Hi,
I'm Canadian from Montreal but have lived in Florida for the last 6 years. My wife ans I are thinking of moving to south america very soon...Oct 2009. Need some help to decide were to go...every area seams to have it's problems.We were thinking of moving to Medellin colombia,Costa rica,Argentina,Chile or anywhere else that is nice,safe and not to expensive.My wife's familly has scared her about Medellin being to dangerous...after some reserch I ask myself the same question. SOME ADVICE PLEASE.
We are very flexable about where we want to live but hear are some if my requirements:
-Must be fairly safe as long as you use some common sence
-Colder than south Florida yet not as cold as Canada
-We want to be near a decent size city not neceseraly right in it 30-40 min drive away is fine. (1 to 3 million people)
-want a nicely finished house (furnished) with a backyard for my 2 small dogs....hopfuly with a nice view for less than 1500usd/month
If anyone can help i would really appriciate it,Thanks in advance.
Language shouldn't be to much of a problem. I'm going to start learning spanish soon,but I already speak Italian and French which both help alot.
