I was with Paula, from the Dominician. It was their Memorial Holiday of the Big War, so I guess the other two chicas were in morning. I paid the 100p and after having lunch at the Y, I talked her into a little BBBJ. But when I had a hard on went the Foro. She was in no hurry to end the session, we talked for a while, but I ran out of Spanish, so I went and had dinner down the block at the restaurant I mentioned on the List.

I felt safe walking around town, in the early evening.

It is a beach town, it is cheaper to eat and sleep, except maybe the pussy is more. I only had two days, so I can not be sure if there is cheaper pussy. The clubs are expensive. most likely cheap than B.A.'s Clubs.

I was there for the tour to the Veldes Peninsula. An all day tour, so not much time to find all the places. I was there off season. Weather was prefect.

For you younger guys the town on the Peninsula called Puerto Piramides is a real beach town. Diving, boating, swimming, lots of chicas. Lots of Booze and etc. Non Pro. In the summer it is hard to find a place to stay. It reminds me of the old days when everything was OK. A real hip type of beach town.

If I was in my 20s or 30s it would be like Santa Cruz in California. Party, Party every night.

Try it you will Like it.

My experience of the rest of Argentina, excluding Buenos Aires, is that that it has no value for mongers. Sure the Falls are a sight but what else?

As the old joke goes, 'If women didn't have a ****, there would be a heap of them in the rubbish dump'. The range and quality outside of BA for PFP is absolutely horrific, better stay in the Capital and not Chase the non-existent or poor quality chicas of the interior.

Hi Guys.

I will have a 1 or 2 nights in El Calafate in December.

The only report I have found is from 2004 and is based on "I have been told".

Does any one have any advice for night life there?

Thanks in advance.

[BadMan]

You know,

I have never been but I have an Argentine friend who, once he knew I was a hobbyist, offered to take me to an out of town PV, where he said I could get some really hot girls for alot cheaper than in Capital. I never took him up on that offer, but that is what I was told.

So you might want to try them out.

[CanuckleHead]

From what I read on these reports there is no better value in the smaller cities than in Buenos Aires private apartments. Would this be the consensus view from experienced members? I'm coming in October and will be travelling around for a couple of months and probably going to Paraguay as well.

[Xyconyx]

Your best bet is the newspaper.

Clubs are charging ridiculour prices, and some clubs are freaking ridiculous all together (fat old and missing teeth)

There's a conglomeration of bars on monseñor fagnano, south of san martin.

Most open at mid night.

The one I go to is next to two others within walking distance of the intersection of "25 de mayo" and "ricardo obligado" the most famour one with the hottest chicks is a place called el "luisito"

Expensive, 70p 15 minutes in the back.

250p the hour.

But the girls are pretty.

There is an awesome hourly motel by the crossing of ricardo obligado / Alte. G. Brown.

It's called "JA" for some reason, it's 30p the hour, 50p 2 hours, and 80p 8 hours.

Nice big bed, private bath with shower, and a little tv with porn 24 hours.

The best things is that you never see the clerk, the check in is a little counter, with a slit, you can hear the person but you don't see them.

They give you your change through a small sliding window in each room, and you can order drinks or condoms through it too.

It's clean, and cozy.

Some bars are bastards and exploit their girls, that is to say they aren't allowed to go and do business on their own, the one I go to has no qualms about it as long as they work at the bar at night, it's called "el gaucho" on ricardo obligado, the girls are okay, if you check it out.

Try and find "Lourdes", her face is so so, but her body is nice.

150p the hour, take her out from the bar then ask her for her cell.

The bar is kind of assholish about the time, and the time it takes to get to and from the motel counts as part of your hour.

That's about it, every other bar opens too late for me so I have no idea, or has disgusting women (I was desperate, but not THAT desperate)

An article in a recent issue of Veintitres magazine mentioned that during January and February there are a bunch of privados and clubs operating along the coast (Pinamar, Villa Gesell, etc. The owners apparently bring in chicas from Buenos Aires or elsewhere because their clientele happens to hang out there too.

[Lexton]

On exit from Paraguay this time I stopped in Formosa to check it out for a few days. I have been thru here before on buses, but never got off. It seems a peaceful little city, not very interesting for mongering.

Formosa is a city of 150,000+ in and is the capital of Formosa Province. The area is part of the Chaco geographically, so it is hot and dry most of the year. Formosa is generally a clean, orderly city, in spite of being in the top 4 in Argentina for poverty.

