Did you use local sites or find girls at clubs?

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to get a local SIM.

I was there in last month and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.
