Tom in Santa Marta — 67, retired Air Force, 2 years in

Tom Walker, 67, Air Force retired, been in Santa Marta 2 years now. Came after my wife passed; it was time for a change. Santa Marta surprised me — quieter than people expect, beach is right there, healthcare has been excellent. VIP member, happy to be in the Inner Circle. Pleased to meet everyone.

Hi Tom,

New member Todd in Maryland (have house in Santa Marta and looking to move full time in a few years). You said health care has been excellent there. Glad to hear it . . . I have read mixed reviews of Santa Marta health care opportunities compared to bigger cities. Would like to touch base with you sometime.
