[blue]Okay, now you guys have got me confused.
Every cell phone number I've ever called in Argentina, including mine, was formatted as: 15-xxxx-xxxx.
When I called a cell phone number LD from the states, the dialing sequence was 011-54-15-xxxx-xxxx.
I've never dial a "11" in the sequence to call a cell phone in BA from the USA, but you guys keep referring to a cellphone sequence that requires a "9" in front of an "11".
So where does the new "9" need to be inserted?
Is it now 011-54-915-xxxx-xxxx?
Thanks,
Jackson[/blue]

Hey Jackson,
Sure glad I get to help you out, as you and your board have helped me so much. I just got off the phone in BA. Here's the new deal......Cell phone from US.....011 54911 xxxx xxxx no more (15) a home number is 011 5411 xxxx xxxx. Just add the 9 after the 54 for cell phones..
Thanks Jackson for the board and all the help. I'll be in BA February 2-11. Hope to be able to take you to dinner, I have already spoke to Roxana.
31 DAYS TO PARADISE!
BE COOL!

Jackson.......MRLA is correct....from the USA dial the country code (54) + cell phone designation 9 (for international calls only....from Buenos Aires it is still 15)+ city code (11 for BA) + the local number......so an international call to BA from the USA is 011.54.911.xxxx.xxxx
locally...same as before 15.xxxx.xxxx

