Excellent post, Idahosa. We are recently retired and are leaving Northeast USA to start our next phase of life in Medellin next month. Your insights will be very valuable as we travel to discover new places. When deciding on our first stop of Medellin, we listed a number of factors important to us, but that list got very long. And the factors tended to be objective, without really scoring or identifying how importantly they fed into quality of life (e.g., “climate” vs. “delightfulness”). I believe that our long list of factors boils down to your short list when you really think about them. Our desires are very similar to yours, except for the ability to do business (been there… done that… retired). I look forward to having the time to really think about this short list more as we wander the neighborhoods of Medellin on our first stop.
