- What does $20 get you in Medellin, Colombia in 2021? In this video I will be taking you all around the city to show you just how far we can stretch 20 USD in the beautiful city of Medellin, Colombia. We will start this journey off in the El Centro area of Medellin before eventually making our way over to the El Poblado area, which is the most popular among foreigners who visit Medellin! Throughout this $20 challenge we will get our hands on some incredible Colombian street food, some micheladas, and even tip some local street performers!

Hey Guys! I hope you enjoy this video through Medellin! Please make sure to watch it in HD as it was filmed with a GoPro for safety reasons! Looking forward to hearing from you all! 🙏🏻
It was very good filming with the GoPro
If you get any friend tell them who will they vote Uribe or Petro if they vote for Uribe they like to steal and they are dishonest because they like living in shit in poverty and they like to steal
Betadine or Bogota which one is better which one is safer which one has more to do
Betadine or Bogota which one is
@@darrelllockett9721 there is NO city called Betadine where is the at
Thanks for inviting that young man to sit down for a meal, when we visit relatives in Colombia, we do the same thing. There are so many people going over into Colombia from Venezuela for a better life, and something as simple as buying them a meal really helps them out. There was a period of time where it was the other way around, where struggling Colombians left for a better life in Venezuela. This was never forgotten and Colombians are more than happy to repay the favor.
Thanks so much for enjoying the video! I appreciate the support so much!
I love the way you helped the young man from Venezuela and donating money to the dance group at the red light. Thank you!
Thanks a lot Jim! I appreciate you supporting my work bro!
Sure, he'd never give a dime to any of the window washers who hustle before the tolls to enter the Lincoln tunnel in NYC. But hey, Gen Z tourists - cheap eats, drinks, living off mommy & daddy for big ticket items.
"dry humid weather" it can't be both lol
You bought that guy a meal. You gained a sub. Thank you for being a great human being.
The drink is called "Guarapo" it has lemon but the difference to a lemonade is that it's based on sugar canne juice, directly extracted from the plant. Unique flavours you will only experience over there 🇨🇴
Wow thank you so much for sharing that!
I just got from Medellin last month and fell in love with that drink. Isn’t it also called agua panela?
@@kingarthurj agua Panela is made of already processed sugar cane blocks (unlike guarapo that is extracted from plant itself) and it does not contain lemon.
@@kingarthurj agua panela is actually a little bit more brown because the sugar is brown! very similar tho as they both have lime
I thought it looked like sugar cane like in Thailand
I'm surprised this video only has 65,000 views so far. This is one of the MUCH better videos showing off Medellin and it is well filmed. Super helpful info as well!
My husband and I live in MX and have recently decided we will go to Medallín next August, so we have been looking up info. This is the kind of video I like, no over-dramatizing things when you find something you're not used to (or sketchy LOL), just showing what you came across. Excellent video, thank you for sharing!
Con cuidado por la parte del centro, demasiado peligrosa, principalmente en la plaza Botero. ! Todo lo demás muy bueno .
You’ll love Medellin. There’s the rock to climb, outside of Medellin. But try the cable carts to climb the mountain in Medellin
I'll be there in August! The whole month
Great video! No nonsense, frills, drama... just how it is! Espanol es mucho bueno!
It's amazing how our US Dollars is worth in Colombia, I handed out lot of one bills to some homeless and needed people it makes you feel good to your heart ❤
I did the same on my way out with the pesos I converted from USD. Figured I can’t use this back in the states so I literally walked around giving the money to anyone in need who asked
Did that too....then they swarmed us at a strip club later that night all geeked out on drugs....so I don't help the homeless anymore
@@TheresTyrannyAfoot lack of common sense... its about knowing how to help people out and where...not throwing money all over the place in a dodgy area... it could've happened anywhere in the world tbf
Next time buy them food or clothing instead like this guy did for the kid, by giving money it's only making them suffer more.. unfortunally much of the money ends up as crack money (bazuco) or it exarcevates security for other visitors that are not as willing as you of handing out money in the open to everyone that asks... they end up expecting just because you are foreign.
@@guilletiger lack of common sense is replying to post you had minimal context of....
Sometimes you come across a video that is interesting in many ways. Yet despite this being a simple tour in an interesting country, I find the creator pleasant to watch, and he talks with a good pace. So yeah i like this. So once again a great channel to explore. Well done 👍
I visited Bogota and Medellin in October 2019 but spent more time in Medellin, as much as i really love the city, the weather and its people. I left Medellin with heavy heart after witnessing the poverty. I witnessed 16 year olds girls engaging in prostitution at parque Lleras. I know it's easy said than done but I wish there's a sustainable sulotion to this problem. I've sponsonred several Venezuelan families at the start of the pandemic for a few months but i also lost my job at some point because of the restrictions. Thanks for sharing your blessing. I hope more poeple will do the same.