Hotels:

Apart Hotel Casa Grande, very nice rooms and grounds, with a nice pool. It does have a gas burner / sink in the room in addition to the frigobar, which accounts for the apart in the name. The bad part is it is located 7 boring blocks from the town center. There is practically nothing around it. About $ar100/ day dbl.

Hotel International de Turismo, newer, nice high rise hotel with spartan rooms that do have a frigobar. It has a pool. It has the choicest location in town, at the junction of 25 de Mayo and the Costanera, right in the center of most of the stuff in town. The roooms feature a beautiful view of the river. About $ar100/ day dbl.

Hotel Plaza has decent rooms, a little older. It is on the edge of Plaza 25 de Mayo, about in the center between the river and edge of town on 25 de Mayo. About 8 blocks from the Costanera, 11 from the university. Cheaper, at $ar85/ day for their large dbl. It might be useful if one wanted to walk frequently to the university area.

There is some action available. There are 3-4 MP type ads currently in paper La Mañana. In the past there have been 3-4 apartment ads also, but they have dissappeared for some reason. There is a sort of red light area on Calles Morena and Rivadavia, around cross streets Yrigoyen and Fatheringham. About 11:30PM there were some TV's and women SW, none very attractive, especially to me. There were a couple of SW on San Martin about 4 blocks north of 25 de Mayo. I spotted a couple of SW on Belgrano accross from residencial España about 2 blocks south of 25 de Mayo at around 11:00. The hotels have call lists, with I am sure exploitative commissions. I couldn't find any information on SW bars or clubs. There are a couple of regular discos.

There is a very beautiful Costanera, probably the city's best feature. There are many open air restaurant / cerveceria type places, beautifully lit at night. With the heat of January there were many customers.

I couldn't find much in the way of interesting restaurants. Several pizzaría / cervezaría type places, but not much more elaborate.

Motor scooters and motorcycles are very popular, and are at least 50/50 with cars. This is probably because there is little around the city and it is usually dry. The closest other city is Resistencia, about 130 Km away. So most trips are less than 20 blocks.

In summary, this is a peaceful, clean little city. One can stay here and live cheaply, quietly. There is a university within 15 blocks of the town center. With the poverty of Formosa, I would think there is a possibility of finding student company with time, when classes are in session. But there appears to be very little to do here besides sit around and drink beer in tranquil, sometimes beautiful surroundings.

[HotSam]

I went 10 days ago - Many hotel full - We choosed a room for 3 in a beautiful hotel beach front (don't remeber the name) for 180 p.

I found the hotels and restaurants in P. Madrin more expensive than be. A.

The night scene doesn't offer too much - I found just a couple of club near the bus - station.

Nobody answered me about privados.

[Rock Harders]

Went to Ushuaia the last week in October, stayed in a hostel, Cruz Del Sur, not bad, located on the corner of Gobernador Deloqui and 25 de Mayo. Made a stop in a stripjoint called Tropicana, very cheap, quoted $30ar for BJ $50ar for full service. Some truly revolting poontang on the prowl, however, out of the roughly 20 chicas there were 6 that were in the 6-8 range. One, named Ruby, from Peru, hot, though not super tight body, just had some certain sex appeal about her. One other I liked, don't recall name but from Tucuman, definetly an 8, awesome d cup tits along with a great overall package.

[Lexton]

I went to Resistencia to check it out. I stayed a week from April 11-17. I was in Corrientes so I just took the $ar8 taxi trip from Corrientes to Resistencia.

There are special taxis that go center to center between the cities for a fixed rate. In Corrientes, there is a parada on the Costanera San Martin near Calle Buenos Aires. In Resistencia, there is a parada on Calle Rawson near Calle Illia. The taxis are marked Corrientes-Resistencia in a circle on the door. Normally, they wait at the stop until 4 people arrive to share the fare, at $ar2/ea. You can leave at any time by agreeing to pay the fare of the empty seats. Thus, to travel alone, you take the next taxi in line at $ar8. The taxis cannot be called, you must go to the stop and take the next cab in line. Sometimes there is a line waiting(rush hours) and you would have to wait in line. You can take the taxi to your hotel to pick up your bags, and they will take you to a hotel on the other side. They may charge a couple pesos extra to go pick up your bags. You could also take a regular taxi, but it will cost a lot more at regular taxi rates. The city-city taxis do not have to deadhead back, so are much cheaper. They only cross for a full fare.

I stayed at the Covadonga Hotel. It is supposedly chica friendly, but I did not get a chance to verify that personally. The next best hotel seems to be the Gran Royal, although I did not look at rooms there. I did look at rooms at the Hotel Lemirson, and did not like them. They are clean and cheap but do not have a frig, which I really like. These hotels are conveniently located near the Plaza de Mayo and commercial center.

