- Cost Of Living In Medellin Colombia still very reasonable. Read more: wanderingtrader.com/cost-livin...
The cost of living in Medellin, Colombia is still quite low and many times one can find a very affordable stay. Anything from affordable accommodation, food, and even nightlife. Medellin, Colombia is one of the best places to live in the world.
Take it from me I have been traveling around the world now for roughly 6 years. I have lived in 12 countries across 5 continents as well. Living in Medellin, Colombia is one of the best places to live year round. There are a few places that are better at certain times of the year but you simply cannot find a city like Medellin, Colombia throughout the entire year.
When considering the cost of living in Medellin, Colombia the accommodation will be cheap especially if you are on a backpacker budget: You can also look to rent an entire apt with friends or colleagues. It will be much cheaper than staying at a hotel.
Between $300-$1500 for housing.
Food is also very cheap. You can have a chef come to the house and cook you very good food including Salmon, Shrimp, and Steak and you will spend between $200-$300 per month. This includes fresh veggies from the market as well that she picks up fresh every day. If you are going to eat out then obviously it will cost a bit more
Food: Between $200-$300 With eating out: $400-$600
If you are going to be doing little things like going to the gym, taking Spanish classes, and taking salsa classes then that would cost a bit more as well.
Gym: $30-$100
Spanish Classes: $10-$20 an hour
Salsa Classes: $10-$20 (private sessions)
My cost of living in Medellin, Colombia is very cheap. I purchased a 7 bedroom penthouse and my total expenses for the month are roughly $748. This includes all utilities, internet, and even the chef and maid monthly.
Would definitely recommend coming to Medellin, Colombia and experiencing the city. It is one of the best cities to both live in the world and also to visit.

As a paisa, I'm totally proud you are saying that Medellin is the best choice to visit more than 80 cities around the world. Thanks for visiting Medellin and of course, stay here.
***** Your welcome. It is a great city and it should definitely get better!
Great country, and awesome city. Kudos to the Paisas for being polite enough to hear my spanish and keep a straight face. (most of the time, lol!). Been there 18 times now. 4 of those times I purposely missed my flight and declared I wasn't going back to the USA. Met so many cool people there, they are so much fun. Medellin is a gem
+Jhovany Betancur S. Actually he said he has visited 80 countries, not cities. That's amazing, in a recent trip abroad I met an american who told me the same thing. He's been traveling for years and he has gone to 40 countries, but when he went to Medellin he fell in love with the city and is currently living there... I'm not from there, but it's nice to know our country is getting a better reputation with the time!
What are the names of some good real estate law firms there?
I love Medellin and tell all my friends about it. I have visited a few times but if I were to move there fresh as a green gringo here is what I would do. Rent a place in Poblado for 3 months. Take an immersion spanish class and commit to learning the language and culture. After 4-6 weeks you can branch out. I agree to learn to dance - salsa and other dances are integral to the culture. Also learn the music. If you work hard you can be fairly integrated in 2-3 months. During that time you will get to know the city and can look to move to a more local type neighborhood and really get the flavor of "La Ciudad de la Eterna Primavera."
Cool video. Being half Colombian myself, with most of family from Medellin, I know exactly what you're talking about. Colombia and Medellin are beautiful places that never get enough credit. I keep telling people how beautiful and safe it is, but people still assume that the excessive violence from the early 90s is still alive.
Agreed Dee Jimenez Thanks for the note
If it is any consolation, maybe there are some that still hold an unnecessary grudge off some hurt feelings by it, like their mind is still in the past. That does'nt affect me much, cuz I did not know allot about it's past I am still planing on going there, and I am very gringo (physical features-wise).
Let the idiots think it's dangerous! None of us need a gringo invasion like what happened in Brazil or Thailand!!!
My beautiful and amazing city
great video, thanks! I was an exchange student in 1979 and lived in Poblado. It was nothing like it is now!
very good post amigo.gracias
Sweet set up with an in house chef ! That sounds spectacular ! ~Amanda
so im moving. very soon. muchas gracias!
Very informative - good lookin out bro!
Straight-Up the "BEST" video on Colombia. My wife and I are planning to retire in 6 months. We are contemplating moving from the states back to Panama, or to Medellin, Colombia. We are on a constant search for information. We have a fluent command of the Spanish language and after living in the states for more than 25 years, I dear say that we have an angle on English, as well. I am sold on Colombia. Our goal is to get in now before others learn the secret and saturate Colombia as Panama is today. We discovered that cost of living is a lot less in Colombia vs Panama. Thanks for the information. God job!!!
