RE: Cali vs Barranquilla
Jarocho, no disrespect, but have you actually been to Cali?
As a gringo with NO Spanish skills, and no social value locally you are badged a sex tourist by 90% of HOT women.
Granted you can always fuck the poor barrio girls, prepagos and gold-diggers that have you spend $$$, who are AVERAGE looking at best, but that's as far as you go!
Maybe it's just me, but if I am going to travel and spend money, I want to bang the cream of the crop that would require 10x mire effort to bang at home! The OP mentioned he specifically wanted hot women with hot asses; Cali delivers for sure, but I doubt he just wants to see these women and actually fuck many of them.
Learning Salsa is a good move, but guess what? I'm an expert Salsa Dancer, and I STILL must break through night-game with 90% closed sets with mixed groups only IN SPANISH!
Not to mention that women in Salsa venues DO NOT want to dance with someone who is learning; they want someone who looks great dancing to make THEM look good in front if their friends.
You speak fluent Spanish at least, add to this a language barrier and Cali is NOT the best option for a Colombia noobie.

Mixx, been to Cali twice and considering moving to it or near it (maybe as close as Armenia as that the weather is not as hot).
Let me put it this way, if he decides to come to Cali, I will volunteer my services to help with his Spanish on a weekend or two (although I have a feeling he would prefer a hot Caleña instructor).
Having the balls to come down with nearly no Spanish gains my respect.

Without listing all the reasons I'm thinking Cali, one of them is because I read in this forum that they have lots of hot women with big asses. And I am def an ass man. But...
Mixx recommends Barranquilla if you don't speak great spanish because the girls are more friendly and they'll be more forgiving.
But I heard that Baq has a larger mestizo population. I'm sure they have beautiful women, but what about the ASSets??
If anyone wants to add more things that I should consider, feel free.
2 centavos for what its worth. I'm no expert at "all things Colombia" but I understand you want to go to cali to learn Spanish and dance Salsa. I hope you understand that people in Cali don't really give a shit about you learning Spanish or salsa unless you're paying in which case you're likely to get fleeced. THese girls who think as themselves as the queens of salsa would not dare try to dance with you unless you're a "pasofino" or have serious command of the language and it's idioms . This is too much to bite off in my opinion if this is your first time ,and if you just want to see and fuck some big asses.
Barranquilla for you is not good, because they like to dance too and it can be a sleepy town my friend. Not as much watering holes as you may have read for easy action. They are friendlier, but fuck a friendship when you are not getting laid.
Try Cartagena. Its more expensive, but the trade off is that the girls are a bit more accepting of someone who doesn't speak Spanish and would probably find it sort of cute that you are trying. More of these girls would be able to speak a little English with you as well. I don't think you have to be a Pasofino and have every Salsa step memorized since a lot of them enjoy trance, techno, and this kind of shit. You will find a variety of women there with big asses and you will see girls from Barranquilla , Cali, Medellin, and other surrounding areas so you can have the best of both worlds.. If this sounds like your kind of place, rework the budget since it can get kind of expensive . I don't know you could be a millionaire but I would still adjust the budget. Try no to go in high season as the they will sniff you out real quick.

RE: Cali vs Barranquilla
There you have it Tbone! I hooked you up with a FREE Spanish/Salsa instructor to do all of the grunt work for you!
Jarocho, not sure what viewpoint you are looking at this from, but suggesting that one weekend or two of crash course Spanish is enough to tackle Caleñas who will look to get paid by this guy as Pusscrook described is laughable man!
Maybe you see something I don't, but doubt it as You've only been to Cali twice; I lived there for a few years and was engaged to one for 3 years!
Don't be too impressed Jarocho by men going abroad with no language skills, That's just how international players roll G! I went to Slovenia, and I did not have so much as 1 single data sheet from this forum as nobody had any intel to provide.
Pusscrook has a VERY VALID outlook too.
Btw, saying you are moving close to Cali by choosing Armenia is puzzling; Armenia is
nowhere near Cali. It's like saying I'm moving to Miami, by buying a house in Orlando.
You are very new here, so careful you don't oversell a city you are not TRULY an expert in and set someone up for failure inadvertently.
It's obvious you are trying to help, I can see that, but just really know before you recommend is all
I'm saying. Two trips to Cali is barely scratching
the surface young player.

RE: Cali vs Barranquilla
Jarocho, thanks alot for the offer man and if I choose Cali I'm gonna send you a pm.
Mixx, pusscrook, dash, thanks for the comments brothas. Dash, since you say Barranquilla has some ass I'm more intrigued about it lol.
I guess I should also mention that I am black, but I have light skin (which I mention because I know skin color matters in Colombia). If you guys think one of those cities is more favorable for me considering that, let me know.
I have thought about Cartagena, but certain things that I have read here have turned me off a little bit. Here's a sample post:
/thread-5427-p...l#pid72184
I will probably make a trip to Cali anyway but doubt if I stay. I have a couple of females that I met online who want to meet me. So I'll go and have some fun with them and experience the city a little bit.
Then I can try Cartagena and Baq. If I don't like one, it's not like I'm tied there. I can just bounce to the other.

Pretty much if you go to the mall or club you will see more than enough women with phat asses. So I wouldnt let that factor into my equation.
Being foreign / american can help offset your skin color. Just dress nice and have some personal style & swagg and you should find some suitors. But if I had to guess your skin color would be more favorable to you in Cali and Cartagena.

Thanks again. My light skin tone sort of blends me in with the lighter skin locals, who I am the same color as or just 1 to 2 shades darker.
So I suppose I lose the "exotic" factor without white skin and blue eyes. But yea... my looks, along with the right clothes and being american will count for something.
I did get a decent amount of attention when I was out and about in bogota and bucaramanga recently.
