Good Bye Poor but Happy - thank you!

Do not expect me to reply to this post when you read it..or even see it..however since I came to find out about Colombia - and not have to put up with newbie trolls on this board, I am leaving this board.

I have asked Peter to delete my account.

Calipro..I will be looking for you to have that "beer" you want in Cali...hope to see you there! Really - I do - I really hope I am lucky enough to see you in Cali this year, it will be the highlight of your trip guaranteed. ...

Cali Feria - Miami style....

For those of you who love teh Cali Feria - Miami will try to mimic as best it can the Cali Feria in Miami on Dec 19th 2004.


visit www.califeriausa.com


Sure, it by no means can compare, but for thsoe gringos out there who want a training session before they set foot in Colombia - here is your chance.


I wonder hoe good or bad Calipro would do at the Cali feria in Miami...not good IMO based on the fact that the Calenas in Miami ar ...

ok...let's hear from the ladies now.......

We have all recently seen the postings regarding older men with younger women...but what about womne who are 40-something dating guys who are 20-something?

How is that viewed in Colombia? I am a perfect example..I am extremely attracted to women older than me - yet I am in my late 20's.....so, if I were to date - let' say a forty-five yearl old lady, and I clearly look 24 years of age apperance wise..how will that be viewed? Will it have the same impact as girls 25 dating a guy 45 ...

How about creating a Chat room here?

I think this board has enough people posting to create a chat room and have everyone join in as they please...or maybe someone here can create a public chat room and invite everyone in tonight...to talk about Colombia and other things related ;-)

Thoughts? ...

I am not Colombian...but

I love Colombia sooo much. It seems I cannot ever have a trip to Colombia where I am not welcomed with open arms and lot sof hugs and smooches!

My dream (and now fully thought out plan) is to have a house, 2 horses, a jeep , a doberman pincher and a beautiful Colombiana remindinh how much she loves me every-time teh sun greets us in teh morning thru our bedroom window.

I still love my country USA, and my neighborhood..Brooklyn, New York...but I have never lived lif ...

all of these pictures recently posted are nice.....

I wonder if I should post my pic?? Humm...let's see what the ladies here say....

Giving up on Avianca!!

I don't know what everybody elses' experience is flying Avianca, but I have to say that they are totally losing my business as of today forever.

It all started with me getting charged 3x for a first class trip to Colombia on my card, and sure after 100 phone calls with everybody but the CEO of the company for the last 2 weeks, I now have to go their office in Miami in person to claim a refund...ARE YOU FRIGGIN KIDDING ME!!! Why do I have to take the time out of my busy schedule fo ...

For my next Colombian adventure.....

I plan on visiting Villa de Leyva New Yeart's week with my novia from Medellin first time there)...planning on staying at the Duruelo hotel. Anyway, I want to visit the Lake Tota ..is that far away once in Leyva? What would be the best way to get there? I'd love to see that train and the background lake with my own eyes - it looks spectacular based on locolombiano's picture.

Also, how do I get to the hot springs in Paipa?

Final question: How is the weather in Vill ...

Medellin Airlines info..

Hi All, there is an airline I vaguely remeber seeing at the airport named " ADA - Aerolinea de Antioquia" or something like that.

Does anyone know their website, and any inside iformation as far a how it is to travel with them? ...

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

I've heard mention of tehse 1 month teaching courses...can someone shed some light in this? I'd like to know what level of merit this will have at the Colombia teaching centers. ...

Best placed to be New Years week in Colombia (besides Cali)

I know that Cali is famous for starting "La Feria de Cali" on X-mas day until January 3rd or so every year - however, I can tell you that I went last year and was not impressed, for the main event of the so called Feria was a bunch of people riding on horses called a Cabalgata up teh street - yaaaaaawn. If it were not for the "Tascas" I would have left elsewhere...the tascas are a bunch of outdoor restaurants under a big tent in the middle of the city....aside from the great food, incredible ey ...

Why do the women change once in the USA...as I am told?

Lately I find myself talking about my Colombia trip at least 3x a day to co-workers. family, friends and now most recently; a neighbor.

I find it interesting that 2 cases have been presented to me on how Colombian women change from the beautiful, nurturing, affectionate and loving woman they are in Colombia to a bitchy, rude, selfish, and sometimes unfaithful Americanized version of themselves once they live in USA.

I had my neighbor pour his life out to me on his n ...

What shall I do?......I love travelling to Colombia!

Ok...I just got back from a trip to Colombia..and of course, I have now a bug in my ear to just head down to Bogota for Thanksgiving weekend and visit my novia once again since I live in Miami and it is fairly eassy for me to travel. However, I have some Colombian friends that caution me very higly against travelling so quickly as not to be perceived by local authorities for wrong doing or trafficking by travelling back-n-forth so quickly between the US and Colombia. Surely, I have nothing to do ...

Places to watch the NFL games while in Colombia....
