Colombia: Can you drink the water in Colombia:

Hello folks. Thanks for all the interesting responses regarding drinking water. I have read that the water is potable in Medellin. But I am asking specifically about the water in Cali, which is where I'm heading. Any updates?

Colombia: Expats who returned to US or Canada:

Hey everybody- Sorry to change the subject here, but I'm planning to move to Cali and I wonder if anyone can tell me if the water there is potable for gringos to drink? Thanks for any answers.

Colombia: What's it like being an Expat in Medellin?:

joewarpmind - FYI , I am moving to Cali this year where I have a beautiful and sweet lady awaiting me. I also have a ponytail and two earrings, have three college degrees, and sit anywhere on the " bus " I choose. So f**k off you prejudiced SOB.

Colombia: Plantra Fasiitis Treatment in Colombia:

Hello - I had that once following a car accident. My physical therapist advised me to sleep with a high top sneaker on that foot to keep it stabilized . My converse high tops seemed to help.

Colombia: Trump & Colombia:

Personally I would be more than happy to see " Congress thrown under the bus ", along with the greedy vultures on Wallstreet and the banks and major corporations that have sucked the average citizen dry. Good riddance!

Colombia: Cali rentals and tax changes:

Hello - I guess I should direct my Cali questions to Timllow, since he is our man on the scene. I had planned to move to Medellin next year , but started corresponding with a sweet lady in Cali a number of months ago. She wants me to move there now, but my research has focussed primarily on Medellin previously. Could anyone give me an idea of how apartment rental prices in Cali compare to those in Medellin, please? I'm looking for a studio or one bedroom in a safer neighborhood. Also , I have read several articles regarding the recent tax changes in Colombia but still find them confusing. I would qualify for residency based on my US Social Security pension, but will the government now take 33% of that also? I would appreciate any insight on these subjects you can provide. Thanks!
