I rent out an unfinished 5 bedroom apartment in Laureles with balcony for $600 USD plus utilities… I’m writing this because the tiny apartments in this video are not really representative of deals you can get if you are staying long term.
As I always mention to each it’s own! Every expat I’ve ever met in Medellin uses Airbnb to rent out apartments and if they don’t there usually here for years vs passing through for 1-3 months
Glad you got a good deal tho!
@@1WorldWideWes I own three that I rent in Laureles, Poblado and Envigado… 3 and 4 bedrooms from $900-$3000/month. They are rented min 30 days only
Real facts
Medellin is a bit pricey in comparison to other places in Colombia. And Medellin is definitely on peoples radar . I currently have an apartment in pereira in a small town called Galecia and I have a brand new 3 bedroom apartment for about 250.00 a month. Btw is a gated community ( conjunto cerrado ) in a estrata 6 área . I had no gringo neighbors which I liked . Medellin is great for newbies or people who don’t speak great Spanish or it’s great if your money is long . But the gringos have driven up the cost of living there so it’s no longer a bargain
Yeah there are cheaper places, but as far as value, fun, nightlife, local places, MDE is still extremely tough to beat. Plus its nice to see black men traveling
I just got back from a two week trip for business. I already have my next trip planned in June & considering moving for a month at a time; throughout the year.
Yeah it’s definitely a place where I will always travel back & forth to
Great video Bro but you can pay less than half of that for a nicer condo in Thailand with far more amenities! Thailand is where I will be going in a year or two and I cannot wait!! Keep up the good work!
Much love ! Yeah I love Thailand myself, I hope to get back out there soon
Thailand is amazing, I've spent over a year of my life there. But you can't really compare the two just by the things you said. Yes you're right but there are other things to consider as well. For the average westerner Thai is MUCH more difficult to learn than Spanish. On the whole it is much easier to form genuine social bonds in Colombia than Thailand. There's also proximity to consider, among many other things. Colombia is also much less demanding when seeking a longer term visa than Thailand.
good video bro you have my like and subscriber🤩
Much love bro thank you!!
Im in Medellín for the first time right now and I am amazed!! This video was super helpful ✨
So glad you got something out of the video! Enjoy beautiful Medellin 🙌🏾
I only been here for 2 weeks and love the regular people, feel safe and love how cheap the food is. I would say if you are like me not into the sex culture you will not want to leave
AWESOME INSIGHT!!!
Very glad you enjoyed it! Hope it helps on your journey
What was the name of the place you stayed at in Jardín? I wanna stay there with my friends in August!
Are you still there? I'll be visiting in April and want to connect with English speakers that know their way around like you.
Sorry Im headed out soon, hope you enjoy Medellin!
Could you update us on the dress code for the city. You look very well dressed. Are hats, ripped jeans , or the way people dress in the US seen well over there. I was told pants hanging was a hard no go unless you are a homeless person.
I wouldnt say there is a specific dress code I would say don't flex via watches, jewelry, etc
🤜
I been on Rappi heavy!! LOL. but they deliver everything and its cheap. What part of Atlanta you from?
Man Rappi is dangerous lol. Its too convenient . Im from Southwest Atlanta
@@1WorldWideWes lol i hear that. And I'm outta east point..
@@taywilcox1374 glad you out here enjoying the city!!
@@1WorldWideWes preciate that bro . Be safe
🤩🤩what a nice place this is🤩🤩
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Hi I’m very interested in possibly moving to Medellin how did you find your apt?? I’ve been told to find a realtor or AirbNb
Airbnb is definitely the way to go if you are staying under 6 months. There are cheaper options through Facebook Marketplace too
Where do you prefer between playa del Carmen and Medellin. I am trying to decide which one to go to for about a month or two.
2 completely different places, I like Medellin more because Spanish is spoken in the majority of places and there is more to do. But playa del Carmen is a vibe & is good if you have never done a long term stay abroad
Go to Medellin, I went to Playa del Carmen and it didn’t really enjoy that much. Not much to do.
Playa del carmen isn't nearly as beautiful. If you need to be by a beach, I definitely recommend and it's pretty close to Tulum which is beautiful. With that being said, if you're planning on traveling over summer the red tide gets pretty bad to the point where you won't be able to swim.
I have wondered where you've been lately, I'm subscribed, but, I think because I was in Lima for a couple of months, I had all my notifications turned off and forgot to turn most back on. I only came across this video, because Colombia is where I am headed in February. Good to see you're still traveling and looking happy and well.
Thank you!! Hope you enjoyed Lima & lmk if I can help you on your journey in Colombia 🇨🇴
I enjoyed my time in Miraflores, I did venture into other neighborhoods like, Barraco, San Isidro and I spent time, as well, with a friend I met back in 2019 when I we were in Mexico. I stayed for a few days with my friend's mother where she has a huge home in La Molina. I'm hoping to visit said friend the later part of 2023 if I don't end up going to Albania for a visit and end up staying for an extended period of time. I plan to re-watch your Colombia videos again. I look forward to gaining more info before I visit.
"L-A" House ... bro you are in Colombia, it's "La House". 😂😂😂
Nice video tho I listened to the whole thing.
I appreciate you tapping in!!
Whats the name of the restaurant you love so much? Can't seem to find it. Ale beak?
Alambique!
With the income of an American or Europeans, in Medellín they would live like kings
I stay In Atlanta. You definitely underpriced what those apartments would be in Atlanta by at least 300 dollars.
Appreciate you watching!
Your videos just get better and better!! And so transparent, Thank you Wes!
Ah man thank you so much, this made my day!
Link to the cabin?
Im ready to move 😂 thanks for this vid
Of course, glad you enjoyed it!
Which city did you like more? Medellin or Lima?
Medellín easily!
But the food is much much better in Lima
@@1WorldWideWes wow, you got no doubts, sick. So which categories would each city win in based on your experience? So far it looks like Lima has better food.
Thank you for the guidance I’m also black, so I need another black man’s opinion since most reviews aren’t by us and our experience is rarely the same.
@@WenceslausMuenyi Lima also has better panoramic views and much better colonial architecture just saying.arquitecture
@@1WorldWideWes The colonial architecture is also way better
amazing video !
My dawg, i appreciate that!!
You’re driving prices up by giving too many comparisons. Just tell them the cost in Medellin.
This is more interesting 🤷🏾♂️
wow just amazing 😍😍😍
Thank you for watching! Happy new year!
fellow- ‘sup?- great ,🖐

Blessed travels bro. 🙏🏾
