What do people like (and dislike) about Santa Marta?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Santa Marta, they replied...
"Before I moved here, I knew what my Likes were: playa, pescado and perros. This is a very, very dog friendly pueblo, so I was gifted the dog I wanted UPON ARRIVAL. I don't just want any beach: I want one I can use as my private lap pool. So the small, wave-less bay and beach are what I desire. Being that I'm not a meat eater, it has always been expensive to buy seafood. Not here in a 400 year old fishing village. So, if you know your priorities BEFORE you move anywhere, you'll be content," explained one expat living in Santa Marta, Colombia.
