Off topic, but yes. I think us lookers need to consider other places. The UN just authorized another mission in Columbia to monitor the laying down of arms. This is a plus and maybe no is a good time to get in before total stabilization. {Source: http://www.securitycouncilreport.org/monthly-forecast/2017-07/colombia.php }
Also, Ecuador scores high on best places to retire international. Was #1 a year or 2 ago and I think is #3 or 5 now. Worth exploring.
After leaving MN for Miami, I thought I would retire there. Nope. Too many Dominicans in Miami! LOL, jk.
Welcome Tony. May your wildest dreams come true.
