gave him 100 peso note and told him to keep the change. Then he laughed and said he was kidding. I wasn´t paying attention. I ended up giving him 50 pesos and letting him keep the change. Be careful.

Many of the girls remember me from previous visits. Every club I have been in the girls come up to me right away and say hello. Í´m not sure if that is good or bad...ha, ha. Same at Blacks. I knew many of the girls there and some of the waitresses.

I´m dead ass tired right now operating on about 8 or 9 hours sleep in the past 3 days. I´m gonna go shower then get ready for my girl. So far all of the girls have allowed me to take pictures. Damn...some real cuties! Design Suites has been great. The staff here is excellent. They allow 2 girls at one time and they are pretty much the best service of any hotel in BA so far. I´m still looking forward to moving into my apartment. I was showing girls digital pictures of it and they were lusting after it. All have said once I move in they want to come over to my apartment for FREE!! Damn I love this city.

Today I talked to a lady that brokers apartments. She needs SIX apartments so I´m in the process of negotiating to find 6 apartments so this might be useful to some of you. But an American company wants 6 apartments for six months. I´ll keep everyone posted.

More later. Gotta rest up a little and shower. Florida street was great. Lots of great deals on clothes, leather products and suits. The only thing that was more expensive here is electronic products which are about 40% higher than the US due to import fees and taxes.

Life is good.

P.S. Another special thank you to all the gentlemen I met last night. You really are a great group of guys that I had the pleasure of meeting. I´m sure I´ll see many of you here again.

It´s a paradise here. NO place quite like it. Plus, unlike many other countries...they love Americans here. I´ve NEVER had any problems whatsoever here. Everyone is friendly and I feel like a local now.

Ok, I just finished just short of a 2 hour session with Lorena from Platynum (she is also on Area-vip). She looks like her pictures so what you see is what you get. The only thing not noticeable on the pictures is she has a scar on her face but it won´t bother anyone. Just a very pretty girl. She speaks Portuguese and Spanish. She is from Brazil. (did I mention that I love these Brazileras also...). She let me take tons of pictures of her. Sexy girl with great natural breasts if you´re a breast man. Very funny too. We spent a lot of time joking around. She is a TRUE independent and doesn´t work for anyone else. Very GFE session. I paid 200 pesos plus taxi fare but she said she usually charged more. She said usually 200 pesos per hour so YMMV. Of course she doesn´t look exactly the same or as good as the site but what girl does...

Photos: Lorena 01 02 03 04 05

Also, if you stay in the Design Suites..beware. The only negative I´ve come across is the rooms in the back tower have 2 rooms per floor. The walls are paper thin. When the other person is watching tv or talking on the phone I can hear them clearly. Alternatively, I´m sure they can hear my activities too. Last night as I mentioned I arrived home around 4 AM with my Black´s girl. She stayed until 7 AM and we played almost the entire time. We were both quite vocal.

Anyway, this morning when I was leaving the hotel I bumped into my neighbor. She was this Argentine woman. She looks very noble and wealthy. She was dressed very nice. I said, ¨hola, buenos dias¨. She didn´t respond. She just gave me a look of disgust...ha, ha, ha. Oh well. I´m very discreet in the hotel but can´t help my activities in the bedroom.

I´m going out to eat with Mayri, UWphoto, Kick Stand, Ezeamante and maybe one or two others. Should be fun. Plan on hitting the clubs afterwards. I want to hit Black´s again. If it was as good as last night I should be in business. I´ve had very little luck at the other clubs. I´m kind of picky and didn´t see many that I liked in the clubs this trip. I could have easily tagged at least 5 girls last night in Black´s.

I just bumped into two guys from the board in the lobby while I´m typing this. One was at the dinner last night. He also said he saw Lorena. He said she was ¨cold¨with him. This is wear speaking Spanish comes in handy. She was kind of distant for the first 10 minutes. Then I started joking around with her and she was cracking up laughing. First she started just with small pecks on the lips then within a few minutes we were in full blown deep french kissing. YMMV with her. I usually have great sessions with girls even other dudes have cold sessions with. I´m NOT shy and I joke around with the girls alot. I´m also younger which may or may not help.

I´m going through money faster than any trip I´ve taken for this short of a period of time. Oh well. You only live once right....