Greetings from Saudi Arabia
Beautiful video I really enjoyed it. Also I am glad that you bought some food for that man it's very kind of you. May God bless you 🙏.
Thank you so much! I hope to visit your country someday!
That was down with it man. They did their thing . Show more of the street performers. You got a good product.
Thanks bro!
Nice video dude...the boys performing at the street light are also from Venezuela....gives you an idea of what life is like in Venezuela... Medellín is pretty safe, been there 8 times since 2015....but haven't been there since the Venezuelan migration which unfortunately have made the city somewhat unsafe...sadly they are struggling to survive anywhere they go...but I Medellín and its people are amazing...love it....
I very much enjoyed the walking tour and narration. I was in Medellin vicariously and it was helpful. I also appreciate the Spanish text, part of the immersion in the Latin culture. Thanks!
It's really fun watching you, I am planning about traveling to Colombia, keep on doing this great job
Me too next summer!
Great video, Im actually heading to Medellin and Cartagena for the first time on sunday, and your video helped me a lot .
I'm so glad to hear that! I hope you have an amazing time! Weather should be good this time of year!
Terrific job ! I just subscribed. When I travel I figure on at least 100 US dollars a day for food drinks and entertainment. But I see 20$ can go far. Unfortunately my Spanish is limited and the locals see me coming a mile away and the price usually works against me. As an example your day would have cost me easily 60$ . Keep up the good work!
I commend you for helping those in need. The Lord will bless you abundantly for it. Thanks for the video. *subscribed*!
Video was great Chris please continue to do these videos
Thank you so much! ❤️

I just ran into that venezuelan kid from the restaurant in el poblado. He was pretty excited to see the video
May you have a successful journey, God willing, with Naseeb
Thank you 🙏🏼
You would make a terrific guide. Very informative and real life adventures in the city. I also love ❤️ your passion to help those in need. You are A true humanitarian.
Thank you so much for the kind words! ❤️
Have a great rest of your week!
Bro your a legend👌 i like the fact that you help the people in need, i hope fellow travel vloggers watch your video's and see this as a lesson 💪 god bless you 🙏🙌
thx for helping that kid bro
Good hearted, idol Chris! It's shows your genuine trademark of having a high EQ+SQ (emo.& spiritual intelligence) - people admire you for being a natural loving person, a truly unique Chris ❤
Love your journey from Serbia to Mexico, Colombia and now Venezuela ❤
Your streets, food, places, engagements in your vlog simply amazing, full of energy, humor, optimism, honesty - highly recommend for everyone. I am just bit sad why you only got 40k subs in here. I hope you explore the Philippines 🇵🇭 and for sure, your subs will hit 500K, why? Filipinos are all over the world, especially OFW (overseas foreign workers) for years, and misses their 700k islands!
Be safe, idol Chris. Philippines love you ❤🇵🇭
I don't like most big cities, but I love Medellin! Some of the smaller pueblos outside of the city are awesome, too. Colombia is a beautiful country.
Yes! It is special forsure! Thanks Dan!
You videos are so nice and clear. I love Medellín and plan to go next April with my Colombian husband who is from Itagui. It will be my 1st time, can’t wait!
That kid looks like a good kid. hopefully he stays out of trouble and keeps his head up & conquers medelin.
Nice of you to buy the young man a meal, my trip in Mexico I bought a few meals and helped the elderly. It doe's not hurt your wallet to help when someone is in need. I enjoyed the so called bad side of town, but then Los Angeles has just as dangerous and deadly areas. The art is amazing and the buildings beautiful and the people seem nice. I would be on edge and guard in the city, but that is life and travel in these areas of the world. Sad it costs $10 dollars for a woman in the red light district, this is very sad straight up man. the food looks great and all the carts and what you have eaten looked so good. Nice video and educational about the real life struggle of the Columbian and Venezuela people who live their. Blessings to the people🙏🏽
Thank you so much Rodger! Always love hearing your stories! Appreciate the love as always bro!
Thank you for reading my stories, they are genuine from the heart. Peace my man and god be with you.
Wow thank you for this video!! Looking forward for Colombia!
Thanks so much for watching! Hope you enjoy your trip!
Man, thank you for the vid, very educational. Thank you for sharing the love by buying that young man a meal. I hope it comes back to you ten fold.
Super super helpful! Thanks for making this amazing video!
Glad it was helpful!
You explained the country and the city so well , translating the costs of everything like the drinks and foods taxi , and everything else there was so helpful and I felt I’m traveling there also enjoyed feeding the boy beautiful thank you .