The staff at the Covadonga was totally unhelpful with finding a chica in the city, although I asked various people. This is typical of hotel staff. They want to call a chica on their list and charge a ridiculous comission, often more than the woman gets. This is especially true of the poorer cities. They will cheerfully find a woman for $us100 when the woman earns $us15 or 20. So they will not help you with anything else. I hate this kind of exploitation. But I often ask anyway, just to get their reaction to the whole idea. If you know the market, you can sometimes negotiate a more reasonable deal. For me, these hotel women tend to be much too professional in any case.

I arrived Monday, it rained constantly the first 3 days of the week, and I did not do anything much but rest. The second night(Tuesday) I did go to Affaire, at Calle Abrigado 185, as reported by others. There were 12 women working, but nothing anywhere near small enough. Most were fat by anyone's standard. I drank a $ar10 tonic water and left. I asked a woman if there were workers not present, and she said yes, because they live far and the rain kept them away.

The newspaper El Norte has the most ads, about 20. Most are not for legitimate apartments and massage parlors. They are advertising sex shops and products of various kinds. There were 5-10 that could have been small apartments and escorts, less than in Corrientes. None looked interesting to me.

Thursday the rain stopped and I negotiated a taxi tour of the city looking for SW activity, at $ar20/hour for the taxi. There are 10-15 women working on the streets here and there around town. 4-5 are in an area of a few blocks of 25 de Mayo, about 4 blocks away from the Plaza de Mayo. Some were of 6-7 quality, but much too big for me. There aren't that many because the police hassle them in Resistencia also, just as in Corrientes. Saturday in El Norte I read an article that said 2 women were arrested at a corner of Plaza España the day before. I had walked by there the night before looking for women because supposedly a few work there and there were none. No wonder! But the police did not molest a group of 4 grotesque workers that included 1 ugly TV one block from the other corner. Strangely, the police don't seem to molest the TV's in Corrientes, either. Most of the workers in Av Independecia, Corrientes are TV's.

I did get a quote from a woman in the steet of $ar30, plus a hotel. She was short, but up close about 15 lbs overweight, all in the hips and thighs. So I passed.

I walked around Friday night looking, and saw the same women again. I returned to Affaire, and there was nothing better, about 12 women again. And the best of Tuesday wasn't there.

Saturday, I walked around again and saw nothing. By chance, I took a short tour with another taxi of about 30 min. He showed me another corner that had 3 6's working that I hadn't seen before.

The incredible thing about Resistencia is the number of young people that go out. They are out every night, but especially Fri-Sat until the morning. There are a large number of pizzeria's and sidewalk cafes with beer that have large crowds starting about 11 PM. There is a huge number of attractive young women, usually in small groups. And obviously, a huge number of young men.

The other very unusual thing is there are at least 6-8 very large game halls with large numbers of pool tables. Like 15-20 tables, in very nice halls like casinos. Some also have video games. It is a very big thing, and many have large crowds of young people. I have never seen so many pool tables. There is a large modern casino, just finished in about 2000, with a hotel. The best hotel in town. I don't know if it is chica friendly.

There are few restaurants, just as in Corrientes. The many cafes have a very restricted menu. The pizza is the typical Argentinian types, all with too much bread. The cafes don't serve much food, most people only use them for coffee and beer. There are many cafes that I passed regularly several times a day, and never saw anyone eating food. Eating was, as is becoming common, a problem and boring.

All told, Resistencia is a decent agricultural area city, like Wichita, Kansas. Nothing very interesting or exceptional. And quite safe and conservative.

Couple of places to check out. One close to the bus terminal. Expensive drinks and the girls are just there to bleed your wallet dry. Don't bother with that place.

I stayed in a hotel in front of the beach called PLaya hotel 100 Pesos a night. This place is not bad and the owner is a regular guest at one of the club. Exit the hotel and turn left at the first intersection turn left again and go up three or four blocks my memory fails me. At the intersection make a right and the place should be the second door on your right. The place has no names out front just a red light at either end of the building. Drinks are cheap and plenty of girls. There is a room in the back for seventy pesos. I met a blond with big breast there Gloria, and had a great time with her in the back. Ialso met her one morning in the street and we went back to her place. She and I had another round and she mentioned her friend, I said why not and the friend came. Chunky girl, not pretty at all but the ultimate BBBJ, Slow, plenty of licking and sucking just no rush and she just love what she does.

[Michel]

I visited four of the clubs of Ushuaia during my four day stay there: Sheik Disco, Zingara, Tropicana and Sonia.