Weather is PERFECT in the 80´s during the day and nice at night. Exchange rate is good. Many of the stores on Florida Avenue today were letting you buy clothes at an exchange rate of 4 pesos to the dollar. Also, a lot of guys asking to exchange money. I´ve never used these guys and don´t intend to but they seem safe. Just look at your money closely.

Many people begging for money. Seems like there is more this trip than before. It´s very sad and my heart breaks saying no to them. I´m a sucker. I usually give them $1 US. I know many of you are against this but I feel better. I always over tip too. Just a personal thing. I usually bring 150 - 200 $1 US bills and I always go through all of them by the end of my trips. I´ve only been here a few days and I only have about 30 left. I also use them in the taxi´s since I usually find it hard to get small peso notes.

I´m starting to hit the wall. Every trip my eyes are always usually bloodshot. Those of you that see me here will notice that...ha, ha. I just have to learn to take naps but seems like my hotel phone or cellphone is always ringing. I´m loving life right now. Lots of good American dudes in BA.

Oh yeah...I´ll reiterate about being careful with the girls. I think it´s great if you have a ton of money and want to buy the girls presents, clothes, etc. Some dude just bought one of my amigas that works in a club a ring, tons of clothes and gave her $200 US. She didn´t ask for any of it. It was her birthday. Afterwards she is telling me how great it is and how this dude is professing his love for her. All the while she is asking if she can come over to my hotel. I just feel bad sometimes for dudes that let their hearts get into it. Most forget that it´s all business with most of these girls. There are exceptions to this rule but be careful.

Oh man. I can’t even begin to remember all the things that happened. Now that I’ll probably be going down so much more often I’ll probably post less and less. In all reality I don’t need to post anymore. Before my first trip there were barely any posts on Buenos Aires. Now there are tons and tons of guys and I’ll let them post their adventures. I’ll probably keep my postings to the private boards but I’ll always post some tidbits to this general board if time permits.

I just returned to the USA and was in my office before noon. I’m exhausted. I had a great time. This was probably the most fun of all my trips even though it was a short trip. I’ve been really lucky to have met some class acts. Guys like UWPhoto and Kick Stand are life long friends now. I also enjoyed meeting so many of you that I can’t even begin to remember your screen names. I apologize. Just too many dudes and not enough days to get them straight.

Yeah, Kick Stand had one 24 hour period where the dude was cursed. Seemed like no matter what he did he ended up getting screwed. Although I gotta say that my last day before I was leaving I call his room after my chica left. I told him I’d say goodbye and stop by his room. He told me he had a 7:30 PM session but I should still stop by. I told him if he was in the middle of the session he need not come to the door. Well, a little after 7:40 PM..i go to his room. I knock on the door and I can hear this chick moaning really loudly…..so I guess his bad luck ended…ha, ha, ha. Way to go amigo!!

After I saw Lorena from Platynum, I hooked up with Kick Stand and we met UWPhoto at Café Orleans. As always I didn’t see anyone that I would pay to see. There were a few ok girls but nothing that I would seriously consider. Most of the girls seemed older than my preference. UWPhoto got a number of this chick. We ate some snacks here because we weren’t meeting Mayri and her friends until 12 AM.

Well, afterwards we had some time to kill. I had the bright idea to go to this way far away area. One of the girls I know told me about this club a long way from town. She told me there were some cuties. It was in a neighborhood that most would never visit. It was past Flores. Our taxi driver got lost and had to ask about 4 times. Our taxi ride was 16 pesos if that gives you an idea of the distance. Long story short….we get there and they did not let us past the main room. It was kind of a private club. They didn’t like Americans here. Me, UWPhoto and Kick Stand stood out like sore thumbs. The dude tried telling me this wasn’t a ‘boliche’. Anyway, I’m pissed but don’t want to create a scene. We leave. I can laugh about it now but I felt bad for UWPhoto and Kick Stand. Oh well..yet another adventure.

I can tell Kick Stand at this point is frustrated because earlier in the day a girl no showed. I set up an appointment for him and the girl was really nice on the phone with me but she clearly told me that my friend would have to pay more simply because she could charge more since he didn’t speak Spanish. I got the price down to 250 pesos for 2 hours. I set the time for 6 PM..same as my appointment for Lorena. I guess she no showed. He called her at 7 PM and she made up some story how she thought it was for 7 PM then wanted more. Not sure if she even knew it was the same appointment. Long story short she screwed him. He might want to provide her name so people can avoid.

