Expats talk about some of the biggest challenges they've faced living in Latin America. Whether you're moving to Panama City or Punta del Este, this article is a must read to help you prepare (hint: you'll be much happier if you learn the language) and adjust your expectations (realities: the roads are rough, the pace of life is slower and bureaucracy is unavoidable). Despite all of the challenges, the list of what expats like about life in Latin America far exceeds the challenges.
I used to visit Lima frequently. Have good friends there. However, they recently informed me not to go to Lima as the security situation has dramatically deteriorated with gangsters on motorcycles approaching turists and locals, shooting them in their heads and stealing everything they can.
guestNot sure why but Lima is the only place I have ever been where the menu says one price and they charge less. Dean
guestits an amazing place, thanks
