davidfmbca comments on Guide to Providencia

OK sounds great! Now, can anyone tell me how far is the Maryland Decameron from the Tiuna Hotel? I heard its only a few minutes walk. I wanna go to San Andres but not sure which place to stay. I hear they're close together.

davidfmbca comments on San Andres Island??

NO doubt about it We're definately going to tie the knot in San Andreas next spring. But for now,we're planning to visit for Christmas to get information and locate the Notary for the island that looks after things,etc. I sent an email to lovelysanandreas to find out more info about all that, but the question I have today for all the rest of you posting here, is what hotel do you recommend for the one's available for us Canadian touristas because we only have a choice of the 5 Decameron ones disponible.

They are the Marazul, Aquarium, Isleno, Maryland and San Luis. They're all interconnected somehow, but which one is the best for beach, entertainment, food, etc. Any recommendations for those of you who have visited the island (or live there)?

davidfmbca comments on Colombian tourist visas for canada

Tourist Visa to Canada According to Cohen Campbell, if she travels with a family member, like her mother or father, and they have a CREDIT CARD, some cash to show on their visa application for travel expenses, and an itinerary, like hotel reservations, airfare, etc. the tourist visa application should be pretty easy to get. Also, a reason to return to Colombia is also needed so that the reason for bringing a family member along. Also, if she works or goes to University, that will help too. The main thing is to apply a couple of months before the travel, have a credit card, cash and some hotel reservations and the visa should get approved.
Cohen Campbell's are great but they mainly specialize in immigration (spousal) applications but they are the very knowledgable and helpful.

davidfmbca comments on MEETING A COLOMBIAN WOMEN ONLINE

Great Post This is a great post and you can tell by the traffic, everyone else thinks so too.
Buddy, I don't think you have to worry because the Colombian women generally are warm, sincere and loving and she wants to make your trip very safe and special for you.
I was a chicken too but fortunately she suggested Panama for the first meeting and her whole family came along. It was the start of the most beautiful experience of my life. You definately won't regret it but if you're a little nervous, you should spring for a getaway in San Andreas which is part of Colombia and you'll definately be safe or Panama is really safe too. Do whatever, but don't blow it because you'll be so happy after you return. If you're worried, leave all your contact info and get her home address, home phone #, any other details on her that you can before you travel. Tell her u want to send her a gift or something. Then you can leave the info with someone at home. But overall, the Russian experience is horrible, but I'm sure its a very isolated thing. Thousands of gringos do the same thing everyday travelling to Colombia and never have any problems. Try meeting someone on the plane and fill them in on where you're going to be at and where you're staying and suggest you link up with them the next day. There's all sorts of ways of covering yourself. ENJOY! You're about to begin the greatest experience of your life, just like all the rest of us.

davidfmbca comments on marraige in colombia with only a passport?

That's the simplest Definately San Andres is the way to go. Its simple, the island is beautiful and you can combine the occasion with a honeymoon at the same time.

Everyone talks about the "one and only" Notary on San Andres. Does anyone out there know his/her name and phone number or how to get ahold of this person?
That would be really handy for the 'would-be' San Andres matrimony planners.

davidfmbca comments on US OR COLOMBIAN LAWYER???

Either one will work since the paper work goes both ways. For anyone who has a complicated or involved Visa process ahead of them here is a good attorney in Bogota for ya.

He speaks pretty good English and is a good guy, honest and he knows his stuff.

davidfmbca comments on Marriage San Andres

Sounds Great! I've heard its a snap getting married in San Andreas compared to Colombia mainland. So, can you give us the name of the notary and how to locate him/her? Also, what kind of questions did they ask you that you mentioned about concerns about false statements? Isn't it a question of provide proper ID and that's all?

I was thinking of San Andreas as a possible marriage destination because I heard it was very simple and also very beautiful there. Also, has any had any experiences in getting married to Colombians in Panama and what the immigration process from Panama might be?

davidfmbca comments on warning for Canadians....

Steve-O Steve-o, don't panic just yet. It sounds like you're only a few months behind the regular turn around time for these applications. I'm told that it usually takes 2 months in Mississauga, Canadian immigration office and 4-6 months in Bogota. It may help to get your Member of Parliment to make a phone call or two. There's probably an election coming in the next year so he (she) will be anxious to help you. Also, I would consider hiring an immigration lawyer, either in Canada or Bogota to help you along. The best is Cohen Campbell in Montreal 1-888-947-9445 and a good guy, english speaking fellow in Bogota can also help you, I heard. His name is Luis E. Riano Tel: 222-7525 cel: 3124338096. I've dealt with Cohen in Canada and he's great but I haven't used Riano but I heard he's supposed to be very honest and helpful guy. Good luck.

davidfmbca comments on Difficulty with cell phone calls

Strange Problem No, I've been phoning my doll couple times a week on her cellphone from my computer using SKYPE out credits and its clear, cheap and no problems. Maybe its the city you're calling. My doll lives in Barranquilla and there never seems to be a problem with getting through unless I call her using one of those cheap 1 cent a minute calling cards. But if I call from my computer using Skype or one of the more expensive calling cards, it always works.

