Wizard----I was thinking about your comment about getting away from your SO. Why not go for the hotties and say you are going for a night dive.
The good ones only come out at night , during the day they are either out shopping, sending money home, or out with a big spender.
These chicas are not there for fun. They usually have had children starting at 15 or 16 and the father has left years ago. Usually their mothers take care of the kids. Others are working to start a business. I know a few that have retired. One sells clothing, one is a NuSkin distributor, another a cell phone store, two others that I know well and still visit, one sells native Colombian things to cruise ship people in Santa Marta, another has a moto bike store.
The final group are there to find a husband and many do find an American, French, Italian, or Dutch.
I actually bumped into chica I new from St Maarten, and her new husband, in Bogota and took them out to dinner since she had just married a man from Holland.
He works on the ferries from St Maarten to St. Barths.
A small few are there just to buy stuff for themselves, some to do drugs--coke is so cheap in the Curacao it is ridiculous , just a comment I am not into drugs.
Personally I like Colombianas. A friend of mine that owns 3 clubs in St Maarten said that he also likes Colombianas. He said and I agree that the Dominicanas are always hustling guys , and watch your wallet with them.
