Thinking with the big head
I know this isn't about Lansing, but I'm not really inspired to get on the International board and post this, so it's functioning as a word of warning to any international travelers.
I was visiting a mid-size European city last week, which didn't many options for mongering besides streetwalkers (that I could research, anyway). I found the area where the SWs were and there were more than a dozen in a 3/4 mile stretch. Rather intoxicating. I was on foot, by the way. No 10s or anything, but I got myself some more Euros and decided to take a chance.
What a mistake. I guess I hoped that I'd get lucky and find a good one withOUT speaking the language and we could work things out with hand motions or something, LOL. Instead of admitting I was at a huge disadvantage, I acted like a total n00b and basically set myself up to be ripped off badly. TWICE! Don't really care to go into more details, but my point in posting is this. Unless you speak the language somewhat, or are in less of an open-ended environment (like a massage parlor) , or in a city that's better reviewed or has more sure things. DON'T try and monger in a strange international city. Resist the urge and wait til you get home.
