Hi from Dallas - Maybe moving one day...

split my time between Dallas and Bogotá. My wife is from Bogotá, but we currently live in Dallas and plan to move there soon. Recently, her brother and I started a meal‑prep company in Bogotá. I’m here to learn from expats who are living full‑time in Colombia.

Greetings. I'm a native New Yorker now residing in Orlando, Florida. I will be visiting Bogota in November for around 9 days. Is there anyone that can meet up with me to show me around?

Hey Joshua, this community is fairly new, so you may want to ask your question every couple of weeks as it grows.

Hey Brad, Welcome! We do monthly dinners where you can meet other expats. There is no agenda to the dinners other than bringing like minded people together to meet.

Hi Brad! We are also in Dallas, Lake Lewisville, to be specific. We are considering future retirement elsewhere. We haven't really landed on any place yet, so we will watch and learn from y'all.

Hi Brad, greetings. I'm from Dallas and Miami... and as of February I moved to Bogata as my base. Although I can only live in Colombia 50% of the time because the tax situation is outrageous.

The other half the time I am mostly in Dallas, sometimes in Miami and rest traveling south America and Europe.

Really loving Bogota... I'm in Dallas for August and wow did I get that rotation wrong... 68 and cool in Bogota and here is 103 to 104 this week, no clouds pure intense sun... yikes.
