I'm in Spain. Right now I'm doing the "get out and meet as many people as possible" stage, with a little Tinder in my spare time. Am definitely trying to get that 1st local, lol. It's a new puzzle to solve.
As an example of saying yes, a girl I met at a language exchange, not really my type at all, invited me to see a parade with her friends. So I went. Her friends were about a dozen people, mostly young women. We also went to a bar later and met up with a couple more people. I didn't get laid or even meet anyone that did it for me, but I came out better situated than when I went in.
I'll share something I learned from an older English man who travels a lot on business.
He gave me the advice I gave you and it rings true with each country I travel to whilst on business.
In a foreign country where my poor language skills stands out like a sore thumb - generally speaking this will inadvertly mark a man out.
You'll need to blend into your surroundings ASAP to thrive and flourish. It has to be done via a local woman.
Any woman will do - young, pretty, common plain Jane, older or divorced doesn't matter.
Get 1, she will then work hard to make sure you're accepted into HER society.
Then men in her surroundings will subconsciously acquiesced when their own womenfolk sublimely back her up - this right here is ur goal.
That's where you'll get ur social standing - this is important when in new surroundings, as much for ur protection as well as being a wolf in a sheep's clothing.
Barriers will drop.
You'll be free to do whatever
your thing is in Spain then.
