Welcome to Colombia Victor, looks like you been here about 8 years, that's great as most are here and visit a week or two and wham they are never to be seen again and yet they post on IG and the like social media that they experienced in full Colombia, lol.

Yesterday was a special day for me as it was on November 29, 1990 ----- 35 YEARS ago when I arrived into Bogota!

After decades of trips (my expired US passport shows roughly 70 visits in/out of Colombia since November 1990) and exploring every city, town, pueblo, region/department, island/sailing, tourists spots and off the beaten path, points of interest, hiking/camping in the all of Colombia.............

...............it was December 15th 2010 on my first Medellin visit that caught my attention, so 15 years ago next month, and after 6 years of exploring the whole of Antioquia that I choose to live in a small pueblo an hour outside of Medellin, purchased my apartment/car/moto/home furnishing 9 years ago and can't have made a better choice!

I know your town Fusagasug谩 well as I have explored that whole area more times than I can count and can think that you made a great choice of where to settle. (and Silvana a hoop and skip away)

BTW I am originally from Los Angeles, California but have only returned once in the past 7 years and I dread my visit next year as I have so much peace and tranquility here in my pueblo that I don't want to risk any disruption.

Carry on lad!

Trying to post this pic.........

Admin, is not the photo posting working?

Maybe the third time is a charm, hehehehe, lets see:

@Bhavna

Gracias

I'm looking for silver coins of one troy ounce with markings of .999.

Do you know of any good places to purchase these coins from here in Colombia?

@ChineduOpara

If I remember correctly? It means land of many waters. There are lots of rivers in the area.

Unfortunately many of them are being polluted in the last eight years since I arrived. They were nice clean rivers eight years ago.

@South American Voyager

Before I left the USA I was thinking about going to Argentina; but one night before bed. I said a prayer asking God if there was somewhere else that He would rather I go.

I woke up in the morning with Bogota Colombia in my head.

After arriving in Bogota, I looked on my phone for a messianic church. There was two listed. One in Bogota and the other was in Fusagasug谩.

The one in Bogota didn't answer the phone. The one in Fusagasug谩 answered and spoke some English. My Spanish was almost none when I arrived. I'm still struggling with learning Spanish.

I'm looking for some silver coins. One troy ounce. With.999 markings.

If you know of any good places to possibly purchase some.

Thanks

@South American Voyager

I saw the photo of your proof that you first arrived here in 1990.

I thought that I would grow old and die in Colorado Springs Colorado; but God had other plans.

@victorwitness1221

Yep..and i have a bridge in Brooklyn tobsell , but obviously a homeless broke derelict couldnt afford my basement price

So how did you get in Colombia without a passport?

Or on an a flight ? Did you do the reverse Venezuelan route crossing frontiers illegally and crossed the jungle聽 聽through the Darien Gap?

Enquiring minds want to know.

@nico peligro

How much do you want for the Bridge?

I'll teach you a good verse from Psalm 1 in trade for it !

Blessed is he who walks NOT in the council of the ungodly. Nor stands in the paths of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scorners.

Did you catch the progression of verse? From walking to standing then sitting where one ought not to be?

@nico peligro

I got across the Mexican/Guatemalan border with the help of the bus attendant. She simply said to stay on the bus. And she closed the curtain.

I got my passport in Guatemala city Guatemala for $135 in 23 days.

I worked in Panama for a British couple. Fixing things in the house and property. After 5 months I had saved $500 because my employer fed me and provided an apartment on the premises where I worked for them.

They gave me a phone for Christmas while the traveled to England for the holiday.

Then when my six months stay time expired for Panama. My employer purchased a plane ticket to Colombia for me.

Isn't God AWESOME! In how He takes care of me for Trusting in Him

@victorwitness1221

Well holy sh!t, amazing story. You definitely had some MAJOR good luck! Hey, please send me 6 random numbers between 1 and 53 (inclusive), lemme play the FL State Lottery this week and see if your Divine Aura (Luck +10) extends to others...

Okay..6 kids, which you left behind, crossed 2 borders without a passport in a " bus" and " kind " British people pay your flight to Colombia..

Ok..got it..

@ChineduOpara

Major good luck or major horse hockey..

@nico peligro exactly! This just can't be a legit post.

The statement "After arriving in Bogota, I looked on my phone for a messianic church. There was two listed. One in Bogota and the other was in Fusagasug谩", anyone else remember Jim Jones/Peoples Temple in Guyana back in the late 70's.

That is quite a journey. Leaving under those circumstances and starting over in another country takes a lot of resolve. Even if people may see the reasons differently, it鈥檚 clear this was a major life change for you. I hope you鈥檝e been able to find more stability and peace since settling in Colombia.馃槉
