大咖福利影院

Hi, I am Carlos Suarez, very new in here, would like to meet you all guys and girls. I like to swimming, play basketball and walk trough the jungle.

Hi Carlos,

Welcome to 大咖福利影院!

Hola. Me llamo Francisco, soy guipuzcoano y llevo algo m谩s de un a帽o residiendo en Cartagena, junto a mi mujer y mi ni帽a. Me gusta viajar, conocer gente, disfrutar de una buena tertulia entre amigos, el deporte en toda su dimensi贸n y deleitarme con lo maravilloso de los atardeceres cartageneros.

Hi FranciscoJ!

As this is the anglophone forum could you please post in English?

Thanks
Armand

Hi, I am in the first stages of retirement planning overseas and am trying to focus on a location.聽 I'm 60 and plan on retiring within 10 years.聽 I visited Cartagena once and have been to Colombia 3 times.聽 Other places I've visited are Santa Marta, Bogota and Medellin.

I like Colombia a lot, particularly the Cartagena/Santa Marta area, more so Santa Marta.聽 The main reasons for wanting to retire overseas (and Colombia) are financial, the weather and ease of traveling to the US.聽 However, I only speak a little Spanish.聽 I also don't want to live in big tourist spot which might completely rule out Cartagena.聽 I enjoyed Medellin also, but I want to be close to the beach.聽 I am divorced with no kids and, at this point, would be coming alone.

The reason I'm planning so far in advance is to have time to travel to my expected retirement area to ensure that I am making the right decision and possibly, to buy land or a condo prior to retiring.

Any suggestions appreciated including books or internet resources.聽 Gracias!
