Finally in Medellín, but feeling lonely

I´ve just Left my girlfriend in Chile to come here and I´m naturally feeling lonely in a strange new place. Anyone around?

Hopefully I´ll be off looking for English teaching work tomorrow. If anyone has any ideas/hints or tips where to look that´d also be great.

max...........i was down on the board walk in venice years ago and i think it was a sunday.....as usual, up comes swami X with his soap box, robes, long hair and beard. as he mounts his soapbox and starts to deliver his reliably sterling sermon, the crowd gathers.......

unlike his usual prompt oratory, swami was silent, gazing at the gathering crowd...then finally, in an unusually soft voice, he said, "look at all of you out there.....you all think sex is the answer."

"it's not the answer, it's the question...the answer's 'yes'. "

what a great name... sirwhale. In case you don't understand what EliColombia wrote, basically she's offering a way to contact the coordinator of a program designed to make Medellin bilingual, and the other link is things to do in Medellin, both well worth a look.

Feeling bored => go exploring
Feeling lonely => asking approval if it's OK to be with a puta?

Given that you've just come from Chile where some of earth's ugliest citizens live - it's OK I think.

Thanks for the help guys, especially Eli. My girlfriend was Chilean so my spanish is good, although im having to get used to this new accent. Leaving a loved one behind is difficult, especially when you´re far from friends and family. Oh and yea i´d say the majority of Chilenas aren´t the best, but there are some stunners, and thats including my ´´polola´´ ;)

I´m looking up all the schools now in the yellow pages, there seems to be millions for a small city. Google maps isn´t giving me much confidence either.

Small City?

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Let's analize this :

1) "Medellin is not synonymous with sex tourism i hope"
Answer : No, just like Rio, tourist come here for the wonderful beach. "I love Medellin beach !"(prashe overheard from non sex tourist) and also, "Let's go to Medellin Mansion ! I came to Medellin to "only look" at this place !" and who cant forget the most used prhase : " Life's a beach !" (can be used anywere, not only in Medellin)

2) "he's just lonely and wants stuff to do. why does it have to be sex?""
Answer : Usually, when you have sex, there is more of one person involved in this (sometimes 3 or more!), so you will be NOT lonley and you will have : the "talking" part, (you are talking with someone, so you are not lonely anymore) the "fun" part, (stuff to do AND with someone!) and the "end" part (stuff to do like taking a shower, maybe with your partner/s)

As you can see, SEX its the answer ! I am shocked that even you didnt know it !

sir whale........eafit is probably the best bet....and if you're not 'wed' to medallo, the llanogrande campus is BY FAR the best bet. it's quiet, beautiful, lacking all the bullshit and comeons that one has to deal with in medellin. go up, see for yourself.

up the hill, you'll discover a completely different class of people.

you can pm me for detailed info on the area.

There are beautiful womens in every Latin country including Chile. Nevertheless, for pure striking beauty the Colombian womens my just very well be the most beautiful on the planet? Me thinks it is the mix of blood, the food, and the climate.
