traveler803 says on Oct 16, 2007, 10:16: Rikito...thank you for your post regarding my question about property ownership. I'll be in Bogota next week and would like to talk with people who are straightforward and know what they are talking about regarding US citizens owning Colombian property. Do you know of anyone in Bogota?? Thanks...Daryl

lampltr says on Feb 2, 2008, 09:09: Rikito, was up the road from you for a few weeks but laid low due to the situation where I was and the ERG actively probing around where I was. Was very interesting to say the least but I remained in the barrio. Only PBH'r I met was Lowell a few times, was a great time but short. I love the area and am working on securing a future there as we speak with the family. Definately got a great video of the valley area just up from Cartago off on the right (Pull-off). Did not remain long as I was attracting attention with me and my video camera. Hope to be back there later this year. Listen, we need to talk as we have much in common....do you have my email address? In the subject line enter Colombia, Armenia whatever so I can recognize it, thanks.
