Paulyvegas does Costa Rica in style

a good Holiday gift and a must read

Good Job Pauly. I imagine Columbia should be next considering the string of fotos you posted earlier

Great just what we need more CR publicity. Let's lure some more gringos down there :roll: and CRT should become a PAY-SITE only and stop contributing to the problem by offering all the free info.

It didn't even use photos from Costa Rica.

The two middle photos are actually from Medellin, Colombia. They were lifted from the CRT VIP photos in the "Ladies Photos from all over the World".

The 2nd girl from the left dances at Fase Dos (I saw her there two weeks ago, what a body) and has been known to attend Mansion pool parties. #6767
The 3rd pic from the left was taken at Mango's discoteca. #6768

The other 2 pictures appear in CRT VIP photos in the "Ladies Photos from all over the World" too. The one on the left is #6606 and the one on the right is #6590. Both are credited to Paulyvegas so I guess he should be free to do whatever he wants with his own pictures even if he did post them in the gallery. The middle 2 were posted without any credit, but I am guessing those were his too, so I guess he can "lift" those as well.

I have to wonder why someone who was promoting a book based on CR would use pictures of a bunch of Colombianas? Maybe he couldn't find any chicas in CR that he thought were attractive enough to help promote his book?

Paco, I wouldn't worry too much about this site causing a fresh groundswell of gringos seeking out CR for carnal pleasures. All the media commentary cited on that site date back over 4 years ago to when the e-book came out and the play that it was converted to was playing at some little arty-new wave theatre in Chicago (hardly a widely seen Broadway success). As it was, they seemed to review it as some negative social commentary on the "seamy" side of CR tourism. So, whatever the author's intent, those reviews at least hardly glamorize it. And the play seems more likely to attract the attention of the bleeding heart liberal-intellectual types who look with disdain on the exploitation of women rather than us simple non-intellectual who-cares-as long-as-I-get-my-rocks-off monger types. The articles it cites from La Nacion and AMCostaRica are not so much literary reviews as complaints that the book and plays are just one more PR embarassment for CR, so you're not the only one unhappy about that aspect of this work. The "other side", those who are against CR sex tourism, are just as unhappy about that sort of thing, albeit for different reasons.

One last observation, I don't know how long that site has been up or if its counter has ever been reset but it shows less than 400 visitors and I'm sure a fair share of that came today from CRTers clicking on the link that Livincr provided.

Prolijo, am I reading correctly that you actually consider yourself to be non-intellectual? :?

I certainly could care less about your opinion of my opinion.