So after our adventure to no man’s land Kick Stand has to go back to hotel to change his clothes. Of course, UWPhoto and I are not about to just wait around in our rooms for even ½ an hour. Why waste 30 precious minutes in BA??? I can’t stand just hanging out in my room. That’s why I never nap. We head to Cutty Shark. It’s dead but we have a drink and talk and joke around. We always have a good time together. One of the other dudes I met at the dinner walks in. We chat with him a little while and we have to leave. I forget his handle but a super nice guy that I enjoyed meeting.

Uwphoto and I duck in to Hook’s and it looks ok but we have to go meet the gang for dinner in Puerto Madero. Traffic was killer and we were a little late. We meet up with Mayri, her 2 friends who were sisters (who were gorgeous and what I consider to be GFM- girlfriend material), Ezeamante, and Kick Stand. Great restaurant that I’ve been to every trip. Great service. Puerto Cristol is the name of it. Our waiter was awesome. Only in BA will you see a restaurant packed at 2:00 AM. Our dinner was great! Us guys split the tab and I gave the waiter a 100 peso tip. It was 2:30 AM before we left the place.

UWPhoto and Kick Stand decided to hit the downtown clubs and Ezeamante and I decided to hit Black’s. Ezeamante is a super nice guy that I enjoyed meeting. If any of you get the chance to hook up with him definitely do it. We are planning to hit Cuba together in February if any of you want to join us.

Black’s was dead. It really sucked. We left before finishing our first drink. We hit Shampoo and he wanted to introduce me to his waitress friend. The place was extremely dark. I don’t like this place but I’m sure there are girls to be had here. Next we hit Playwoman. It also sucked. At this point it is like 3:30 AM. We leave and he decides to go home. I don’t plan on going home alone. Earlier in the night my girl from Salome called me and asked to come over. I couldn’t because I was busy but I told her I’d go there if I had time. Well, I did. I went there and she was sitting alone by the door. BINGO. One drink and I was out of there with her. We never even discussed money or prices. The first time she wanted 150 pesos.

Photos: Salome 01 02 03 04 05

She was great just like before. She stayed until like 5 AM. When she was leaving she never asked me for any money. She was halfway out the door when I told her I didn’t pay her. She just replied, “no problema amor”. I always pay even if they don’t ask (which believe it or not happens more than you would think). I gave her 200 pesos. She is half Brazilian and half Paraguayan. Man did I have a GFE session.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. Earlier in the day when Kick Stand and I were shopping on Florida Street I stopped in a CD Store. When I was in Mexico City last month 2 girls in a row asked me if I had music from Christian Castro when I asked them what they wanted to listen to. I had this big cd case full of music but nothing from this dude. I never listened to anything from him but I was sure to bet if two girls asked me (one was from Buenos Aires and the other from Rio) it was probably ok. Well, at the CD store. I tell the story to Kick Stand. I ask a girl and she smiles and says..of course they have it. We look at the cd and the cover looks really gay. Some photo of the single with his face up close. Kick Stand just starts laughing. He said no way he is standing in line with me to buy it. I’m sure it would be the equivalent of some dude buying an Air Supply CD here in the USA.

Ha, ha. Oh well. I wanted to see why these girls asked for it. Before Lorena came over I put it on. Let me just say I’m glad I bought it. Like 3 girls that I saw this weekend were serenading me. Even the hardest of hobbyist will have their hearts melt when a hottie is serenading you to the song, “Cuando me miras asi”. Basically slow songs in Spanish. Check it out if you’re so inclined. All the girls liked it during my private time with them.

When I call the girls I’ll usually say something like:

Saint: Hola, amor. Vos puedes ayudarme? (Hi love. Are you able to help me?)

Girl from internet: Hola. Si. Claro que si. (Hi. Of course!)

Saint: Estoy buscando a mi amante. (I am looking for my lover).

Girl from Internet: She will be laughing….

This breaks the ice. I’ve learned that making a girl laugh is priceless. Of course I hope all you jokers don’t steal my line now. Ha,, ha. Just use your own creativity. Before you leave think of things to say and get it translated and then write it down and use it when you call them. As much as we all would like to think we are Prince Fricking Charming……we aren’t. Some of you think that we are doing the girls a huge favor and paying them a fortune to sleep with us. (Which is generally true). But everytime you do. Remember this…..if you were a girl how much would you pay to sleep with yourself???? I’m serious! Look in the mirror. These girls have some difficult work. Also, this is common sense but practice good hygiene! This shouldn't even need to be said but take a shower immediately before (and after if you're going back out). Do you want to sleep with a girl that didn't shower before seeing you?

