I went on a solo trip to Medellin, Colombia for 10 days. Here's my report. Open to your feedback! ✅ Wins - Arrived knowing almost no one and left having met 100+ people, forming multiple overlapping social circles - Built strong social momentum by the end of the trip — comfortably opening dozens of people in a single night - Invited to perform at a rooftop jam session for ~200 people (major social proof moment) - Integrated into several communities: musicians, salsa dancers, language exchange groups, coffee tour groups - Built a strong alliance with one key male friend and helped generate high-energy group dynamics consistently - Noticeable improvement in vocal projection, posture, eye contact, and overall presence throughout the trip - Stayed highly present by minimizing social media and prioritizing real-world interactions - Successfully isolated a woman and led a venue change home (strong logistical leadership, even without a close) - Consistently created comfort and connection in new groups — natural social glue ⚠️ Challenges Hesitation to Approach: Saw opportunities but held back at times due to assumption of low interest. Underestimating Attractiveness: Missed or rationalized away signs of interest (eye contact, proximity, engagement). Fear of Making Women Uncomfortable: Defaulted to safe/friendly energy rather than allowing interactions to become man-to-woman. Overreliance on Conversation: Tried to build connection verbally instead of leading physically or logistically. Late Escalation: Attraction peaked earlier than action was taken in multiple interactions. Early-Trip Confidence Dips: Lower vocal strength and internal certainty affected presence at the beginning of the trip. 📚 Lessons - Attraction often exists earlier than you think - Waiting for certainty = loss of momentum - Physical leading communicates intent more clearly than verbal explanation - Emotional momentum matters more than long conversations - Confidence shows up as decisiveness, not just loudness - Social proof (performer + connector role) significantly amplifies attraction - You thrive in socially warm, activity-based environments -

Guys, I got invited by a female teammate for content creation to a photoshoot/music video mixer, in about a week. She is one of the organizers. Right now I'm sending out invites, using a flyer provided by the organizer, Instagram. Another model that I cold DM'ed showed some interest, asking for more information. Which I gave her. Telling her that its a photoshoot and music video session. I gave her the link to the song the video will be based on. This model's last question was "is it paid?". I already messaged by "No, its TFP" (trade for print). Her instagram profile is a business account and some models do have in their bios "dm for rates and booking". My question is, is there a way to word these things so that a model wants to show up without getting paid, but gets value from the photoshoot?
