Hello, As a native English speaker, there is no shortage of work as an EFL teacher in the many language schools here - and it can be quite well paid. If you want to be earning at the higher end of the scale, I would strongly recommend that you come ... Read More


Any advice is appreciated!!! by brainzzz

Brainzzzz, I think your nerves are perfectly justified and normal even if they stem from paranoia to some extent. Yes there will be some aspects of Colombian culture that will take some getting used to. I have been here just over a year and I ... Read More


Does anyone use VoiP? If so, I'd love to know what isp you use? by cjb36
New to Bogota and need to get internet service asap to do my work. The new wifi sticks that go on the 3G band don't work with VoiP. Anyone using VoiP, like vonage, I'd love to hear from you! Short of that, if any one knows of a situation where ...

Hi CJB.. Glad to hear that you have gotten it sorted. Though I am a little confused by how mine was just a case of plug and play with my English Vonage number and how you have had trouble. I had absolutely no trouble or need to have any ports ... Read More

I am not sure what you mean by sharing my service with etb?? I have 6mb/s connection through the phone line - DSL. I pay more or less 85,000COP per month but the package includes the telephone line rental as well as unlimited calls in Bogota and ... Read More

Hello, I use Vonage to provide me with an English phone number for family and friends to call me on. I am currently signed up with etb for my internet service. You cannot use an internet dongle to pass the vonage line through as you need a physical ... Read More


6 Months in Bogota by GuestPoster1900
since my family and I arrived, many things were a bit difficult especially for me, even when speaking the same language. bogota seems to be a bit special but eventually things got better, I think since I started this life of °µÍø½ûÇøriates, making ...