Anyway…..I’ll post the rest later if I get a chance. I enjoy posting because it’s almost like a journal to me. My problem is my schedule is at a hectic pace now. I leave for Mexico next week. The following week I will return to Buenos Aires then to Rio then back to Buenos Aires. If I can convince myself the office can function with out me, I’m gonna take most of January off and stay in Buenos Aires.

A special thank you to Jackson who planned a wonderful dinner, UWPhoto and Kick Stand who were excellent partners to go out with and BS with, Mayri at www.argentinago.com, and all the rest of you that I bumped into. It was a fast but great couple of days. Oh yeah, a special thanks to the girls of Area-vip.com.ar Ha, ha. Damn I love those girls. You guys might want to note that almost all of them that I called answered their phones this trip. All but one were willing to deal. One of the girls wanted some crazy price like $200 US. She told me that she was a famous model in her country. I told her that I was a famous model in my country too. She just laughed. I think I could have negotiated but I didn’t need the attitude.

Guys, also something important. Yes, you can survive without spanish in BA but I'm 100% positive that you can have a better experience with it. Mine still sucks but it's good enough to hold conversations in taxi's, with chicas, etc. Kick Stand's experience can show you why speaking spanish can be better. I've NEVER had a girl do a no show on me. I always ask her if this is 100% sure and that my time is valuable just like her time is valuable.

I think Jackson's friend Roxanna was starting a seperate company to assist guys as almost their personal assistant. She could probably help with setting up appointments with girls. Sure, the hotels can probably help you but you want to be more discreet. She would be perfect for this! She could also make reservations for restaurants, etc. She can negotiate a fixed price for you and probably could be on call with a cellphone if you need help with things or translating. Her English is excellent. I met her and if she really was serious about doing this I'm sure it would be very good for her and for all you guys that don't speak Spanish. I'm sure she will post a message if she decides to do this. Whatever money you would be paying her you would be saving in the cost of the appointments and in no shows. Definitely two thumbs up!

More later.

Damn I'm tired but I wanted to finish before I went to bed. I've only been back a few hours and already talked to some friends on Instant Messenger and one of the amigas called my cellphone today! I miss BA already.

My final day one of my amigas called and asked if I wanted to have lunch with her. It was my last day but sure why not? Then she tells me how she was talking to Paola (whom I saw on an earlier trip...see trip report from May 2002) and Andrea were talking about their session with Kick Stand. They were telling her how he was ummm.... "well endowed". They also were saying how he was easy money and very easy. Those of you that know Kick Stand know that he is VERY laid back and easy going. Maybe too much so with the girls.

Guys don't be afraid to be a little agressive with the girls in telling them what you want to see. Also,it is very difficult if you don't speak any Spanish. So try to learn a few phrases before you go. Anyway, she is telling her amiga the story who just returned from Brazil. A girl from Brazil. She told me her friend wanted to meet Kick Stand based on his description alone.

I call Kick Stand and tell him the story. I ask if he wants to go to lunch with us. He is game. So we take a taxi to this one girl's apartment. Oh man. We were cracking up. My girl I know is a little loca but very very funny. She had Kick Stand and I laughing. His girl came out and she was really cute. Great tight body with nice breasts and a pretty face. The typical Brazil looking girl with lighter dark skin. She seemed nice.

We go to a nice restaurant in Puerto Madero. On the way the girls are telling us how Luciana (Kick Stand's girl) works at Black's. How she can drink like 25 drinks each and every night. Yikes! We get to the restaurant and the girls aren't eating much. We order a bottle of wine mainly for Luciana. She doesn't like it (so she says) but manages to drink about almost the entire bottle herself! I ask for a different bottle of wine since she "didn't like it". Of course the one she wants is 140 pesos a bottle. No problem.

She liked the second bottle. Kick Stand and I had one glass and she pretty much drank the rest of the bottle herself. I paid for the lunch. With tip it was a little pricey at 300 pesos with a very generous tip for 4 of us.

In the restaurant we're having a good time laughing and joking around. I thought Kick Stand was gonna have a blast. His girl was looking good in her tight jeans. She wanted a lot but we got it negotiated to 300 pesos for 2 hours. On the taxi ride back to the hotel things got kind of funny. Kick Stand is in the back with the two girls. Along this time I am thinking I want to see someone different on Area-Vip. I casually mention that maybe the two girls should have a session with Kick Stand and I'd go off alone. My girl asks if I don't want her? Ooops. She says that yes maybe she does want to do a 2 girl with Kick Stand. She tells me to call my girl from Black's..who she knows and HATES. So, guess what? She kept saying to call this girl. So I did. BIG mistake!