The first night I was checked by the local police as I was walking around hunting for boliches. Passport, hotel where I was staying the whole deal. I just ased them where were the boliches and they directed me in the right direction. If you look towards the mountains back of Ushuaia with your back to the Beagle canal they are on your right all about three to four blocks from the canal. Sonia´s address is 287 Antarlida WWW.nightclubsonia.com.ar

This place is for locals and if your spanish is not good you are going to have a hard time. Plenty of girls that I would rate up to 6, no more.

I did not like Tropicana. Too cold and just all business.

The best time I had was in Sheik Disco I guess for the company that I found.
A nice brunette. We talked all night and drank together until the place closed at five AM new city law in Ushuaia. I waited for her outside and we went to my place the ACA hotel. There was no problem for her to get in and when I check out the front office clerck just said : here is your bill and I haded Twenty pesos for. He was very good abut the whole thing.

Not a bad experience in the southern most city of the world

[Lexton]

I just spent 2 weeks in Clorinda, Argentina in Formosa Province, basically from Mar 6-19, 2005. The executive summary is simple: Avoid this place like the plague.

Clorinda's claim to fame is it's proximity to Asunción, Paraguay. There are only 2 reasonable land crossings to Paraguay outside of Brazil: Clorinda-Puerto Falcón and Posadas-Encarnación. Puerto-Falcon is 45km(1 hour by bus) from Asunción.

I went there to be closer to Asunción so my amiga from Asunción could visit me easily around the time her 1 year old boy was to have a hernia repair operation. I don't want to get another visa for Paraguay until May, so I couldn't go to Asunciòn. I told her I would pay for the operation(I made her show me the baby. He has a bad hernia.), basically about $US300. But there might have been complications that cost more. Unfortunately, the operation was not performed because the baby has a heart problem that they are still trying to diagnose. I only saw the recommendation/prescription for the ecocardiogram, but it looks serious. I am trying to help a little because she just doesn't deserve this kind of situation. I am also seeing her more than I would prefer in order to help. Sometimes it is better not to be too close, I think. It can be tough knowing these women.

I wish I had chosen to stay in Formosa, a much larger city about 1.5 hour south by bus and the capital of Formosa Provonce. The problem is it is not that easy to go from Asunción to Formosa. You usually have to go Asunción-Clorinda by one method, and from Clorinda to Formosa by another. This is because of the proximity of both cities to the frontier. There is only local transportation from Asunción to Puerto Falcón. One must then walk accross the frontier and take a taxi to Clorinda. There is another, much slower bus from Mercado Quatro in Asuncion that goes to an unnamed local frontier crossing to Clorinda at Av Buenos Aires. There may be international bus service Asuncion-Formosa, but the border crossing probably makes it undesireable and infrequent.

Clorinda is a dying city. The 2 best hotels are still shown in travel guides, but have been closed for years. There are 3 small residentials/hotels left, all bad. Residential Mario is the best but is owned by a bitter old man who is basically crazy, and is violently chica-unfriendly. He is a professed Christian type who has no morals at all except he hates sex. I won't go into the sordid details of my experience with him during my 8 days there. I left at 9:30PM after an argument over my amiga returning to the hotel after spending a couple days with her family in Asuncion. If he had been honest, I would have left for Formosa after a couple of days, instead of staying until it wasn't worth the trip. The Residential San Martin is chica friendly, but not quite as nice. The Hotel 9 de Julio is also chica friendly but the worst. All are 0-1 star quality. And I stayed in them all.

There are only 2 poor restaurants and a few sandwicherias. It is practically impossible to eat before noon and between 3 and 8:00PM. There is one café open that serves lomos and hamburgers all day. I ate practically every meal(breakfast and dinner) a lomo completo and lettuce and tomato salad in this café. Nearly everything closes for siesta. About half of the businesses on San Martin, the main street, are closed permanently. The bus terminal is only used by Godoy bus company and is closing down. The other companies are using a little café in Av España, the other commercial street about 7 blocks away.

There is some SW sex action, mostly at the YPF station at Avenida España and Ruta 11, so bad it isn't worth mentioning. They service the truck drivers.

One other note: On both the bus trip from Posadas to Clorinda, and Clorinda to Buenos Aires, the bus was stopped several times for highway checkpoints, travel documents of everyone were checked at least once, and carry-ons were searched at one stop in Formosa. On my trip from BA to Posadas in May 2004, there were no stops at all. I don't know if this is a new trend, or in May I was just lucky.

I went from Clorinda back to Buenos Aires for a little while.
