Hello all,
I have posted a couple of times on the Medellin forum. However it is looking very much like I'll be starting my time in Colombia in Chinchina/Manizales.
I plan to arrive in early November, and I have arrangements for housing temporarily already.
I have many questions:
I plan to stay a few months initially to get connected in the Chinchina area, and get comfortable.
Then back to the states to do taxes and take care of a bit of personal business.
Then back to Columbia for a longer stint, probably some years.
Here are my first questions:
Telephone..I have an iPhone via Verizon...should I use it in Colombia or purchase a phone there?
Drivers license..first trip I don't plan to do any driving but I'll have an international DL. However when I return I want to either bring my Motorcycle down or purchase a new motorcycle in Colombia...
So I'll need to find out about Columbian drivers licenses and motorcycle insurance.
Health Insurance: I am 67 and in very good health, but health insurance is a no brainer...gotta have it
Any general tips, advice, or information would be greatly appreciated.
Also, anyone who enjoys bicycles, motorcycles, tennis, astronomy, and good conversaton please get in touch
Any expats in Manizales, Periera, or the Chinchina area, I'd love to meet you when I get down there.
Thanks in advance
Dave Marquez
