joeylove007 comments on joeylove007 I need to go to Bogota for about a week on June 8th. I would like stay around the north area from Chappinero Alto to maybe up to calle 100. The prices have nearly doubled in one year at all the hotels and apartahotels. Anyone suggest where to go around 40-50 US a Day?

joeylove007 comments on Warning Identiy Theft in Colombia "A McAfee Avert Labs white paper, released in January of 2007, reports that the number of keyloggers—malicious software code that tracks typing activity to capture passwords and other private information—has increased by 250 percent between January 2004 and May 2006." Makes us more aware how bad it has gotten. Thanks roquero and droble77. Both of you have good heads up info.

joeylove007 comments on Safety in Medellin I go to Parque Bolivar all the time I am in Medellin by myself. But reallly no reason to be there at night. But if you do go, be sure to dress down and don't wander like some lame tourist by yourself. Don't wear any jewelry, carry a wallet with a lot of money and cards. Turn your head around every minute to see if you are being followed. If you think someone is following you, turn and walk toward the direction they are without looking directly at them. Sometimes they stop, look a little startled, confused and walk away quickly. Of course if look like my picture, no one will bother you anyway.

joeylove007 comments on Exchange houses and fluctuation of rates Sounds more like they are speculating the the dollar will gain instead of drop. The FTA is blocked by the House Democarts. This may push the dollar back up, at least against the peso.

joeylove007 comments on Alejandro Fernández He's the son of Vicente Fernandez, who the best known marachi singer in the world. He is no Vicente when it comes to voice. My friend, a Urologist, in Bogota is his father in law. Alejandro is married to one of his two beautiful daughters (a real fox). He's says Alejandro is a real jerk and mr. machisto! He has beauitful women at his feet with the snap of the finger, from all over latin america. Hummm..wonder if he needs a gringo butler?

joeylove007 comments on If you speak even some spanish the door to meeting women in medellin muliplies. They love sweet words ( carino) They like men that dress well ( no flip flops and T shirts), clean is a must, no mustaches or facial hair, respect them but don't be a wimp either. They like touching but not any grabs. call them but not all the time. make them think you care but not love them. The rest will fall into place. I learned it the hard way. I'm short, old, ugly ,a bad knee lots of grey hair and still have pretty girls from 19-35 and still looking for more in medellin, cali and bogota. So quite whining and go after them! Know your 'enemy' and you will win the war.

joeylove007 comments on Colombian Travel Warning The Embassy also advises all U.S. male citizens in Colombia to avoid contact with women who do NOT want money for sex . It is a premeditated trap to get their residence in the USA and deminsh your savings, credit cards, property, mental health and run off with a beach bum.

joeylove007 comments on What if Colombia goes to war against Venezuela and Ecuador? It would be a knockout for Colombia. They have 255,000 active in the military. The reserves are around 85,000. 33 helicopters, some Blackhawks and tactical fighter/bombers. U.S technology is also the biggest factor. Twice what both Venezuela and Ecuador have and both still with a 1960's military. Colombian solders are also hardened battle trained for over 40 years. Even the paramilitary could whip them both. Chavez is a chime in the wind...all hot air. He knows he cannot win. Colombia shields Panama. They are the last tiger blocking the canal from being taken over by any foreign power. You really think the USA would allow Colombia to lose? The biggest danger Colombia has is in the states. The liberals in congress with Nancy Pelosi (the Syrian) voting to cut defense and aid to Colombia. What an ignorant San Francisco peanut brain!

joeylove007 comments on What to do if you overstay your visa DAS I was in Colombia for 60 days this year. I asked for an extension from the DAS in Bogota for medical reasons. They gave me the extra 30 days with out any trouble. I had to leave a couple of names and addresses of someone there for verification. About 90 days after I left, the DAS is going to these people's homes asking several questions about me. I don't know if this standard procedure with them or I'm a suspect for something. I need to go back soon for follow up medical treatment but how does one clear this up with them before I arrive there and get carried away at the airport?
