Colombiano_81 comments on any colombianita willing to date me, IS UP TO NO GOOD

women dont care about looks as much as we do ...with that personality im sure you can score some pretty hot chicks man...just maybe ease up on the constepation topics and how youd love to help them undo it for them...other than that with that charm and those wisecracks Im sure youd be an awesome pick up chick pal...when im in barranquilla elmo ill be droppin you no doubt an email at malparariohp at yahoo.com right? You seem like an wesome guy to chill with and probably dem der chicks feel the same but you already know that.

Colombiano_81 comments on advice please from anyoneeeeeee

You don´t have to take the TESL. Being a native speaker is enough to get you jobs with private students and Institutes. You don´t ahve to speak any Spanish. I live in Bogota. You can make form 1 million to 2million a month if you get out tehre and look for classes. Excellent advice is what Philly said and look at all the tenses and prepositions. Buy an English general grammar book.. that will help tons. You can charge from 15, 000 up to 50, 0000 per hour giving classes. Go for it..it´s not hard...anyways the Institutes usually give you some sort of training to prepare you for your classes. Good luck!

 

Colombiano_81 comments on 10,000 US Dollars = How many Colombian Peso's?

360 the pile of goods would be bigger in Colombia. I agree about $1.50 USD buying power per each dollar sometimes more sometimes less.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on The gringonazation of our youth in the interior of Colombia

In bogota all these cachacos cover their faces with their umbrellas or books when the sun decides to come out (about twice a month) if you´re lucky. These bogotanos are so white its sickening. Ever had a naturally brown bogotana with her pants down? legs are discoloured white because of absolutely no sun exposure. Plain and simple, climate in Bogota sucks ass.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Salarios en colombia

you gotta get connections in this city if you want to make that sort of money...I think if you are a finance director you might make that (might)... other than that don´t expect to make more than 3 million.

Colombiano_81 comments on Going to Cartagena... have no Visa... intend to work...

I say go for it...but depends on how long you want to stay for....6 months I thin will bejust fine...2 years is different. You will probably want a decent life if you´re planning to live there long term and you wil definetly eed a cedula for that. (It is the equivalent of a drivers license in the US ..it is your main ID). Other than tha if just want the experience of living therefor afew months do it dude..You´ll probably have no problem but i do suggest you take soe money with you until you find your private students (it takes some time to get the ball rolling..mainly through references from other sudents). But i believe that you could get a job at an English Institute no prob evenwithout your RUT (clombian work paper)...Insitutes usually look the other way when it comes to this.... Gota go hope ithelps

Colombiano_81 comments on STEEP PRICE TO PAY FOR ENJOYING ROCK MUSIC. IS THERE A COLOMBIAN EQUIVALENT OR OPPOSITE?

Colombiano_81 comments on 4 de abril: Movimiento Nacional por la Libertad

another dam march....with no results..

 

Colombiano_81 comments on

GIB where do all these robberies and shootings take place? You live in Salitre.. that is a stratus 5 with pure closed complex apartment buildings, green parks, a fancy mall and an amusement park. How many heads getting blown off can you possibly see there? I live in Suba stratus 2 on the weekdays and Fontibon stratus 2 on the weekends and Ive yet to see anything happen. I play tejo and Rana and drink beer with the locals in the cheapest bars and barrios...get my haircut in the black"s barbershops and scoot out at midnight for empanada and chorizo and arepa runs. I travel throughout the whole city by bus everyday giving goddam english classes so Ive seen many barrios and talk to many people. Ive lived for over 4months this trip here with other stays of 3 months and so on other trips and although I know crime and corruption does exist it s not hard for me to believe you like to exagerate your experiences and scare people from coming here. Honestly, I feel safer here than I did in Toronto Canada. Ofcourse, I always watch my back and lookout for funny behavoiur or situations but I think the people in N.A are much more aggressive than here in Colombia. I also lived in the States. Most People here will kill or steal out of necessity, not boredom or pleasure like in North America. Whats more dangerous?

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Why No Applause When Colombianos Landing in Bogota???

dont you dare tell me there is no pride when we clap when the plane lands...tipical gringos talking...since they ahve no idea what its like to be LATIN.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Why No Applause When Colombianos Landing in Bogota???

Definetely my heart swells up with joy everytime the plane touches the country that saw me grow up for the best 4 years of my life fromthe age of 4 to 7. Chasing chickens and pulling on cow´s tails running around my grandma´s big all around the house yard..playing soccer and falling on puddles the size of small dams... taking la ¨carretilla¨ with my brother and walking through potreros 15 minutes away form home to buy milk for dinner and bread for dinner. Jumping over neighbours backyards to to play with the ducks and dogs and going to a school with no doors on its classes and having full soccer matches with crushed pop cans. Eating tasty foods and taking weekend trips to exotic lands with the family..Celebarating just about anything there is toi celebrate and learning how to dance since i could stand on my own 2 feet...dont make me talk about christams or new yeaars...I could go on and on but i ahve to go but basically my point is ofcourse we´re gonna clap when we reach our country. Whenever I go back to Toronto noone claps when we land. Whats there to clap about? snow? spoiled kids? wannabe badasses everywhere? 4 walls and a car and no life? Actually when I land In toronto i LITERALLY cry softly to myself ..when the tears start rolling down by themselves knowing I am in strange souless country once again and I have left my native land behind.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on olga1512

hey yes I was born in Venezuela but obnly stayed there until the age of 3 so I ddidn´t get to know my home country. My parents are both Colombian thus I consider myself Colombian and I lived in Colombia from the age of 4 to 7 then went off to Canada which explains why I speak perfect English. Currently I am living once again in Bogota. I see you are planning to visit again. Don´t hesitate to write a note and say hello. If there´s anything else that you´d like to know about my interesting life (lol) let me know ok ..see you.-

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Why No Applause When Colombianos Landing in Bogota???

Doesnt add up you´re right...but I have yet to meet a paisa that isnt as proud as a peacock to say he is paisa and to tell you all about his land and customs.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Why No Applause When Colombianos Landing in Bogota???

clapping in Us flights is the exeption. Clapping on Colombian flights is the norm.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Why No Applause When Colombianos Landing in Bogota???

Bogotanos will clap but not as much as paisas or calenos. Paisas and Calenos have much more sense of pride than rolos and miss their lands with a deep sense of longing and will constantly tell you how wonderful their lands are. This is the reason they clap more than rolos,.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Why No Applause When Colombianos Landing in Bogota???

disagree completely...The apllause is definetely due to pure joy of landing in our beloved hoem once again. You never hear canadians or people from the United States clapping in relief the plane got there safely. Definetely pure pride..I am a Colombian and I know this is the reason.

 

Colombiano_81 comments on Shipping items to Colombia from any place in the world - NEVER USE DHL

Colombiano_81 comments on Movin to Colombia - Bogota

Colombiano_81 comments on Movin to Colombia - Bogota

I dont think theres a city on earth that doesnt permit you to live elegantly if all of your housing, transportation, communication and needs are all paid for and to be getting 2500 US on top of that. I smells trolls also..

 

Colombiano_81 comments on 1000 USA dollars a month, and Barranquilla here I come.
