Import/export related business. This is true but it has nothing to do with most of the countries i'm in. I only tell long term girls this but I always keep my business details vague.

Copper and minerals industry. This worked in China pretty well and explains travel. You can rattle off mining stocks and make them stop shit testing.

Oil platform engineer. Lots of expats are legit oil men and work rotations so this is an easy one.

Scuba Pro or marine biologist. If you go with the scuba pro story just tell them you are a partner in a large scuba business or an instructor. I know enough about ocean life to fake marine biologist for the more academic or environment orientated women.. Easy story when i'm traveling with a full set of gear. Plus I have a shitload of cool underwater videos to show them...in my room and on my bed of course.

Developer/Real estate analyst. Easy to explain travel.

Thanks for the ideas Smile I will research the "Real estate analyst" thing... Idea

About the "marine biologist" thing, it has been used already in some movies, in a Bond movie in particular :

Naomi: "You are on holiday here?"
James Bond - El Chinito loco: "Where there is an ocean, a marine biologist is never on holiday."

Hah, didn't know that. Which JB movie was it in?

What makes it believable is all the footage and the gear. It's definitely not your run of the mill story.

Plus from a place of self amusement telling girls i'm a scientist before I bang them is hilarious.

RE: Travel with a good Cover Story or fail
Beyond just accessing non American women, I love to travel. So, I always have an interest in places I visit beyond sex. I just give my tourist reason for being in a place. The only time this has raised suspicions was when I spent a week in Makati "on my way to go surfing in Siargao" but even then it didn't cause any problems.

Yes, it varies, as such:

- Western Europe: I am a software developer.
- EE: I own a model agency.
- South East Asia: I am a MI6 operative.
- rest of Asia: I am a FSB operative.
- Africa: I am a Mossad operative
- Middle East (Sunni countries): I am a Mukhabarat operative.
- Middle East (Shia countries): I am a SAVAK operative.
- Latin America: I am a Swiss banker.
- Zannesville: I own a brewery.

I'm not a fan of the real estate angle for this. It works, but you'd have to do research before going there in case you run into real estate chicks.

Now it's "I have business clients and I have meetings with them." Simple.

One response that I may test out the next time I head out of country:

"I'm trying to find a new place to live where I feel that I fit in and can find good financial and social opportunities. This may be the city." And then of course you bounce a couple days later...hehehe

Not only does it give you an excuse to stay in a hotel, but it forces her to try extra hard to keep you around if she likes you.

The marine biologist as panty dropper is an old trope. It was in Seinfeld.
Why is it sexy but just plain "biologist" doesn't rate?

Just one of those things I wonder about.

Bumping this thread up

I'm currently on dating sites for Kiev. My back story is that I live in Kiev. Work online in IT. These women are hound dogs asking 100 questions and studying my profile. I'm kinda struggling.

Any advice?

RE: Travel with a good Cover Story or fail
While I was in Italy for a month I would just say that I was searching for an apartment to buy

I don't think the girls believed me though, at 24 (people say I look younger than that quite often), it's hard to believe that someone has that much money at a "fresh out of college" age

it was actually true though, I was looking for a plot of land to buy, but apparently the IRS has made it extremely difficult for Americans to get mortgages much less do banking overseas...

Work online in IT: bad cover. Low-prestige job, also implying you do geek work, relatively badly-paid myopic slave-work, writing obscure lines of code for a living (no James Bond stuff, you'll agree). The word "IT" turns off all women worldwide. IT was good 15 years ago. But now, if you are a female, do you want to get fucked by a 1500 usd/month IT geek, or by a 5000 usd/month marine biologist, or real-estate professional?

Working in IT/software does not have the same stink everywhere. In poorer economies, a foreigner who works remotely for an international company, gets paid in dollars, sets their own schedule, etc., is not low status compared to what most of the locals can offer.

A short, respectful speech like "I'm fortunate to be able to work remotely and live where I choose, and [this place] is somewhere I've always been curious about ... the culture ... the food ... the history." Being able to speak the language and say something positive, sincere and knowledgeable about the people also sets you apart.

For many years, my actual job was maintaining a software application remotely. It could just as easily have been websites. Not a single person ever asked for details. Even if this had not been my actual situation, it could have been a good cover story if the goal was just to explain my presence and avoid looking like a sex tourist.

RE: Travel with a good Cover Story or fail
I don't get the problem.

I've encountered a thousand obstacles to bang foreign women, but this was never one of them.

If you are there short term: job interview.

If you stay there for 3 months... you are there for a 3 month contract? every mid sized city in the world has offices from international corporations who hire consultants for 3-6 months, from guys in their mid 20s to senior guys in their 50s. This works for software guys, engineers, marketing guys, anyone.

Actually, even if I was staying there for 6 months, I would tell every new girl that this was my first week. Gives excuses and you can get away with more crap.

But even in places overun with sex tourists like the Phi, usually I just say " this is my favorite place to scuba dive" or whatever bullshit and that's it. In eastern Europe you can say you work in Switzerland and are there for a short vacation. Couldn't be simpler.

RE: Travel with a good Cover Story or fail
I have used the Citibank line in the Philippines to good avail. I don't recommend the real estate line - in the nicer areas, there is so much real estate development that you'll find yourself having to sit through a pitch.

Where there's no Citibank, I've said I'm a pilot or work for Google (I'll give you a free gmail account just like me).

If you go the corporate route, your hotel should be to a similar standard. If I'm using AirBNB or at a lower end place, I'll say that I'm working in a nearby city but taking a few days off to explore my present location.

Development, yea, but I just say (if they ask me), that I'm looking to buy an existing building. Never had an issues or further probing.