I'm calling her and asking if she can come over. Nope..it's sunday and she is with her son. But asks me to call her in 2 weeks when I'm there. She told me she wants to see my apartment. All of a sudden...my girl is reaching in the front seat and slapping the hell out of me. I was laughing. So was Kick Stand, his girl and the taxi driver was laughing so hard I thought we'd crash!

We get to the hotel. I was just gonna have my girl leave but ended up having like a 3 hour session with her. After about 2 hours I call Kick Stand's room to see how he is doing. Man oh man. This guy is jinxed. He tells me some crazy story how the girl took a shower then demanded her money. He gave her the 300 pesos and then demanded more! I thought he was joking! Nope. The girl was nutso. I guess she tried ripping him off. I felt so bad. My girl felt very, very very bad. She was pissed. She thought I was lying and asked to talk to Kick Stand. She calls Kick Stand's room and attempts to talk to him in English. Listening to her talk in English is funny as Kick Stand can attest to. Pure comedy.

Anyway, I end up going 2 more rounds. It's close to 7:15 PM and I was supposed to check out at 6 PM! I was gonna pay 1/2 a day rate to check out at 6 PM. At 6 PM i call downstairs and tell them I want to check out at 8 PM. The guy tells me I will have to pay a full day. Nothing I could do since I was buck naked and in no position to argue. It's 7:15 and I take a quick shower and change and I ask my amiga to pack all my clothes and stuff into my suitcase. I know this girl well and can totally trust her. I left out over 1000 pesos in my wallet while showering and it was all there when I came back. Plus I had another couple hundred pesos lying around all in the same place on the table.

As we were leaving she started to cry. I gave her money and she would NOT accept it. I kept giving it to her and she threw it on the bed. While she was in the bathroom I put 300 pesos in her purse. She called me today and was pissed and gave her money. I justified it wasn't for sex.

I was worried because one of the normal non-working chicas that I met on a previous trip called and wanted to do dinner. I couldn't since every night I was busy. The only time I could meet was on the way to the airport and I told her she could wait at the airport with me. She didn't get off work till 7 PM. I told her I'd wait and if she showed up before I checked out I'd have my driver take her to the airport and then pick her back up. I waited till like 7:45 PM and she wasn't there so I had to leave. I hope she isn't mad.

I checked out of the Design Suites. I gave the guy a 100 peso bill to share with all the other guys who were always great. My driver was waiting for me. Same guy as always, Sergio with the Mercedes Benz. I always book through the agency. I think you can call him directly but if you book with the agency they charge a lot more if you specifically request the Mercedes. I never do but he knows my name and always picks me up. I always leave him a very good tip and I think that is why. It was like 56 pesos or something. I gave him 55 pesos + $10 US (aprx. 36 pesos) for tip.

When I arrived at the airport I ran into two dudes from the board. We had a few drinks and I ate a huge Empanada. I picked up the check. I'm not sure how much it was (I think like 45 pesos) but I gave the guy $5 US for tip. I know the tipping can add up but sometimes I like making people's day. I also think it makes it easier for other Americans. If you can help it at all...try to tip at least a little. I noticed some guys paid their bills at the clubs and didn't tip the waitresses anything. To me this isn't cool. These girls work their asses off.

I ran into Superjeff..another dude I met on another trip. I'm not sure if he is on this board or not. Great guy. He happened to be sitting in the same row as me. Before the plane boarded we were swapping stories. The guy in between us was quite interested in hearing all about BA (he just had a few hours layover from Chile). Then Jeff whips out his digital camera. They guy was the one controlling the camera from shot to shot! It was hilarious!!!

Sometimes I ask myself what I did to deserve the life I live. When I get back today, Mayri tells me that one of the girls we went to dinner with that night liked talking to me and thought I was cute. I thought the same of her. Like I said...GFM (girlfriend material). I end up talking to the girl today in my office and I have a date with her when I return!!! Once I live in Buenos Aires at least part-time..I'll probably slow down the late nights every night and do more normal stuff. I'm looking forward to going back.

