RE: Make Love To Bogota
^Yup there's a few of those shops around now, they learn their barbering skills in prison then open shops in Bogota. My friend Luis from NYC just opened a new shop called "Liberty Barber Shop" its at Carrera 14 A. #59-57, one block west of Caracas, head west on calle 60 though because the other side streets south are full of crack heads. If any of you need a good hair cut check it out, he's a very cool guy and can hook you up with whatever you need, I took him with me to get my custom suits made for example to make sure nothing was lost in translation. He can link you up with other bilingual guys if you want locals to go party in the somewhat dodgy areas of Bogota (Primero de Mayo, Santa Fe, etc), just buy them a few beers and pay for their taxi, money well spent.
God damned them all, I was told we'd cruise the seas for American gold, we'd fire no guns-shed no tears, now I'm a broken man on a Halifax pier, the last of Barrett's privateers!

RE: Make Love To Bogota
They were 350.000 pesos each if I remember correctly, that was three years ago so may be a bit more now, I had the highest quality Chilean wool but there are cheaper fabrics to choose from. They say that Bogota is an excellent place to have suits made because its a colder climate as opposed to having one made somewhere like Thailand or Vietnam where they may not have fabrics that are good for cold weather. I went to Guillermo Ortiz in centro ( http://vgo.com.co/), he was recommended by a friend, my suits were well done and Linux had some really great ones made there. My advice is to really know exactly what you're looking for as far as the tailoring of your suit goes, if you want stylish cuts, then do some research online before.

I paid around 750.000 COP per suit last summer. One was a bit more, one a bit less, depending on the fabric. Gringo price? Maybe, I don't really care, as I am very happy with the quality and style.
A shirt was 120.000 COP, also very happy with the cut and quality.
If the guy with the mustache asks, how you know about his shop, tell him from the internet. He will be really surprised

RE: Make Love To Bogota
Mr Remi, you're right the price is around 700,000, I got confused and though it was 350.000, I think 700.000 was about $350 back then, that's what tripped me up, the exchange rate is much better now. I think it took about 4-5 days for my two suits and three dress shirts to be made.

RE: Make Love To Bogota
Date 13 with LMR girl, back to town after NYE, no LMR this time, sex + Simpsons in Spanish + Arepas that she cooked. I'm falling in love.
My sex drive is quite low since starting Nofap or because I have 1 new girl every other day hm, I'm sick but will have a girl over tonight before heading to gringo Tuesday.
Went to the Existos yesterday at peak hour to see the quality overall, quite disatisfied  ...

RE: Make Love To Bogota
Sweet dates, no new girl for the moment, I can't find my type of girls in Chapinero  , done my first daygame approach in Bogota, the number is not solid though, whatever.
Any tips about daygame or nightgame where girls have huge racks  ?
Soon I will have 5 days for only gaming and going out so I will need a plan.
Is it a good idea to go out with a girl you fuck to meet other people in the neighbourhood (social circle) or that can create drama?

First one was 25, second 21, third 31 and New Year's present was 22-23 (her birthday was on the 1st of january ).
Every time that I go for 18, I find them flaky and immature so my range is 20-30.
My screening is 1.How hot, 2.How cool, 3.How much effort.
I had other beauties asking me to travel 40 min to meet them, hmm thanks but not for the moment.
Now I'm going to slow down, find a good cheap gym(with hot girls ), get some work done and discover more of Bogota maybe daygame Zona T but more attracted to the malls.
Chapinero seems chaotic for daygame.
All the girls that I slept with were girlfriend material which is great.
Will see Gringo Tuesday when the talent comes back from holidays.
For pipelining, I start older to calibrate then get to the 18-22.
Bruh, if you met her on CC, LAC, or Tinder in Bogota - she probably not girlfriend material. With online girls in Bogota (as many on this forum have found out firsthand) - sharing is caring.
Not hating on your chicks - just fyi...
PS: check out manager gym
Great advice, good gym and cheap although there are not a lot of hot girls  .
Going to hit la Zona T to see if it's daygame potential, it seems more fun than supermercado game  .

They made reservations at a restraunt above Lleras, (decent place) upon entering we all were amazed at the gringo hipster invasion. Dudes in t-shirts, shorts, trucker caps, and loud mouthed gringas and euro travelers. It was interesting hearing our dates perspectives on these travelers and them asking us "why they want to look dirty" and "look poor". My friend and I both were shocked at the amount of thirsty looking dudes in Lleras, maybe it's just an influx of holiday travelers coupled with the exodus of local Paisas to the coast or other destinations but it was amazing. As we walked around Lleras after dinner we played a game with the girls to count how many foreigner stared up and down at them. Don't get me wrong I think Medellin is a great city and this is only one small pocket but I have not ever experienced this in Bogota, a restraunt where foreigners out number Colombians and the condensed amount of backpacker hipsters in one spot.....Scotian I will send you a PM
Sloppily dressed young hipster foreigners is literally a step up from the status quo of middle aged coke abusing hooker mongers. Even back in '09-'11 places like Lleras had its moments of relatively high foreigner presence, at least by Colombia standards. There are multiple hostels a few blocks from Lleras and they often move in large packs that can take over a restaurant or bar and throw off your gringo saturation radar.
Foreigners aren't ever going to flock to Bogota for long term stays or retirement because the nice areas aren't that cheap and the weather/aesthetics aren't as good as other cities. They're not exactly unicorns in Bogota though, especially in places like Zona Rosa. A lot of gringos are there for a few days since its a travel hub. If you posted up in a cheap restaurant near some hostels in Candeleria you'd probably experience a similar situation on occasion.

Going to hit up some bars around my place in Chapinero where there are supposed to be people talking english.
