let me dissapoint you,,
you have a good age,
problem is, i have not seen any real tica...
that hang out with gringos,, most of them looks
for europeans mostly, italian guys,,, not gringos
those ones who looks for gringos are the mestizas, (nicaraguans)...
in that case, prepare yourself to carry a lot of cash, and ridiculize
yourself hanging out with them at public places like san pedro
or even if you go to a classy restaurant with them, ppl will discriminate you...
but not the barmaids,,, of course you seem to be a good tiper...
if you look for one day action,,, better talk in spanish,,, those ticas from san pedro the good looking ones, nice clothed, most of them are "pipis" preppies, they also talk english,, but straight to the point,,, you're friendly english will be slow for them,,, specially in a crow... so other native speaking will kick your ass...
now... i guess if you are looking for advices,, forget it man.. if you couldn't do it in your own town,,, for free.. forget that fantasy down here.
