    I ended up spending 25 days in Medellin, I had a blast. I'm planning on moving there for 3-6 months soon.

      @@isabellerdgz I was curious about the digital nomad visa. Is it true you can only stay there 6 months out of a year? How do you get to stay there year round?

      @@tomkempf8460 I don't stay there year round, was only there for 6 months. I know some people who will leave for a week and come back after 6 months and don't have problems though it isn't technically the "right way to do it." I believe the digital nomad visa allows you to stay for 3 years though and the requirements are not hard to meet at all.

    Hey Great Video. And I also think about going to Medellin for a while. But I have heaters about increased violence and armed robbery and stuff like that against foreigners. Do you agree on that or how do you feel about the security situation right now ? Would be supper curious 😊

      Hey, thanks for watching. I was staying where foreigners don't really stay and I speak spanish fluently so I wasn't standing out. I also don't wave my phone around or wear a rolex. I was more cautious in places like el Poblado at night because thieves are smart, everyone knows foreigners are there so the money is there. I also took ubers at night. I wouldn't go out walking on lonely streets in the middle of the night with my phone out, speaking english. As long as you have common sense there you should be fine.

      lol ah gotcha. I'm interested on how you became a nomad. Definitely something I'd like to transition to in the future. I'll be tuning in.

      I started making money online when I was 16 so I had location freedom but got a remote job when I was 18. They let me work from home but only in Canada/US so I got a "work from roam" job September of last year so I could have that location freedom again.

      @@unrealenginedevplus You should be able to stay in Colombia for 6 months without a visa but it depends on your passport of course. Over those 6 months, I'd stay in airbnbs in a couple different neighbourhoods in the city you're interested in to see what you like. You should look for rentals once you're actually in Colombia - it's much easier than doing it from abroad.
