In general, you want to be extra cautious when you’re abroad. This doesn’t mean you have to hide in your hotel and get nervous when you walk outside. However, you should at all time be vigilant, pay attention to your surroundings, and use common sense (rather than thinking with your dick).

Here are the most important travel safety tips you need to follow:

  1. Pick the safest area: When traveling to a city like Medellin (or broadly speaking, Latin America), you should keep in mind that there are dangerous areas and safe areas to live in. So, do all your research to make sure you’re picking the safest area to stay in. Whether it’s an Airbnb or a hotel. There will typically be extra police presence in the tourist areas and that’s exactly what you want
  2. Front desk: This is also very important. When you get an Airbnb or a hotel, make sure there’s a 24-hour front desk for added level of security. Let’s say you sleep with a girl and she turns out to be a prostitute, and you don’t actually pay her, she might have a freak out and/or call her pimp. With the front desk being available 24 hours, they can’t enter your building and the girl can’t openly freak out and she’d have to just leave. And worse comes to worse, if they rob something, the camera will catch it and that will again add another level of hesitation for people with criminal intentions
  3. Avoid group dates: Never ever accept group dates. Even if it is with you and your friend. The safety risk goes up massively. Some women will insist that they want to bring their gf or want to have a 3some with you. Don’t fall for this. If they want a 3some, make sure you only see 1 of the girls first before you see them both again. Which is exactly what I did. With group dates, while you’re talking to girl, the other girl can easily spike your drink or do something while you’re distracted.I remember when I was in Colombia and gave in to doing a group date, my friend observed the girl slipping something in my drink. Fortunately, he noticed it and it worked out. I decided to test the girl and offered her my drink and she wouldn’t touch it. After that we kicked them out.
  4. Drink safety: Which brings me to my next point. If you’re chillin at your place with a girl you got over from Tinder, make sure you take your drink with you anytime you go into the bathroom. Simply put, if a drink leaves your sight at any time anywhere in another country, stop drinking it.
  5. Choose a location for public dates: Most women in a city like Colombia will be okay with coming over to your place for wine. But some girls will want to meet outside first. In those cases, make sure you’re picking the place and not her. If she insists on a specific place and doesn’t budge, it’s a trap. that’s a definite red flag and we suggest you move on to the next one
  6. Gut feeling: Always listen to your gut when traveling. If something seems fishy or too good to be true, it probably is. Do NOT fall under the ego of thinking that it’s this easy because of your game or looks. Even with the example of the girl who tried to roofie me, my gut feeling was telling me something is off before the date even happened. I foolishly ignored it and was only saved by extreme luck.
  7. Belongings in a Safe: Most Airbnb and hotels will have a safe in your place. Make sure that you put the valuables in your safe before she comes over. Especially things like laptops, cameras, wallet and so on. If not, ask the front desk if they have a safe. Also, this should go without saying but don’t walk around with expensive things. No jewelry or expensive watches. In terms of your cell phone don’t be waiving it all over the place at night.
  8. Traveling with a friend: If possible, travel with a buddy. This is not a must, but is highly encouraged. Having someone who can watch your back (as was the case with me) is priceless
  9. No taxis: Absolutely do not order public taxis in most parts of the world. Only travel through Uber and drivers with good ratings. Most taxi drivers are not criminals, but Uber is still going to be safer. If a girl needs a ride, i will offer to call her an Uber. If she insists that it has to be a taxi, I take it as a red flag and just move on
  10. No prostitutes: If you try to deal with prostitutes, then the risks of danger are much higher. A lot of times they have a pimp who makes extra money by robbing her clients. So, it’s better to just not deal with them in the first place. Furthermore, we typically put “No prostitutas” on our Tinder bios in Latin America.
  11. Ask for IG: You should also try to ask her IG before getting her over. Not every girl in 3rd world countries has an IG so, it’s not a hard no if she doesn’t have one or isn’t actively posting on it. But it’s an added bonus if she has and the risk is low.
  12. Not giving her real number: If she insists on not giving her phone number and suggests to use textapps like kik or signal, it’s definitely a red flag because phone numbers can be traced back to her but the kik/signal app accounts can’t be tracked back to her. She can easily just delete her account on them.

Conclusion:

If you keep all these things in mind, you can avoid being a dead passport bro and can stay safe when you’re traveling. It’s definitely fun to fuck a lotta girls in other countries. So, if you do decide you want to go, make sure to follow this guide and use common sense.

Also, while we didn’t mention this previously, doing drugs is an additional risk. In south east Asia it can get you locked up in jail and in South America it can get you robbed by a dealer. I have personally partook here & there in some recreational drugs while I was in Colombia, but it is a risk. One that you probably don’t need.
