Thinking about part-time teaching in Colombia

I hope this is not too self-serving and, therefore, appropriate to post here. My apologies if it isn't. I'm an early-retired guy coming to Colombia for 6 months this coming November. I'm thinking about doing some part-time teaching to fill in some time. I've got a bachelor's and master's in education with 7 years public school teaching here in the U.S., although it's been a long time since I've taught.

Where might be a good place to locate myself to find especially good opportunities? Are there any specific agencies I should inquire? A big priority for me is living somewhere that offers a good quality of life (translation=fun).

Thanks for any advice/recommendations.
