Pulling the trigger. Medellin bound!
So, I decided about a week ago that, as of October 1, 2017, I'm moving to Medellin! I am fortunate enough to receive a lifetime benefit from the VA which will allow me to maintain (or improve) my current lifestyle -- as it has been- in the Washington DC area. I am vested for a 20 year retirement upon hitting retirement age with my employer. And, I have applied for Social Security Disability, which would also add to my non-taxable income. All in addition to the VA benefit. All this and I'm only 40 years old!
I recently (like a couple of hours ago) applied for the TP-7 (Retirement / Pensioner) temporary visa and am well on my way in that respect.
I have a real estate agent in Manizales, who has found a fully furnished 2 BR apartment with garage and utilities included in El Poblado (Calle 15 area) for $850/ month. Seems pretty nice based on photos. I will put down the deposit to hold the property on Friday. The real estate agent is a Colombian friend of a long-time American friend of mine who also lives near Manizales. I plan to take Spanish classes and work out like a beast while there, as. I won't need to (or be allowed to) work! I also want to explore more of the country, which I hope won't end up with me being on the side of a milk carton.
I intend to give it 3 months (till right before Christmas). I will then try living on the North Coast of Dominican Republic (Puerto Plata-Sosua-Cabarete) and compare the two. However, by March, I believe I will be back in Medellin for good!
I will travel to and from the States once per month to spend time with my minor children.
Prior to making this decision, I planned a mongering trip to Bogota and Medellin from Aug 30-Sep 7. It will now, also double as a general orientation to the area from a more substantive point of view.
I am interested in any candid advice on the initial relocation based on personal experiences. Are there any expat groups that meet regularly to swap stories and ideas?
I hope it will be easier than I think to transition from prepagos to normal girls. I would prefer standing, meaningful relationships to the random hookups with prepagos. If that's possible with so much eye candy!
For those who live in Medellin. How much do you allot per month for a mongering budget? I think that will be my biggest challenge!