I know that probably many of you that read this board will never go to BA. I hope you can live vicariously through my (and other dudes) posts.

Life is good.

Enjoy the life.

No Moondog will have to say something else.

Sounds like he is.

Godfather,

Thumbs up on Lorena! Salome looks pretty good too, but she's hiding a little belly fat. Thanks for the quality pics.

Yeah, Lorena was a cutie. Salome was cute too. She looked better the first night. Incredible in bed. Yeah, she had some belly fat but not too much. She will probably be a bigger girl as she gets older but I live for today baby...ha, ha.

Extremely nice girl. All the girls I saw were nice. I had a great time with them all. I was disappointed the most with the looks of Acuzena of Area-VIP but she was a good session. She wanted to go more rounds but I needed my energy. Saw her on my first day. I emailed her picture to Hombre but it's not up yet...

Salome looks good, when a chick bends over there usually is a little accumulation of fat around the belly button. I don't think she's fat at all.

Salome #5 added above, here is Acuzena of Area-VIP

Photo: Acuzena 01

DJ-You'll have to forgive me. I thought Salome was attractive, but I'm still used to being in hypercritical Brazil mode when looking at women. I'm used to looking at lots of tight toned bodies in bikinis where any fat on the belly or ass sticks out. I'll be the first to admit that I've found the ones slightly overweight can give me a better session sometimes, and I did a few that were 5-10 lbs overweight on my latest trip with great results.

I prefer the slender girls too but my problem is I'm a breast man. I prefer girls with bigger breasts (and natural is better). With those kind of girls you're gonna get a tendency of a little extra baggage. All the girls but one girl this trip was all natural girls.

I think Hombre added the wrong picture of Salome #5 and Acuzena. Acuzena from area-vip had a pretty face and pretty eyes but she looked kind of tired that day. (then again...I probably did too).

We can all be critical of the girls because we're paying them. But like I said in my post. If you were a girl....how much would you have to pay yourself to have sex with what you see in the mirror. Ha, ha. We are not all Price Charming. That being said.....Have a great holidays all.

Both links fixed, typo errors.

Hombrecito, it's all good. Ok, so you have a higher standard when it comes to Brazillian women. Umm, do you go to TJ 8-) ?

Dick(Asian sex hound)

DJ-Never been to TJ, but I've been told by some vets I would be disappointed.

I bet. Now I need to get to BA. I've been to Asia mostly. Just came back from a 4mth $30K trip.

P.S. I'm hoping to close on my 2nd apartment in Buenos Aires by this weekend. I was in this building looking at apartments! Holy sh*t it was amazing. Marble and mohogany entry with 3 separate elevators. The building has a 24/7 doorman with secured entrance, a pool and barbaque pit on the roof, a full gym, a sauna, plus a full size room that tenants can use for parties. I'll probably rent it out for longer term rentals. It won't be cheap but still cheaper than the hotels and more privacy.

I loved this building! It's in Recoleta about 3 blocks from the Alvear Palace and Black's and right around the corner from my other apartment.

I am hoping to retire to BA in next 3-4 months, can you advise who you are using for real esate agent. I see alot of deals on the net and know there are more locally (I saw many for rent signs on apts. while in BA)...tough to bring that much cash (logistics only) and I don't want to open a BA bank account...could it be put on a credit card

Thomaso:

Renting an apartment as Godfather did and "retiring" in BA are two different things. Being a tourist in BA is not the same as "living" there.

Also, it will be very hard to do normal business without a bank account, unless you use your American credit card (with the risk of being lost or stolen and thus losing your only source of money) and come back to the US from time to time. This year, the government set stiff restrictions for foreign exchange transactions, so don't count on wire transfers that will arrive in Dollars to your hands in a few days. Except for American Express cards, no VISA or Mastercard is issued independently, so you will need a local bank account to have a local credit card. 5 years ago, in order to open a checking account, I was required the last 3 local IRS (AFIP) statements or the last 6 months stubs from the employer, and proper ID.

I never rented in BA (I own my place there) but have dozens of friends who rent. Usually, the landlord collects the rent in person, neither taking checks nor debiting your credit card (never heard about debiting a card for the monthly rent). When writing the contract, they will ask for a cosigner or warrantor, legal IDs for renting (a National Document of Identity may be required), and other verifiable info. It is VERY difficult to evict a delinquent tenant (it adds pressure to the government by growing the number of the homeless) usually taking 2 years for the whole legal process, so landlords try to check as much personal info as possible before handing the keys to tenants.

