I want to spend 2 or 3 months in Latin America this winter and improve my Spanish. Right now I'm not fluent but I can probably manage most situations with sign language and planning ahead.
I don't want to just travel around staying in hostels. I'd prefer to base myself in a relatively inexpensive, liveable city with good weather and do little trips from time to time. I guess renting is the way to go? I was thinking of somewhere in Colombia.
Anyone got experience of doing something similar or any suggestions?
I lived in Colombia for a year, what do you want to know?
There are tons of vids on youtube re living in Colombia. Best research resource.

where were you based?
How easy was it to find somewhere to live and set yourself up? How good was your Spanish?
And anything else relevant, thanks

Bogotá, pretty easy via compartoapto.com
My Spanish was ok when I arrived and fluent when I left
