Residency And Citizenship In Colombia

July 1, 2011:

"Kathleen, I'm finding your recent writings about Colombia very interesting. Because of my father I may have dual citizen potential in this country.

"If you or your team has any legal contacts who could help me to explore the possibility of citizenship in Colombia, I would be grateful to receive them."

--Tai C., United States

"Kathleen, I really enjoy reading your comments and great advice. I found your excellent website as I was arriving in Chitre, Panama, some time ago. You have been correct all along about the beauty and positive future of Panama.

"Last year I was transferred to Paraguay, which I'm finding to be the most interesting of the countries in Latin America. Not yet for investment, but as a place to spend time.

"Paraguayans are not Latin Americans or South Americans, but Paraguayans. I live in Bahia Negra in Alta Paraguay, which borders with Bolivia and Brazil. This is the gateway to the great Wetlands.

"It seems now that I am to be transferred to Barranquilla, Colombia, to work with the victims of the recent floods. So keep your great reports coming. They make my day.

"I promise to return to Medellin once I'm back in Colombia. I lived in Medellin for 10 years. The Paisa is a hard-working Colombian...like former President Uribe!

"Have a tinto to greet each day."

--Bob A., Paraguay
