If we were all forced to wear a warning label, what would yours say?

The guy's put too much efforts into previous posts to be dismissed as a troll. Peculiar sense of humor perhaps, but 'troll'? I think not...

Hey V_Man.....are you back home in Australia?
 
When you get back on your feet let us know how it went in Colombia.
 
How did you like Cali?

Si claro! Back home in Australia. Not over the jet lag yet.
After all my other rambling posts I thought my trip report was succint but apparently we don't all have the same sence of humor.  ::)

3 weeks in Colombia. I had a totally awesome time. It surpassed all expectations.
I could count the number of hours I was not with a local girl on two hands and I slept though them all. The whole thing was an education and a half plus some.  :o

1 week in Cali. What a blast! Every hour was an experience to write home about. Got out of the city into some very interesting places as well.  8)
1 week in Bogota. 3 nights in a hotel (paid for 4 but didn't make it home one night). The rest of the week in a barrio that was defintely the real Colombia.  ;)
1 week in Cartegena. Furthest I got was out to the islands. Kinda struggled to get too far due to certain indoor attractions.  :P

I'm falling in love so you guys need to slap me around a bit to bring me back to earth for a reality check.  ???

Already scheming how to get my lilly white backside back there pronto.  :P

I promise a real report in due course. Stay tuned.  ;D

Vman.

Sounds like a great trip - can't wait to hear more.

Yes, my wife and I always have the same "problem" in Cartagena.  It's so freaking hot and romantic, you have to spend the afternoons after lunch inside.  Getting out of bed in time not to miss the hotel breakfast was also always a struggle!

       Sounds like you at least enjoyed your trip.Even if you don't find Miss Right that makes the whole venture worthwhile.

VM -
 
Your 1st TR - WOW! -  That was all you had to say.  The only reason you would need to be slapped is you wasted three weeks in the crap holes.  Just think,  all three weeks spent in the perfect virons of Medellin.  It DOES sound like you did the MOST important thing on a first trip -  YOU ENJOYED IT !!!!!!!

Hey Vman, do you mind elaborting a little on how/where you met women while in Cali?  Online, agency, etc.
 
From reading your prior posts, it sounds like you may have had a friend that lives there so you already had a head start?
