Lesson Number 1: Any advice your given means nothing. Simply keep your money clip stacked when you take it out to pay a bill. Smile often. Keep your head up. Tip big. Wear nice clothes and use a good cologne.

And if that doesnt work.... call me up. I'll get you some amiguitas to help you in that department. jajaj

I found out that a weekly bath and occasionally degreasing my Overalls helps git the ladies.

maybe a quick trip to the tanner will help too ,so your magestic white beer belly wont blind them at the beach

1. Have money in your pocket and spend it all on the ladies.
2. That's pretty much all you need.

Yup...money and fiance visa...HA HA!

Robert Jorge says on Apr 14, 2008, 09:56:

The socks and sandals are actually like a mating call, but for long distances. A Colombiana might spot you from a hundred meters away - or further. She might not realize from that distance that you are a gringo; unless you are dancing of course. But with the socks and sandals, or shiny new, white tennis shoes, that will confirm to the interested Colombiana that you are indeed gringo and thus eligible for courtship.

morphus says on Apr 14, 2008, 09:59:

Ectomorphs are the best dancers. I'm a big boned mesomorph so don't expect much dancing from me.

What I have, I do not want to lose, but Where I am I do not want to stay, but those I love, I do not want to leave, but those I know I no longer want to see, but Where I die, I do not want to go;I want to stay where I have never been

Lauthra says on Apr 14, 2008, 12:42:

Just the fact that you're pasty white will get you noticed. The salsa and vallenato skills will get you noticed... not necessarily in a good way, unless you can actually do it properly...

Arthur, stop posting pics of my money and pretending it's yours!

Nato (='.'=)

arthur brode says on Apr 14, 2008, 12:51:

ok lauthra,
so when are you comming over for your $

http://www.calirentals.net/

dwr says on Apr 14, 2008, 12:52:

1. Gringos who fart out loud are always a big turn off.
2. Apparently cutting your toe nails out in the open is not good.
3. Watch the walk. Colombianas hate the gringo saunter.
4. Shorts in Bogota are a no no.
5. Apparently having an opinion different from a Colombian woman is called Hablando Bobadas.
6. Don't get caught doing the Colombian wipe and disposal in the waste can.
7. Be clean. Very Clean. Colombianas like clean!

Doesn't #7 apply everywhere in the world? =D

Arthur voy a Cali hasta Julio (waaaah), make sure to add all my interest to the pile :P Can't wait to go to La Cevichería Fanny en La Galería. *Sits back and waits for the Fanny jokes.*


dwr, sandals in Bogotá is another NO NO!

jonas says on Apr 14, 2008, 13:57:

arthur, but you know what a fanny is?

What I have, I do not want to lose, but Where I am I do not want to stay, but those I love, I do not want to leave, but those I know I no longer want to see, but Where I die, I do not want to go;I want to stay where I have never been

Lauthra says on Apr 14, 2008, 14:02:

Really, is it really the one you go to? I've been going to her since I was like 5, it used to be a stand in the street. I have NEVER had ceviche from anywhere else in Cali.

arthur brode says on Apr 14, 2008, 14:18:

yeah,it is.
what a coincidence.

miamimike says on Apr 14, 2008, 15:17:

As Utopia Cowboy used to also advise, make sure you have a Fresh Ben Franklin $100 Bill taped to your Forehead, works wonder with the Colombianas,,,LOL In the rare event this doesn't work, Tie that little Dollar Bill tree to your Backpack(all gringos have such a tree in their backyard right?) and just give 'er a shake in front of your chosen one, if this isn't a colombian Chick magnet and it fails you, you are a lost cause. Head to the airport back to the USA.,,,you cannot be helped LOL

arthur brode says on Apr 14, 2008, 15:31:

MitchAlvarez,

This comes from first hand experience. They might not know exactally what it is but they catch onto the "no preset credit limit" part pretty quickly.

deathnova says on Apr 14, 2008, 19:26:

"They" refers to the one that i've been dating (and eventually engaged to) going on over a year now.

Man Tequila says on Apr 14, 2008, 19:29:

I would think you'd get noticed quicker if you did wear the white socks with the sandals.

lpdiver says on Apr 14, 2008, 22:20:

I got way more attention than I wanted after making a comment about my sister in laws and them being next in line if my current marriage failed. I am lucky to be left alone to take a dump!!