My advice: If you really want to retire there, go to an affordable apart hotel and rent a room for 3-4 months. Take advantage of that time to research the real estate market and to start asking for the proper documentation. Believe me: A single paper may take months swimming in seas of bureaucracy.

This way, if things go wrong (or if you get tired of the city, which can happen to anybody), you just spent a great vacation and gained a lot of experience about how to deal in a Third-World country if expecting to retire in warmer climates.

Hope this helps,

Andres

I'm jealous. I wish I was retiring there in next 3-4 months. I'd recommend the real estate agent I used. Ezy referred me to her. I'd rather not post her name on a public forum. Just email me at dallasynot@hotmail.com and I'll email you her phone number. Tons of apartments for rent but again it's not as easy as it appears.

Unless you are paying for 1-2 years ahead of time in cash upfront you won't be able to rent. Even then many won't let you without an immobilario (person in Buenos Aires that owns property that will co-sign for you). Good luck finding one of these people to vouch for you. Impossible.

Cash is king. Don't even try to mention credit cards for real estate deals there. They want US Dollars or pesos. You can bring up to $10,000 US without any problems. Yeah, you might not like traveling with that much dough but just keep it on your carry-on bag. No one knows you have that much except you. Immediately upon getting to your hotel..put it on your safe. $10,000 in $100 bills is not that heavy....trust me I know. ha, ha.

The other thing you can do is be creative. You'll have no problems withdrawing money with ATM cards. Most have more than one account. Before you leave the USA, just tell them you want to increase your daily withdrawal limit. Tell them you are going to Buenos Aires and will be withdrawing massive amounts of cash so they don't think it's fraud.

Also, even accounts like Paypal.com will allow you to get an ATM card. You can get a free debit card that will allow you to withdraw up to $400 US a day everyday (or charge $3000 a day). It's a mastercard debit card. They charge $1 per withdrawal.

The key thing is finding an owner that will let you rent without a co-signer. Once that is accomplished you're in like Flynn. If you're gonna live there you might want to open a local account. I would NOT keep tons of cash in it but it's good to establish a relationship with a local branch of a bank in any city you live in. I plan on opening a savings account at the Citibank in Recoleta. I'll keep everyone posted how that goes.

It's cool to talk to guys that are getting apartments in Buenos Aires. Especially in Recoleta. I look forward to having some of you (like Ezy and UWPhoto) for neighbors.

Godfather

Andres and Godfather: Thanks for the info. Sorry guys but years in civil service (not the highest paying work) and a pending disability application help me to possibly retire at 50 and hope for a good ten years of travel. My hope is to rent in BA so I always have a place to park for months at a time. I found BA to be very much like NY city but with a definite cost savings (currently). I realize that the economy won't always be so depressed (hell - a year ago I would not go cause trips could run thousands) and wouldn't want to lose 70 percent of any bank account to gov't decrees. That really ruins retirment - sort of an official Enron. The current prices for owning an apartment or condo in BA look very attractive, considering the spike in Costa Rica costs as a result of the influx over the past two years - $200,000 condos, expensive newer houses. What I don't like about CR / San Jose is there doesn't seem to be any nice apts. downtown like in a large city where one can rent. But I do have a bank account there for emergencies. I have more confidence in there system at this time. BA seemed to fit the bill of being able to return to my city boy roots at an affordable price.

Thanks for the info. Godfather: e-mail on the way.

Thomas....you can email me as well... unpocolocoenba@hotmail.com I talk with my realtor several times per week by phone and I can set you up with a good lawyer if you like. She will help you with negotiations and the contract for a reasonable fee ( $100USD)....

Godfather

What the hell do you do for a living? I also work Latin America, but mostly Central America. But, damn, I sure must not make the money you do. Need an assistant that speaks spanish, has worked some in Argentina, and spent years running around CenAm, Mexico, Colombia and elsewhere?

I am so envious of your postings.

monaghan

Monaghan,

Ha, ha. Yeah, I have a good life. I'm not complaining. It's especially nice since NONE of these international trips are for business. I do 0% international travel for work. All these vacations around the world are pleasure trips. I'm a senior level marketing executive here in the USA.

I work really hard but I play really hard too. Good luck.

Godfather I will be in BA for the first time Dec 18 to Dec 27. Do you have any advise do's and don’ts. Also, do you know of any scams or ladies to stay away from. Which do you think would be a must see. Any help is appreciated.

