Olaf comments on Living in Colombia

School Recomendation for Bogota Hi,

I'm half Colombian and spent two of my high school years in Colombia. My experience there was incredible and now I'd like to give my 13 year old daughter a similar experience.

My wife are thinking of sending her down there for a semester or two (I have plenty of family down there). Any recommendations on a good bilingual school? Unfortunately I have done a poor job in teaching her Spanish and I don't think she could survive in a non bilingual school as I did.

Nueva Granada seems ok but their web site sucks and I can't learn very much about it. She's not the world's greatest student because she's unorganized so a strict school with nice and unpretentious kids would be great. Would also want her to interact with as many Colombians as possible so the lower the American to Cololmbian ratio the better.


Thanks,
Olaf
