Going to Buenos Aires.. pass on Colombia !

Making 1st trip to Buenos Aires to live for 3-6 months...definitely prefer Buenos Aires over Colombia...Have found the overall living situation/apt sublets to be much more interesting and $ reasonable...and hey its very civilized too !... You know... I worked as an expat for years in some very uncivilized places in Africa/Amazonia.... and really do not miss that lifestyle anymore... !

Right now.. taking these Practitioner/ Certification classes here in Texas to practice this (state of the art) mind-body energy medicine.. would like to move down to B.A....to start a practice (word&referral) treating clients out of my apt..its a very safe.. very effective protocol...that offers promise for healing ...But I really do not want to get involved with all that visa B.S.... and all the other bureaucratic mess down there ...In fact...that is the main reason I choose to live out of the States...too much govt manipulation and interference ...people need to be careful these days to insure their individual freedom and personal privacy....anyway wish me luck ?

we unfortunately have to move to the states for 3 years UGH! Probably the worst time to do so. I lived in the Colombian Amazon for a while, what'd you do there?

Actually worked down in the Peruvian Amazon near the Ecuador border.. worked for Western Geophysical and their client Petro-Peru...as a Safety man at a base camp on the rio Corrientes...a tributary of the Amazon...about 300 miles NW of Iquitos...I had this crazy idea in 1997 to return and try and co-produce an investigative documentary video...about the oil pipeline spills/breaks along the Corrientes and the impact on the habitat and tribal population...it was a mess!

Sorry for the slow response !