ok, back from 10 days in our favorite city. lots to cover, some to directly answer questions posted in the last week, the rest just to provide detail info.
first off, the holiday days – dec-24,25,31 & jan-1 – are not good for the hobby. places like madahos, playwoman, affaire, shampoo, blacks, and the like were all closed both nights of each of the two holidays. and internet girls were difficult to confirm/schedule, and nearly impossible to contact. the other days around the holidays seemed quite similar to any other time, though.
INTERNET GIRLS
first, a quick story. i left on jan-1, and i spent the entire day attempting to schedule a visit for about 4p. from noon until about 4p i continually called a list of 20+ girls, with no answers. finally, i get an answer from deana of gemidos (not close to the top of this list, either, let me add). on the phone she claimed she was dolly, which i assumed was just her real name. turns out there are two girls working from that number, as 30 minutes later a different girls shows. i sent her home without further discussion (with taxi & $10). ok, next i get through to elisa from gemidos (about at the bottom of this list). i now only have an hour, she wanted $100. she has the same face, but bigger ass, and a large mole on her cleavage. and reaked of cigs (a peeve of mine, i forgot to ask on the phone). did give a bbbj but only due to my verbal pleading - she said because she thought i was so attractive (whatever). ok, on to some better info…
fernanda = bianka = yazmin / platinum;
-----
she was the first girl i called upon my arrival dec-23. she wanted $250 for 1.5hrs or $450 for longer. i used lines like “no, please charge me the same as before” and “i want to pay the same as the other girls” in case my accent gave me away (which of course it would), but she wouldn’t budge. i suspect this was due to the holiday timing, and she just wasn’t interested in working, because i clearly made her understand that i know the market. i told her no thanks, maybe i’d call another time. i called her throughout my stay, and never got an answer again.
amira / escorts-argentina; at my place; i offered ar$200, she accepted.
-----
she was on time more or less. her body is about exact to the pictures. she used to have one picture that showed her face, but now it is blurred-out like the others, and she looks a bit older in person than in that picture. she told me she was 26, and that could be about right, although she looks closer to 28, not quite as pretty as the pictures represent her. probably shorter than the 1,65 listed. very gfe, sweet. i think she refused bbbj, but i’m not certain. we had exchanged emails prior to my arrival in ba.
greta / gemidos; at my place; i offered ar$200, she accepted.
-----
pictures are exact for her face, but her body is bigger. she even brought the school girls outfit and changed into it between our warming up time of 20-30 minutes on the couch and the move to the bedroom. said she was 21, and very likely was.
marisa / gemidos
-----
she worked something like 9p-6a, and thus i was unable to meet her. there is a madam named ari who speaks english that may answer the phone, or will get on the phone if needed. quoted me $60/30min or $80/hr, my place or theirs (belgrano).
fiorela / area-vip
-----
real name is pricila, we traded emails in advance. i called her throughout my visit, and never obtained an answer on a call.
maria / platynum
-----
she is working in chile now.
CLUBS
visited madahos, playwoman, affaire numerous times. also made single visits to hooks, solid gold, closer, shampoo. madahos and playwoman seem to have the best girls right now, and pretty close tie between them for best imho. i saw nothing good in solid gold. closer was aweful, only like 4 girls, all less than 5 (other than the waitress who told me she goes home with men on a selective basis). shampoo on a sunday night also had poor selection quality, but some quantity. the hooks visit was a weeknight (mon or tue) and there were like 20 girls there, not so bad. one was real nice looking, and left with my friend, as i found one of the prettiest girls i’ve met in all my ba club visits. brisa is a very petite 20 or 21 yr-old, and claims to be only one month into the business. i believe it as her skills were not let’s say well developed. and she made every move in the book on me (eg. asking for us$150 and then agreeing “oh, ar$150”; asking for money first; bbbj, etc), but in the end learned that i would have none of each attempt so she agreed versus losing me (eg. when she insisted that she get the money first, of course this was when we were naked in bed, right!?, after lengthy enough talking i practically got up to cancel). in addition, she could have used some assistance in the hygiene area, get my drift?…maybe this was a temporary thing…
regarding my visit to flores, i'll have to say andres covered it perfectly, exactly.
AMATEUR SCENE
ba is a great city for just going out, and chasing girls, if that's your scene. i would say here are your requirements:
1- of course, you like the non-pro scene enough, implying you have enough skills (have some rap and fun) also.
2- you speak just enough spanish; i speak just enough, say to say sit in a public school with 5th graders, i'm certainly not fluent, and my friends may speak less, and we have no problem.
3- you look right, meaning you're attractive to the girl, with regard to age, fitness, attractiveness, etc.
so, no, a 50+ dude going to a disco to catch a 20 yr-old probably won't work, certainly not on the first night. but a 30-40+ younger than his age not good looking enough and in shape dude that has some rap can do well, even score the first night.
in addition, it's fun and easy to meet girls in the day. i just walk the neighborhood, maybe shopping, and when i spot a looker i simply act like i'm walking the same direction and stop her to ask for directions (where is xxxx place, or xxxx street - even though i know it's one blk that way). unlike the u.s., my experience is like 80% of the girls will be intrigued by your accent and ask 'where are you from' before you have to ask her more.
here are some places for this scene:
daytime- ave florida pedestrian mall; santa fe between ave 9th de julio & puerdeon; your malls - alto palermo, patio bullrich, pacifico, etc; the streets of recoletta or others.
nights- bar/restaurants include the las canitas area (acre st), palermo viejo (plaza serano - honduras & serano), palermo hollywood (start at the bar unico, about 10-15 blks down hondurus (i believe) from plaza serano, asia de cuba on specific nights (wed? fri/sat?), millones (1/2 blk off of santa fe not far from calloa but i'm not sure of exact cross); discos include those in costanero area such as mint (hottest new spot) buenos aires news (past it's day i'd say), tequilla (only on tue or is it wed?), pacha (don't go on matine night when it's all under 18, sorry i don't know exact nights), davina or is it davino, rivera este (was great, don't know if still open).

With the prices this good in Ba, is there any good golf out there. I need some break to reload after a night of mongering. I will be there on 1/18/03 - 1/27/03.
thanks

