Hello everyone,

Welcome on board, Steve !

Please note that I have created a new topic from your post on the Bogota forum so that you may better gather some information and interact with members.

All the very best

@StevenStapleton you are coming at a very " interesting" time and MAY be in for a very interesting week

Like they say in the movie聽 "you are not in Kansas Toto"

@StevenStapleton

Hi Steven, we've communicated about Santa Marta.

Just a heads up. I've not been to Bogota yet nor Medellin.

I have spoken to lots of travelers and I get the impression that Medellin is much preferable to Bogota for both climate and beauty.

So be sure to look around before deciding.

Hello,

Climate is an important factor in your decision. Bogota is cold (not Kansas cold, but anyway...), rainy, also, the city is almost 9,000 ft above sea level, so if you have have some health conditions it might not be the best choice for you

Cartagena or Santa Marta are too hot. You may want to explore Medellin, the city of eternal spring

City size is also important. Bogota is a large city, more than 8 million inhabitants

Medellin is a mid sized city (3 million) and has good health care

If you are "Very financially secure" you are probably one of those guys that can afford to lose hallf the value of your property , or maybe the whole thing, if it comes to that

I know guys like you living here.

Not allof us are in the same boat
