I have punted abroad a lot, but often come home thinking that London is the better scene.
It’s definetly not perfect nowadays, but having a lot of choice across AW + agencies + various options and all backed up with a review system is probably as good as it gets.
Maybe if you are a local in Barcelona or Berlin you can do better than what we learn about on the English speaking forums.
One more thing to say is that, looking at your reviews, you’re punting at a financial level which I can’t get to, which might explain why you prefer the London scene. The better money brings better options. I’ve found that in different countries there is a lower cost to get involved and a better service when you do.
I think one thing which punting in locations with more developed sex industries has going for it is lineups, either in brothels, FKKs or in RLDs, where you can have a look and an interaction with the wg before you make your decision. If she isn’t what you’re after, there’s another one there. And another, and another.
In London, you’ve got cash in your pocket, you’ve had to make an AW appointment, you get to a flat and don’t have a proper look at the girl until she has you in the flat and the door closed. If you decide to walk, there’s nowhere or nobody to get to maybe until the next day. The number of times I’ve been disappointed with the look of the girl but have gone for it anyway because I’ve got the bonk on and I’m not getting anyone else that day.
Go into the London review pages and look at the greys and reds. There, every day, right in front of you, is thousands of pounds in guys who have spent good money and come away feeling dissatisfied.
