PBH / colombia (travelguide, pictures) / post

Having good luck on the visa front with all sorts of visa,s

well...after 20 questions my wife(pr canadin) and i can now visit and fly through u.s. air space...took about 4 months to book an apointment with the u.s. embassy in calgary and a special trip there ...and 150 can bucks..so she could travel through the u.s. As she had a canadian husband and canadian daughter i suppose they finally figured she was not a threat with her colombian passport.
Also managed to obtain a work visa to canada for a colombian friend of my wife for work in my business...this will be colombian no 2 ive brought to canuckville for work...the first one is working out great and is happy in her job..now working on a third and have plans to and the okay to bring a fourth worker....all in all not a bad deal for the workers as flights ...accomodations etc are all taken care off they can pocket some money and they get to travel and exsperience a different country.
Not such a bad deal for me either as my house is beginning to fill up will atractive colombian ladys..(im only interested in my wife) but actually its a lot of fun...
been away for a while so i thought id pop in and say hello....
visiting colombia again in sept....

I am glad you got that visa. Now you can use that airline credit. How long is your wife's US visa good for?

My wifes visa (tourist visa) is good for ten years...she will have canadian citizenship in about 1.5 years so she likley won,t need it once she gets a canadian passport but a least she will have it if for any reason they question it.... ya.for sure i,ll use up my AAlines credit and it will be the only time i ever fly that airline again..ive tryed phoning...writing them ..faxing them etc and no way to talk or get a response from anyone.I prefer to fly through the u.s and spend a day or two on my way to colombia so it will be nice to be able to do that.