Leo
Very good report amigo! Like you, I also combine both mongering and non-pro scene. Of the places you mentioned, Ribera del Este (this place was great and used to go off!) is closed I been told and so El Divino in Puerto Madero.
Asia de Cuba is a place where I have never been lucky. I guess people go there in groups and I myself look like any other Argentine guy. Perhaps if girls would know that I come from the US w/ $ to burn things will be different, but again there is good side to it.
Buenos Aires News is still good, but is too loud to start a conversation with anyone.
Some places that I think are good are La Diosa and Pacha both in costanera. I also heard good things out of "Follia" in Canitas. Some chicas say is their place to party so I think in here you can approach the girls with your charms and if that's not enough we just told them about our Uncle Sam. Just kidding!!......:-)
Regarding meeting girls during the day, Florida is good but Santa Fe is even better I think. From 9 de Julio all the way up to Alto Palermo mall is just blocks and blocks of fine girlfriend material.
Sometimes when I'm talking to one girl another one passes by that is just as fine. Too much Gazelas for one lion!!
So Leo, was BA as hot in January as people say? I read about being unbearable.
Later, dancesw/chicas

hefe,
I did not have much luck with golf in BA. As far as I could tell all the good courses (near BA)are private and you have to be a member to play or know a member who can get you on. Not likely. There was a not very good public course ( 4 on a scale of 10) I played in Belgrano (can't remember the name) that Mayri (argentinago.com) found for me. I played it a couple of times. You would have to get the name from Mayri. If you do want to play bring shoes and golf balls. Especially the golfballs. You can rent the clubs and the set I used was pretty good (Ping - 20 or 25 pesos). Not bad at all. Finally, I don't believe any of the courses are open on Mondays.
I am considering a trip to Thailand in February for the golf and the ho'ing. Sometimes I'm not sure which of the two I enjoy more.

Later, dancesw/chicas [/i][/QUOTE]the 'hot spots' come and go fast, same as nyc or la or sobe... the hot new place in costanera is mint. canitas is much more laid back and bar oriented (vs. disco/club), and while i didn't see follia on this trip, i did go to soul food & voodoo, both were excellent.
the weather was hot, yes, but not nearly unbearable. i thought it was awesome actually - highs about 80 and only a little too humid.

Andres,
I just got back into BA today from Rio. I didn't save the email you sent me. Let's hook up this weekend for lunch or dinner. Email me at [email]saintofba@aol.com[/email].
I just spent the last several hours at the closing of my second apartment. Oh man. I'm excited. That place is awesome. Makes me want to just move to Buenos Aires and live in it. It is argueably the nicest building in Recoleta (at least it's the newest..only 3 years old). It was interesting because some famous model lives in my building. Mayra was with me before going in and Mayra pointed the girl out to me.
It's good to be home.
[blue]Hi Saint,
Not to disapoint you, because I'm sure that your building is great, but my building is the newest one in Recoleta, having been built just last year.
Jackson[/blue]
Ah...no biggie Jackson. I meant high rise apartment buildings. My apartment is on the 15th floor. The view at night is pretty cool. I'm moving over to it later today. I gotta get some more stuff for it but I'll have you over soon.

Has anyone seen Carlita and zoe on the Platynum site? they both look really hot. I would be very interested in any personal experiences as I plan my trip.

JamesBond, looks like these chicas in bonnefemme are just more re-packaged internet girls as I've seen so many times before, for example, so many girls on platynum.com are the same ones on sensualbaires.com, etc, etc,. Camila of bonnefemme is all over the internet, I can safely say. As for the others, I can't identify any others as being on different sites but I'd venture to say that some of the other astute BA internet site lookers would be able to cross reference a number of them. The premises look inviting though, but for the extra money that you probably have to pay to use these premises, I think I'd have just as nice a time taking them to one of the fancy love "albergue transitorios" with mirrored ceilings, jell beds, jacuzzis, etc. This Camila chica, for one, looks like she's a VERY high mileage working girl, I don't know if I'd like to go near her with your staff.

Saint, there are lots of us that you're leaving hanging here for not having said a word of comparison thus far between BA and Rio. This is very un-Saint-like and we Saint readers figure that by now you easily would've written at least 5,000 words of comparisons now that you've experienced both places. On the Rio board there's even some speculation that you're feeling that you might have acted a little hastily in getting two places in BA now that you've seen how awesome Rio is first hand. So come on Saint, what's the deal? Why are you being so quiet about the Rio-BA comparison? DownBA
