[quote="JohnnyC3D"]I'll be registering for my VIP CRT card.
Smart move.I'm assuming my fellow single travelers will be older than me?
Yes, most will be.I'm going to book at Sportsmans Lodge. Bill seems pretty cool from some YouTube videos and what I've read here it seems like a very secure/safe accommodations.
I would make the SL my second choice and the Hotel Little Havana my first choice. But both should be able to cut you a deal on the price since they will be pretty empty. With HLH, you get the 'legs and eggs' special and a discount rate on sessions if you are a guest. AND you are just a short walk to the SL.Anything special going on for Christmas at SL? Any other single guys going down the same time? Could always use a Mentor?
The CRT brotherhood is strong, and folks are always happy to answer questions. However, at that time of year, you will encounter few, but much more amenable chicas - need that last minute Xmas money-, as many mongers don't go down there. Both mongers and providers want to be home for the holidays.I understand Christmas is a bad time to go as the girls go home to their families. Is it still possible to pick up ticas? Does the quality go down hill? I'm not looking to go on a 24/7 Viagra fueled fuckfest but a hot girl every couple nights would be nice. What kind of action could be expected at the DR?
You have realistic expectations, so you should do fine. You will have less competition, and that might be the one time of the year that those hot imported Colombians will not be so mercenary and will want to 'wife up' with a nice, young, flat bellied, client for a few night for a reasonable price - say, $200 a night in your nice hotel room vs. their flop house or whore dorm, plus all their meals and drinks - because they, too, are far from home during Xmas, don't want to spend Xmas alone, and would appreciate a human connection. Have a couple of wrapped presents for the night of the 24th and make her day! NEWBIE QUESTION: If I pick up a girl from another bar, will she just jump in a taxi with me?
Yes. If she wants to go to your room and session, she will have to.Are the Taxis safe? Are there specific drivers that cater to gringos?
All of them would love to cater to gringos. However if you don't have a cell phone, you will have to call them from either your hotel phone, of the chica's phone. The guy that will pick you up at the airport would love for you to call him when you have a need, and especially for your return to the airport. But many times, for short trips between bars and your hotel, you will just get a regular cab and pay what is on the meter.Are there areas/places I should avoid?
After dark, take a registered cab between locations unless you speak Spanish fluently, have a black belt in some martial arts or are armed, and/or a graduate of a Tier 1 commando school or are travelling with someone or two with those qualities. Avoid the wooded park between the SL and the DR as it is a great place to get mugged. I'm assuming since Costa Rica is just North of the Cocaine Capital that drugs are a big issue here. Do a lot of girls use them? Will I be hasseled to buy them by dealers or even some of the ticas?
I am stickler on this. I don't want to see the inside of a local jail or prison, so I avoid teeny boppers and drugs, even weed. Unstable chicas, undiagnosed medical conditions, booze, drugs of unknown quality, can lead to a passed out or catatonic or violent chica in your room. It is rare to be propositioned by dealers, but it can happen. \just say no. It is rare to encounter a drug using chica. How does the local population view gringos? Is being Canadian beneficial?\
Yes. They will consider you a Canadian gringo.
But it depends upon the gringo. Are you loud, obnoxious, drunk in public, and draw attention to yourself? They are used to gringos of all stripes. Do the girls have issues with American made condoms? Not sure how safe I feel with third world rubbers. Anyone recommend a condom for CBJ's.
No issue with American made condoms. Avoid 3rd world rubbers.
Did you type this message on typewriter technology from the 19th century or on computer technology from the 21st? Switch to modern condom tech and go with female condoms.http://www.undercovercondoms.com/Condoms/Types/Female/8/womens-condoms.html?DivID=CondomStyles
Are the girls looking for rich gringos to marry?
Some are. Is it beneficial to be honest and mention I'm only here to bang them?
No, it is already implied, unless you let it be known that you are lonely and desparate and believe that you can find your soul mate in the Del Rey because you have the emotional maturity of Debra Winger in An Officer and a Gentleman. (couldn't figure out a nicer way to say that) Will some try to sucker me into giving them money every month? Only if you let it be known that you are an ATM machine with the survival instincts you had when you were a little boy.
I know absolutely no Spanish. Issue?
Start learning it now! The better your language skills, the better your experience.To be blunt, I'm fat, hairy and ugly.
You are 28 years old, man. You are too young to be packing the pounds of a 50 year old man. Skip dinner a few times a week and go to the gym instead. Hungry after substituting dinner with a 500 calory work out and some fruits and veggies? Go to bed early and hungry. You will be amazed what an extra hour of sleep and skipping a bunch of fats and carbs after 7pm will do for you sleep, waist line, and mood. Drink a gallon of water a day. Water, not booze, not frizzy drinks, nothing sugary. The week before you arrive, drink lots of pineapple juice to make your sweat and your jizz smell/taste nice.
Hairy? Get a waxing job or better yet, buy a couple of bottles of dipalitory cream and slather it all over yourself. \can't reach your back? get that part waxed./
Ugly is subjective, but if you start taking working your advantages, like your body's ability to respond to diet and exercise and you current high levels of testosterone, you will be way ahead of the game.
Prepping for the trip is part of the fun.Can this effect my chances at picking up the ladies?
\yes. A little. Chicas appreciate clean and well groomed, and if you were 28 and average looking/smelling, spoke some spanish, and was a little bit charming, they will treat you better than the mongers who are twice your age, reek of tobacco breath, and have dirt under their finger nails.Any other advice or tips will always be appreciated.
