Still GFpoing to Learn Spanish
After reading reports from several forums about where I should go to learn Spanish and chase Chicas, I've decided to focus on Columbia and the Dominican Republic.
Of course the whole affair is still 9 months away and I'm open to additional info, so this isn't set in stone. Still, that's the way I'm leaning right now.
Thanks heaps to all of you whi offerd advice. I tried to PM thanks to all of you, but if I missed one or two I apologise and offer my appreciaition.
Any advice on how to find affordable (less than $900 US a month) apartments for the 10 weeks, advice on language schools or intructors (those that have already offerd advice on this I'll be in touch) and any other tidbits would be gladly accepted.
As I move closer to leraving I'll keep you all up to date.
Thanks
Colombian Barranquilla Carnival
I'm planning a trip to the Baranquillan Carnival.
Any info or advice would be much appreciated.
PS: Also if you have info on rental apartments in Baranquilla that would be great.
Thanks!
Wow 98% where u get your numbers?
[QUOTE=Bango Cheito]Yes sir, I'm here in beautiful Bogota Colombia. And NEVER going back.
I also have 15 years previously hanging out with the Colombian community in Toronto and NY where I previously lived. Most Colombians can not STAND being out of their country. I'd say like 98 or 99% of them.
It is definitely more dangerous than here, and I have the knife scars to prove it. But I still feel the positives far outweigh the negatives.
Let me just say once you get in the right circle here you'd be SURPRISED how open minded people can be.[/QUOTE]Im Medellin born Colombian and came to the US when I wuz 2 yrs old, Im 40 know and I know the Colombian culture in religion politics blah blah blah, and the majority and let me say this again the majority of Colombians want to live a better life financially and not worried about walking the streets in Colombia. And eye tell u from first hand that the majority would love to live and work here in the US. Again there is two type of society, well off and the poor. The poor always support communism and so forth like in Cuba, the poor love Castro regime, but the intelligent and wise successfull knows whats up and know that there is better life here in the states, 98% what a joke! I always hear different than a chica talking to gringos ear, eye know when I exchange info from the same chicas they luv to treat u and tell u what u want to hear, but eye get the real story, just keeping it real.
