Hi guys.

This will be my first time coming to CR! I know 2 days is a really short time, but I just want to relax, and have some fun before I ship out to bootcamp. (US Navy) I'm a pretty new and young monger as well, 22 years old lol. I've been reading a lot on this forum lately, and will be signing up for VIP today. You all seem great, really helpful so thank you for that.

I still haven't decided on whether if I should stay at HDR or SL since I'll be there for only 2 days. I have a budget about $1.500 (Airfare and hotel already covered, this is for fun/transportation/food etc.).

I'm not much of a drinker, a couple of beers maybe. I hope my budget is enough.

If you have any tips, I really would appreciate it.

Thank you so much for your time. Looking forward to hopefully meeting some of you!

Edit: I'm not in the service yet, I'll be shipping out to bootcamp in November. Sorry for the confusion!

Just 2 days... HDR

You budget, as typed, is unclear. If you only have $150 for fun money I'd say that is pretty damn tight and not worth going. If you have $1500 for 2 days then you're papi rico.

Thanks for your service.

Sorry for the late reply! Nope, budget is around $1500 for fun, food, taxi etc. No need to thank me sir, I still have a bootcamp to go through!

Thank you very much for your quick reply and help on this subject.

My mongering hobby began after I joined the Army 35 years ago. My first time was the red light district in Frankfurt, Germany. I was 18 and scared to death my first time.

It's been one wild ride ever since then. I have now mongered this entire globe with no intentions of letting up.
Thailand once again will be my next trip in August.

Good luck!!

Even doing 5 girls a day, drinking like a fish, plus eating at La Esquina de Buenos Aries you will not spend that kind of money. Just don't gamble with it at the casino and you will have money saved for your next trip.

I have a feeling you will and then you can say that you did.
