I've been going to San Jose 3 or 4 times a year since 2009. Only did Jaco once. My last trip to San Jose was Feb 2020. I have been planning to return for 12 days in late April or early May but am having 2nd thoughts. I'm an old guy of 70 now and like to have my fun from 2 or 3 in the afternoon until maybe 9PM. My go to places were always the Sportsmen's and Del Rey. I don't' particularly like MPs.
Before the pandemic, I would usually find at least 10-12 ladies in the Sportsmen's almost every night except maybe Sunday and Monday. Not as many as in days gone by, but enough to find something I wanted. From a lot of the posts I've been reading in the last 2 months, it sounds like the available talent at present is much less than that.
I would hate to spend the money on airfare and a hotel and find 2-3 girls at the SL most afternoons or early evenings
If any of you guys who have recent experience would let me know is my concerns are overblown or warranted.
PS. My back up position is Pattaya. Never been there but the YouTube videos make it look like a great time; however, I would only be willing to endure a 22-hour flight if San Jose is a total bust!
Thanks for your feedback on the SJ status quo, Amigos.
Perhaps you will find yourself in CR. If you are considering Asia, I personally would not sit on a plane for 22 hours unless I was being held hostage. If I'm flying stateside to Asia, then I would normally go to Hawaii first for at least a day or two, then to Guam for another couple of days, then to my final destination in Asia. Depending on where you are going in Asia, the flight from HI to Guam will probably be your longest leg, at almost 8 hours. Unless you are going to Japan, there's nowhere else along the way you can stop in the Pacific to get to Asia, except possibly somewhere in Micronesia or the Marshall Islands (even more burdensome). Now if you were going to Australia or perhaps Indonesia, you could stop in Fiji instead. Just be warned most of the flights from HI to Guam tend to be ghastly expensive.
That's just me. I don't see how people have the patience for those kinds of 22 hour long haul flights. But, if you wind up in CR, none of this may matter. Best of luck either way.