GREAT POST.

Hobbyinhouston

Hobbyinhouston,

See my report on Buenos Aires posted here on CH for the above information.

Moondog

Hobbyinhouston,

Moondog is 100% correct. I'm NO BA expert. I've been there several times this year but I'm still learning like everyone else. I'd consider guys like Moondog, Ezy and UWPhoto the top authority on Buenos Aires. It is those gentlemen that deserve the credit for getting so many guys to discover the splendors of Buenos Aires.

Read Moondog's "bible" on Buenos Aires. It really tells you everything you would need to know along with all the location of the clubs.

Don't worry so much and overplan. You'll have a great time. If you want to meet up and go out to the clubs you can email me here on the board. I'm gonna be down there much of the same time as you (December 20 - December 26). Then I fly to Rio. I hope to hook up with you.

In the past few months as a fallout of the economy, many more chicas have taken up on part-time free-lancing - specially evenings and weekends. These are new lasses and less astute in the hardcore bargain or time-keeping.

Hobbyinhouston,

One more thing. BA will be absolutely dead as far as the clubs and Cafe Orleans goes after about December 23rd/24th, until about January 6th. Then it will stay at a minuimum pace until about the end of March.

So if you want a girl after December 24th, it is best to have one lined up and stay with her, because the rest will be out of town with their families.

Moondog

Citydude:

Where did you spot the part-time free-lancing action? Discos, restaurants, coffee shops? Any particular area of the city (Downtown, Palermo, Barrio Norte, Belgrano)?

Andres

Oh yeah..if picking up normal girls is your thing and you can play the 'game' then do simple common sense things. I prefer the pay to play girls right now. It is SOOOOO easy to meet normal girls though. I'm not saying if you're 68 and a girl is 24 that you're gonna score a novia. Same things apply in BA as they do in the USA. BUT if a girl finds you charming then you can easily do things.

Here are some things I do while down there. Not to score with girls but just because I grew up where manners were very important. I was reared most of my youth in private exclusive schools where manners were just a way of life.

If you're at a restaurant and you see a girl sitting down pull out the chair for her. If a girl at another table drops her napkin.. reach over and pick it up for her. If you honestly like the perfume a girl is wearing ask her what the name of it is. Constantly tell people "buenos dias" Buenas noches, buenas tardes, etc. Just the little things in life make a difference. Not just with the chicas but in everything you do in life. Part of the reason I think I've been so successful in my life is by following that simple creed that the little things make the difference.

Recoleta is a relatively small area generally speaking. I see the same people trip after trip and they remember me. People in the casa de cambios, restaurants, stores, cafe's, newspaper stands, kids begging for change. One thing that amazed me is that my first trip one night at that outdoor cafe across the street from La Biela restaurant, I saw this gorgeous girl sitting with an ugly girl. I was with my best friend. We were waiting till midnight for Black's to get busier. Anyway, I told our waiter that I wanted to pay for the girls drinks. They were sipping on cappachinos and some nibbling on desserts. I just waved at them and we left.

This trip the ugly girl came up to me while I was sitting at La Biela restaurant! She remembered me and asked if I was the one that bought her and her friend a drink back in May. I was amazed she remembered me.

Just made a VERY simple webpage with some pictures of my apartment. Like I said, I'm not going to rent it to just any Tom, Dick, or Harry. Honestly I don't need the money or the aggrevation. Only DISCREET gentlemen will be considered.

Andres: This new information has been expressed by a couple of locals. Take it for what it is worth.

My apartment website is finally up. Here is the link to the webpage.

www.apartmentsba.net

I just bought part of a travel agency there so I'm happy to help you guys find great hotels and apartments. I can set up airport pick up, cellphone rental and a whole lot more.

My company is www.argentinago.com Feel free to email me at mikeargentinago@yahoo.com We just opened an office just outside of Recoleta in the Microcentro. Soon we plan to offer free high speed internet access for our clients to check their emails. Also, we'll soon offer free calls to the USA and Canada for our customers.

I'm also looking into buying some apartments there to rent out. I already have arranged some good deals with people I know that own apartments. Those that know me know that I'm an honest and ethical guy that always is willing to help you guys.

Can you provide garotas, ip telephony, and laptop internet hookup on demand on the apartments also.

Also, do you know any good Baptist ministers from the Dallas / Fort Worth area that have settled in BA that can help us when we feel guilty?
