Brad, Penelope and Jamie

[papi]

I just want to write a note to Jamie thanking him for working so hard on helping me find a woman in BQ. He really does take a far more professional approach to the biz than others in BQ. I did meet an absolutely stunning woman from him - she looks like Penelope Cruz and I could see myself getting serious with her. The problem was is that I did not get to spend a great deal of time with her this trip because I made a hit and run to BQ only 5 nights and was trying to juggle a lot of citas working with Jamie and another agency to return to Miami with some options. But Penelope caught Brad's..i mean the Papi's attention. Jamie..if you are reading this thanks again and please have your staff call her and encourage her to write me. She is a complete novice at the email thing - i opened a Yahoo account for her and gave her a few bucks to go to the internet cafe regularly. maybe if you could offer to have her swing by your place and make sure she can use her email. I can email you her password if she is having trouble logging in.

Papi:

Glad to hear things worked out for you with "Penelope" in BAQ.  I will be there late Friday night (7/22), through Tuesday 8/2.

I'm also going to meet a girl from Jamie's agency.  This will be the first time I "met" a girl over the phone, rather than meeting her in person first.  We'll see what happens.

I have some backup plans, girls I previously met through International Introducions, but hopefully won't the backup plans...

Good luck in BQ - I know Jamie will take care of you. This trip kind of seals my opinion of BQ (it is a dump as I believe also recently reported by Heat), but good for chica search if you can deal with the heat and the attack dog mosquitoes. i think i would splurge next time and go for a place with a pool like the BQ Plaza, but i do like the Versalles where i stayed this trip - people are friendly and they know me there

How much was it to stay at the Versalles?

Jamie says there is another hotel near my chica called (belive it or not) Exito (not to be confused with the superstore called Exito) that I can get for about $30 USD per night.

about the same - with tax just under $80K pesos with breakfast. It is a few blocks from the El Prado by the Clinica Norte in a good location clean and friendly people but small rooms and can be noisy in the morning. they also have internet. 4-5 nights is all i can take

Papi .......... if this babe looks anything like Penelope I think I would be jumping on this ASAP .... I am just a little curious ... why is BQ a dump ? I have never seen this place . I think almost all small cities in SA are the same . Are you comparing this to Cali ? or Medillin ?

I really like this girl Jake but I did not spend that much time with her. She is very different from any woman I met before - very unique personality and from European decent. I called her tonight and hoping she will write me tomorrow which she promised to do. time will tell

In answer to your question regarding BQ, for starters it is F..G HOT!  And the F...G mosquitoes are like attack dogs.  There is not much to do, it is not all that pretty compared to other areas and not the cleanest city I have seen in SA.  Did I mention that it is F..g hot.  But again good chica hunting nontheless and the people are very friendly with the exception of the low class chicas with no manners

The BAQ heat doesn't bother me at all.  Living in Ohio all my life, with a brief stint in Michigan, I appreciate any climate that has no snow or ice.

As far as the mosquitoes, I'm surprised I haven't heard anyone else has mention this (I always forget).  In preparation of the blood-sucking brigade, my ex-military friend advised me to get a "mosquito net", which I picked up yesterday at the US Army Surplus store.

the net wont help you when you are on the internet or sitting in a cafe unless you want to walk around with it on your head. i bought some repellent

Papi , my babe is also euro decent  ,Italy to be exact . It is a good blend . It can't be hotter in BQ than in Florida ?? I always thought it would be easier to find a lady in the small cities ... they don't have the exposure to many men .. so you have little comp from other men . And they are not seeing a different gringo every week ....... put yout heart in to this one ......

I new a guy who did what you did and stop the Visa process , and he started all over with a new lady about 8 months later and had no problem ...

Jake, BAQ is not a "small" city for population.  I believe it has about 3 million people.  However, it seems like a small city because there are not a lot of things to do.  It isn't the most "attractive" place, since it is like a "concrete jungle" with all the buildings and houses connected together, with no grass anywhere in site.  But I was/am sightseeing for chicas, not landmarks... the view of chicas is AWESOME!

Jake, Penelope is of Italian decent too. BQ is not a small city and yes the heat is worse than Miami