By the way, do the folks in Colombia have to pay for incoming calls to their cellphones from international like we have to pay here in North America or do they only pay for calls that they make?

davidfmbca comments on items confisgated from mail

No accident Its no accident. I sent my girlfriend a package from Canada for Christmas and it was full of a bunch of expensive stuff and the package arrived to her unopened and everything was in there (including some gold and diamond jewellry). But, she sent me a package from Colombia to Canada with just a couple of small inexpensive items and the package was ripped open and gone through by someone. Fortunately nothing was taken but its probably because there was nothing really valuable in there. I guess all the packages leaving Colombia must be opened automatically either by the customs people or snoopy workers looking for something valuable. Watch out for anything you send out of the country from Colombia.

davidfmbca comments on SINGLE CERTIFICATE

Certificado I needed one too and I called my local province's (Canada)vital records office, where you get birth, marriage and death certificates, etc and they did a search for me and made me a "Certifcate of Non-Marital Status" with a seal and everything. So, if you live in the U.S.A., just call your local state registry office where you get these type of things and order one. They can rush it for you for a few extra bucks.

davidfmbca comments on Process time

Suggestion I can't believe it would take that long either. There's something wrong with the system if they would keep a family apart that long. I would suggest that you hire a immigration lawyer, either in Canada or in Bogota, (or both!) and see if they can put some pressure on moving things up the ladder a bit. Its probably the squeeky wheel that gets the grease there so maybe someone who knows the ropes can speed things up for you. Its probably worth a few phone calls. I got a couple of names if you don't know of any lawyers that specialize in this stuff in both Canada and Bogota.

davidfmbca comments on The Perfect Colombian Family

Whats the problem Yes, there are a lot of families that have their issues. Its sounds like your girlfriend is the only one who doesn't have a lot of hangups. She's probably thankful she has you and would make a good loving, and appreciative wife. Maybe if you got her away from all those perverts, she would start to enjoy life and the two of you can start to live your own life and enjoy each other. Suggestion. Marry her, get her out of there, and give her lots of love and attention and you'll probably be the luckiest guy in the world. A dedicated, stay at home, appreciative wife is a dream come true. Enjoy! Jealousy is normal so why not try to not make her jealous.

davidfmbca comments on Help with Certificate of Singlehood

I know You think you got problems? My girlfriends parents wanted me to provide them with a "Certificate of Singlehood" before we could even see each other, never mind get married!
Anyways, you go to your state's registry bureau, where you would normally go to get marriage and death certificates. You ask them for them to do a search on your marriages and the results will indicate you have not been married since .... So, you give them that and also your divorce papers and you're all set.

davidfmbca comments on Engagement Traditions

Wrong way No, you got it backwards. The man must ask the Colombian woman's father for his permission to marry her. Its not a lot different than traditional American customs.
The catch for you is, that the woman's family has the pay for the cost of the wedding so let your Daddy know that its going to cost him.

davidfmbca comments on Honeymoon Destinations

Lots of places There are a lot of places you can go that a Colombian doesn't need a visa. If you want to stay in Colombia, go to San Andreas Island. It beautiful and it belongs to Colombia and they treat honeymooners great.

Also, Panama has no requirements for Colombians to enter and its beautiful there and also full of other Colombian tourists.
Dominican Republic is another place with no visa requirements and all the South American countries too don't require visas. So, there's a million places you can go to. I believe Colombians don't need visa to travel overseas to Israel if you're into something like that. Check the embassies and they' ll tell you.

davidfmbca comments on Fiancee in Barranquilla

Fiance in Barranquilla Don't worry too much about it. The simple solution is not to offer her money for awhile and see what she says. If she drops you, well......Just say you're a little short of cash for a few months, Christmas bill, etc. After a few months you can surprise her and lay some cash on her. If she's still with you, she'll really appreciate not having to ask for it and she'll know you really care.
But normally they won't ask for money but if you offer, well that's a different story.
Remember the amount of money you're giving her is chump change for you and very helpful for her. So, if you love her, why not offer to help her out.
As for her friend, well, I think that many young women anywhere will try to sabotage their friends relationship out of jealousy, so that's normal. My girlfriend from Barranquilla never asks for money, but you shouldn't worry about giving her a bit to help out. The real people you need to get to know are her family. If you like her family and they treat you well, you should be okay, but stay away from the friends, because they're obviously wishing they could snag someone like you too.
Don't listen to all these windbags scaring the heck out of you. If you love her, and she's reliable, sincere and kind, then do what comes naturally to you. Remember, the girls from Colombia are no different than girls from Missouri, they just speak a different language. If you're both in love, you'll know, so don't panic.

If you like her family and they treat you well, you should be okay, but stay away from the friends, because they're obviously wishing they could snag someone like you too.
Don't listen to all these windbags scaring the heck out of you. If you love her, and she's reliable, sincere and kind, then do what comes naturally to you. Remember, the girls from Colombia are no different than girls from Missouri, they just speak a different language. If you're both in love, you'll know, so don't panic.

Your money Don't worry too much about it. The simple solution is not to offer her money for awhile and see what she says. If she drops you, well......Just say you're a little short of cash for a few months, Christmas bill, etc. After a few months you can surprise her and lay some cash on her. If she's still with you, she'll really appreciate not having to ask for it and she'll know you really care.
But normally they won't ask for money but if you offer, well that's a different story.
Remember the amount of money you're giving her is chump change for you and very helpful for her. So, if you love her, why not offer to help her out.

davidfmbca comments on Question #1 - Previous Marriage

Marital status I don't think you'll have any problem as long as you are legally able to marry.
I got an interesting one for you marriage experts. I've never been married but my gals parents want me to show them a certicate indicating that I'm not married, in other words, single. I've heard of marriage certificates but I've never heard of "single" certificates. I'm from Canada so I'm a little slow, but, what the heck do they want and how do I get it for them???