Parviz
Parviz thank you so much!
i spent 3 weeks in Bogota last may,, coming back to colombia to spend the winter,, i hope to check out Medellin as well,, my favorite was to see you helping the young man out with a meal, i must admit i did that type of thing daily and it is a good feeling when you can share your good fortune
Damn the content just keeps getting better. Good job bro!
Yo thanks a lot brother! I appreciate you big time!
Just got back to the U.S last week. after 3 months in Colombia and 3 months in Mexico. Immediately bought a ticket for Jan back to Medellin I missed it too much I had to go back 😭
I understand the feeling, whenever I go somewhere other than where I live (I'm from the US), I just want to go back. I'm going to go visit Medellín, Guatapé, Bogotá, and Cartagena by next summer.
Este video está genial! Espero poder ir a conocer Medellín este año.
Saludos desde Bogotá, nueva suscripción.
Muchas gracias Yenny!!!
Someday I’d like to visit; it’s amazing to see the generosity and the appreciation received. I help the unfortunate here periodically too but obviously the dollar doesn’t go far here - a few time they would scoff at the 10 bucks I gave them stating “that’s it?” as if it was insulting.
I really enjoyed watching your video. Very informative. You tell us the prices and give us advice. 👏
I hope to go there someday. Thanks for the videos.
I lived here with my family for awhile now loving it
Your videos are awesome, the quality is great even with the GoPro.
I love the way how you help people, you're such a lovely person.
This place looks scary and unsafe, please take care 💕
Thank you so much Daniela! Your kind words mean a lot to me! Have a great rest of your week!
Good vid Chris, great work with the GoPro. Saludos!!!
Hey thanks so much Mauricio!!!
Thanks so much for the helpful video - both where to go and where to be aware of safety concerns! Heading to Medellín with a group of friends in a few weeks and grateful to have this info.
keep up the great travel videos, good job of giving us a flavor of the city
Hey Chris always enjoying the videos, you make the best content to watch. It's easy to chill and enjoy. It would be great to visit and plus is it looks like great food & seems cheap on a budget
Hey thanks a lot Justin! I always love seeing your comments! Man it is so great out here and as you saw very affordable! I hope you get the chance to visit one day!
@@Travelwithchris I sure hope so, it looks amazing
I couldn't even notice it was filmed with a GoPro! Looks great!
thanks so much! That makes me happy!
Performance is great and funnest I've ever seen
Great video. I like the way you presented the city of Medallion and the drinks and food available. The best part is you bought a meal for the guy cleaning car windshields. Its great when people help people. We need more people to what have done. After watching your video, I would definitely want to visit Columbia and see the sites and eat at the restaurants.
Bless you for helping the young man. In my country Trinidad, similar circumstances with most Venezuelan people...so unfortunate.
Amazing video, man! Thanks for sharing! My favorite part was the dancers. I would love to visit... but leery of the sketch element.
this is an amazing video, I appreciate you showing EVERYTHING that’s going on, not just the nice or the bad.
Thanks a lot Juan!
Nice of you bying that guy a meal...I subscribed cause u have a good heart
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Thanks!
Mad props for buying that kid some food bro! Awesome stuff.. get yourself and Itamar a couple beers on me! 🤙😄
Stay in aussie the stinking land
Man dude thank you so much for always supporting me! It means the world to me that you watch all of my videos! Enjoy the rest of your week bro!
شكرا لمساعدتك ودعمك المالي
I'd like to have a wingman like you for my first time in Colombia. Awesome video!
Excellent sound! Really enjoying it! Loved your series on exploring Serbia too! Never been to SA but have had friends from here & Peru. Also friends who have lived & vacationed in Chili!
I hope you get that chance to visit someday!
Chris u are a very kind person ! May god bless you !❤❤❤
Thank you 🙏🏼
You Are Giving Good Knowledge To People Thanks For Everything 👍👍 Looking Forward To More Videos Like This 👋👍
I liked how you put the funds on the screen an how much things cost
Great video and God bless you for helping that kid!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Go pro vlog was fine. Nice job.
Very good break down on the currency. Love it
Thanks a lot bro!
I watched from beginning to end . I really enjoyed the walking tour … and thank you for helping the teenage boy out . As a Mom…. I know I would want someone to look out for my child … so thanks from all the Moms !!
🇨🇴
Great vid. Good of you to help that poor kid.
Great video! I'm glad I watched this!🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thanks so much!!
Thanks for sharing this information and this video I enjoyed it
Nice video, Columbia is definitely on my bucket list of countries to visit! ;)
Yes!!! Everybody has to visit!!!
