A Brichera in Bogota, Colombia
Posted on 07. Dec, 2010 by Colin.
SUMMARY: I ride a Colombian brichera who turns out to be scary.
I’ve written about gringo-hunters, bricheras, in Peru. There are bricheras in Colombia, but not nearly as many. In Bogota you find them in La Candelaria (Fatima, Candelario) and Zona Rosa (Irish Pub). I met Bricheraza the night of the Mick Reunion. … Read more

Lima City Rocks
Posted on 02. May, 2009 by Colin.
SUMMARY: Stories from my time in Lima, Peru. Sections include La Molina, Magdalena, Larco Museum, Miraflores: #1 Gringo Destination, Chorrillos: The Beach, Callao: Gangsta!, Water Park, Lima Nightlife, and Pics.
I had a negative impression of Lima. Arequipa is quirky in that Arequipeños consider themselves a different country. They won’t say they’re Peruvians, they’re arequipeños. It’s like Texas and Texans but worse. Arequipa has its own flag and passports. The founding day of Arequipa is a bigger party than Peruvian Independence Day … Read more

The Final Word on Bricheras
Posted on 08. Apr, 2009 by Colin.
SUMMARY: After a year in Peru I explain what it means to be a brichera and categorize them into Type 1′s or Type 2′s.
In retrospect my first Peruvian girlfriend was a brichera given she offered to marry me. But the Peruvians said she wasn’t. She didn’t speak English and never had a gringo boyfriend. So my first bona fide, gringo-hunting brichera (an English-speaker studying tourism) came my last week in Arequipa … Read more

Basketball Champs and Anita’s Done
Posted on 08. Sep, 2008 by Colin.
SUMMARY: Simon catches a brichera (two actually, at the same time). My team wins the city championship. Anita’s in love.
After leaving Arequipa my Irish cousin Simon sent this email:
I just wanted to fill you in on a weird happening i had in Lima. As you may remember when we were in Deja Vu in Arequipa we were both dancing with those two gringo hunters (you had the smaller one with huge tits and a nice ass) …

Irish in Arequipa; Disaster Ensues
Posted on 01. Sep, 2008 by Colin.
SUMMARY: Irish family came through Arequipa for the weekend. By the time they left I lost my girlfriend, my apartment, and my phone.
An Irish cousin who I’d never met and his buddies came through Arequipa for the weekend. I met Simon’s father, who comes to St. Louis every few years, when I was 12. He was in St. Louis just before I moved to Peru. He told me his son, Simon, was going on a three-month adventure through South America. … Read more

Rosa is a Brichera
Posted on 22. Aug, 2008 by Colin.
SUMMARY: Rosa’s a brichera who’s lost her mind.
The end of Rosa and I is coming soon. You’ve have gathered that I am not in love and cheat whenever possible. She has started to go a little crazy. She’s begun her efforts in trying to change a man. … Read more

More Gringos Visit: Inebriation Ensues
Posted on 14. Jul, 2008 by Colin.
SUMMARY: Chuck and Steve visit Arequipa for another drunken gringo weekend.
Chuck and Steve came to Arequipa for the weekend. Chuck arrived Thursday night and Steve arrived Friday morning. I planned on taking Chuck to Dady O’s – a sleazy reggaeton club downtown known for young easy women and dirt cheap drinks. But alas, Rosa called me around ten to tell me that she and a friend were at Deja Vu. She and I had arranged for her to line up friends for Chuck and Steve … Read more

The Brichera Scowl and The Second Date
Posted on 05. May, 2008 by Colin.
I got the feeling Friday that I needed a woman soon or my testicles might implode. So I went out alone on a mission. I met a girl in a bar. Her name was Maria and she was really into Latin rock. She wasn’t a tomboy by American standards, but not as feminine as most Latinas. If she were born and raised in America, she would’ve been a punk rock or heavy metal type. She had a beautiful face but her body was not up to par. She wasn’t fat per se, but not up to my standards. … Read more
