27 year old single male looking to move abroad to Columbia. College educated, speak Spanish very well and have a relatively good resume. I studied abroad in Buenos Aires in college and am very interested to work for at least a couple of years in Columbia. I know I would enjoy it, just want to know how the job market is for Americans. I would most likely look to teach English to get on my feet and get my Spanish back up to full fluency. I was looking at Cartagena and Bogota as locations. Any recommendations, advice etc is welcome.

Hi, Colombia has many private schools that employ native English speakers. I worked for Marymount School in Barranquilla and enjoyed it very much. I love the coast of Colombia - Barranquilla, Cartagena. Don't expect the big salaries, but really, it's for the experience!

All the best!
