Moving to Colombia

5 years ago
My wife and me have been planning to move to one of the Latin American countries .
We were considering Ecuador very seriously, ( still are) the two city options being Cuenca/ Quito
Somewhere down the line Colombia started to appear on our radar.
But we are not sure ? Heard so much about the Drug mafia, gang wars etc. But on the other hand hear very positive things now.
Our aim is to go to a place where a) People are warm
b) Weather is moderate
c) Crime if any is petty and low
d) Utilities are satisfactory
d) Medical facilities are good
Preferably where life is slower than in big towns.
And work is available- English teaching, Editing, Opportunities in Sales, Marketing, Retail trade etc.
For us once in, there is no going back to where we came from.
Request please take some time to help/ guide us as we will not be able to first visit to do a survey.
Thanks and Gracias
