tim hickman7 comments on health insurance in Colombia

OK thanks Arthur (check my stuff on caribpro this month) and Atrevido. I assumed one had to be employed to take advantage of Coomeva but I'll investigate. Tim

tim hickman7 comments on Brief travel guide to Cali

overnite in Cali Just a note to say that I had problems finding a place in Cali that would take a small dog. So I turned to Art (arthurbrode at aol.com), of course. He came up with a reasonably priced hotel and I paid by PayPal - Art arranged everything.

driving from Ecuador to Santa Marta OK robi - thanks for very useful info as I may bypass Cartagena. I shall only travel during the day. Have same problem here in Ecuador re buses and trucks. Drive in the middle of the road at full speed, drivers sometimes half drunk - roads diabolical. My vehicle is diesel so maybe more economical.

Have not yet found anyone who has made the border crossing near Tulcan - the formalities, vehicle insurance, visas, hassles etc

Re Gator's comment OK thanks - I think all paper work, car insurance etc., visas etc for Columbia is available at the border although not quite sure how long all that is good for. I am heading up to the Santa Marta area, national parks, Minca and places.
