    Numbers from the USA: In 2023, the FBI recorded a rate of 363.8 violent crimes per 100,000 people, down from the 2022 rate of 377.1 violent crimes per 100,000 people. Every year, 117,345 people are shot in the USA out of them 16,651 are murdered. 76,725 people survive gunshot injuries. VS Colombian numbers: In 2023 around 25.7 cases per every 100,000 inhabitants, which translates to around 13,500 people losing their lives. In general Americans abroad are pretty much safer anywhere than at home by ten fold than staying at home in the US. Traveling from another (third) country the safety in Colomia is very high, while the US in general has far higher risk potential and in a global scale the highest numbers in terms of violent death.

    Is Colombia safe, Luke Travels the World. Hey. I'm watching you. I see you. That is half the battle right? Getting seen. LOL...... I like what I see. Don't think you are smarter than a pick pocket. Flour in your hair. These are great tips. I recently did a video about Colombia myself. Very cool. Very cool. You did a good job with this one. Great video! I have just subw3scribed to your channel. So congrats, you just gained another one. I am an advocate on this platform for engaging with others and supporting one another. And returning love and reciprocating feedback. I think that kind of community on here is what we need. Hey, if there were a lot more people like me on here, you might have an extra 400 friends and fans to your channel, right now. Extra. That is the community I'm encouraging people to help me build. I truly am being sincere when I write that. I am a content creator, just like you. Let me get half the battle too. Who knows you might even like one of the videos there.

      @lukehobbs3177 2 месяца назад

      Be VERY careful in Cartagena as it's known as the worst for the dangers I mentioned for tourists. Don't let others know your traveling solo. If you get the chance I'd explore other areas of Colombia as well. Cheers!

    Great video but you can't really compare such different places for value as HK is hyper expensive in terms of property per sq2 whereas other place in the desert where property is cheap! Better to split the videos into 2 seperate ones dealing with each place/country. Still a channel though - you desert 100k+ subs easily with your style/originality of content.

    The cup of hot water can be drunk if you want - it's just hot / boiled water - nothing unusual about it. Some people choose it to rinse their cutlery / bowls, using it not because it isn't clean already but because in some places when they've washed the dishes, the dishes can still have some *some* residue/soapy taste of washing up liquid/detergent still on them. It's a carry over from when places had to wash 100 plates/cutlery etc all at once and dunked them a big soapy container etc. But that's increasingly rare these days as most places will water rinse everything afterwards - just depends on the place.