Great to see you buy a meal for that kid. I do exactly the same thing in the Philippines... I never give money to any of the street kids because you don't know where the money goes to which more than likely gets handed over to someone in charge of them.... or the kids use that money to buy drugs in order for them to not get hungry... it's alot better to give them food than money. Whenever I go out to eat, I always tell the waiter to pack up my leftovers (I always order too much food, haha)... so I can give it to the street kids selling flowers or begging for money at the stop lights.
You said that the kid wanted to go back to Venezuela because life is hard in Colombia? I think life in Venezuela would be even harder especially for a kid his age. There's little to no work available in Venezuela which is the main reason why alot of people from Venezuela go to Colombia for an opportunity to find work and send money back to Venezuela for their families. I noticed ALL of the girls selling coffee in Colombia are from Venezuela.
You feed them your left overs and are proud of that. Damn.
@@woofolliesmydog8628 bruh I was about to say that 😂. I mean her leftovers is still better than nothing but damn if you gonna help them buy them a full meal not something you feel full to finish. Especially not to happily brag on here Fs.
My go-to meal in a small restaurant like that is the fried trout that comes with all that and the soup is usually a fish soup. And of course the juice. Less than $4 USD... can't beat it. My favorite is Delicias De Mi Tierra Pacifica in downtown near the large Exito.
I'll have to try that next time I'm back! Thanks for watching!'

Chris
Your invitation to that guy for food was extremely touchy gesture
Guys on Zebra crossing was another great stuff God bless you Chris
Keep it up you are doing great I am planning to visit Medellin in September finally this hostel was another great informative gesture from you. It shows you are emotionally intelligent man
Hope to see somewhere in this tiny world
Enjoy Bro
Thanks so much for the kind words! I hope you have an incredible trip!
@ Captain Singh Devender Singh. Not so touchy. He couldn't spare a $100 .00 dollars to buy food for the other people that was with that young kid. That show how miserable a human being can be.
I'm a frequent flyer of Medellín. I love it their but covid has me stateside but I will return in 2022. Video was great, I've seen allot of what you recorded. Good job and have a good time tonight celebrating the New Year.
Thank you so much! Happy New Year to you as well! Definitely go back and visit soon! Tourism is needed again!
Good looking out for the kid, much respect 🙏🏻 and 👍🏻
Thanks so much! 💪🏻
Nice, informative video! Thanks
Love the content 👌 been bench watching all your videos 📹
Edgar you're the man!!!! I appreciate you!
Your welcome Bro
Hi, enjoyed your video, we are going in March 2023', we will spend 3 nites in Medellin, would like to check out a few of the places you highlighted, tho my Spanish is not very good.
You won't have a problem at all, especially in the touristic areas! English is well spoken! Enjoy your trip
Great video! $20 goes so far. Good on ya for purchasing that kid a meal too. Go Pro is excellent and discreet.
Thank you so much for watching bro!
I never been to Columbia but I have plan to visit and thanks for your video take care
Karim hope you make that trip soon! It is amazing!
I'm happy to bought for him free food
God bless you 👌👌👌
Thank you so much!
Love the Botero's. They are everywhere.
Chris, I always like your kindness and compassion providing a meal for the hardworking kid in need. It goes a long way. I would not feel safe where there is prostitution and drugs. That is also a global problem.
Enjoy and be safe.
Lots of love from KINGSTON, JAMAICA 🇯🇲❤ 💕 🇯🇲❤. 🇯🇲❤. 🇯🇲❤ 🇯🇲❤ 💕 🇯🇲❤.

Dude said “the last thing I can’t afford to lose is my camera” forget the camera man don’t lose your life lol that’s what’s more important! But in regards to the video dope idea and concept! Love everything about it! Definitely unique and different! Keep them coming
ahahah so true! Forgot about that in the heat of the moment! 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️ (Hopes my mom doesn't read this) lol Appreciate you!
@@Travelwithchris lol not a problem man! Looking forward to more content!
😂😂😂
Well, the best channel in the world
love your videos bro thank you. please keep em comin! one thing to note, you said that kid had been there for 5 months, but in your convo with him, he said he'd been there for 3 years. just a thought.
Yes it sounded wrong but he had been here in colombia for 3 years, 5 months in Medellin! He just got here from Bogota :)
@@Travelwithchris makes sense!
Colombia is a country with multiple parks with exotic animals, we welcome you and get to know them.
Yes!!!
Colombian people are so nice!!!! I'm so excited to visit, thank you so much for your tours they have helped me understand and learn a lot :)
Yes they are!!! You're going to have an amazing time!
Thank you bro for your effort to show us how is Colombia
Very be careful and last time you said you want to get Venezuelan visa I hope you and your girlfriend or wife to be safe always
God bless you and gladys
Hey thank you very much! I will be heading to Venezuela very soon! Thanks for the good wishes!