Right now with the dollar being so high its a great investment
Very nice video my friend, I live here and everything you have said is right
Subway in León GTO Mexico, is very cheap and very fresh. I was astonished how good they were since I swore them off in Portland, Oregon a couple of years before I retired in 2013. Here in Costa Rica where I know live now I was in McDonald's recently where the Tico family in front of me had three meals and it was nearly $18 USD. I was treating two Ticos and mine was $22.
Congratulations, you're the 1st., person that could give me a reasonable itemized breakdown of all the people who say they have lived there for an specific amount of time. P.S. TY very much
+Curtis Person My pleasure my man
Ugh I can't wait to move back to Colombia next year...
hey i am thinking about coming to medellin to see my best friends i was wondering what is the best hotels to go to
Hi man, great video, how did you the background to display the text on your videos? To make it look like a presentation.
+Antony Stagg Video processing my man
Thanks for the information. subbed
thanks very much for the info going to cartagena soon
Hi from Chicago I was in Medellin in July I stayed in the Charlee hotel and Art hotel what other areas u recommend to stay other then el poblado
Laureles, Estadio, Envigado
Hey Marcelo, I messaged you before. Your info was good. I am now on my way to Medellin to study Spanish at EAFIT university for at least a year in less than 10 days. I am a little nervous but excited. I have a few questions: 1. Where should I take up salsa and bachata group classes? I am not a beginner as I have been taking classes in these styles for over 2 years.
2. What is the public transportation like? Is it easy to get around? For example, I want to live in Laureles but need to get to EAFIT everyday
3. What vaccinations do I need to take before coming to Colombia? I know I have to take the yellow fever vaccination.
+Samuel McElvenny There are a few places here where you can take the classes I don't have any specific names but you can look them up on the internet. There are private classes as well. I know a girl that could probably give you private classes.
2. Buses all over the city, taxis are very cheap $1/$2 depending on distance but never usually more than $3/$4. I always take Uber. There are buses that go from Laureles to EAFIT. Can also take metro.
3. Don't need any vaccinations.
And what is the weather like? Does it get really cold? Will I need to pack a huge parka or it warm throughout the year?
+Samuel McElvenny Cool at night never really cold. Light jacket would be fine although most times you won't need it.
Question parce, I would love to live in Colombia, Medellin. I actually will live there after I finished school but I need to know some information. How much in USD do you need a month to live there. Talking about a penthouse, car, gym, healthy foods and having fun in the city? Do you think $ 3.000 a month will be enough?
+TisRizky all the prices are in the video
I want to visit Medellin so much! I'm working on learning Spanish and I love the Paisa dialect:) I just like them so much because they are so affectionate and warm, just so friendly:) Also, the cost of living seems very reasonable!
+Constance Mote Oh thank you so much, yes we are kind, and our accent is the best :)
:) welcome
WanderingTrader, how's the situation there for English teaching? Is it fairly easy to land a job as an English teacher? Are salaries decent?
+Tony Angelino They are okay considering that they pay for everything including housing. Nothing to cry for according to English standards
+Diana Mcgovern Many cities in Colombia are quiet cheap (except Bogota). I would recommend Medellin it is still very cheap compared to international standards. It is one of the best places to live in the world.
can you help me! I cant rent it for tourism as well!
Why have you settled in Medellin, Colombia exactly??
I was actually surprised how expensive alcohol can be in Medelllin. From Supermarket will be hard to find Wine Bottle less than 10$. On the other hand if you go eat restaurants you can find 20 - 25$ bottles from high-end restaurants, 10$ Bottles from El Mercado del Rio. Best if you avoid all american or european products and try find something local or somewhere more close... Wine from Chile can be cheaper, Bacardi or Rum from Medellin is cheap.
Food is overall very cheap... We was buy local 1kg local fish from market, prize about 8$. All fruits, vegetables cost nearly nothing... In High End restaurant you can eat main courses for about 10 - 20$. Meat, fish in restaurants very cheap compared to any country I've been.
If you drink lot of alcohol I believe you can find cheaper places from Europe at least... Like Budapest (Hungary). As well if you don't like rain... Better choose another place, here it's lot of rain actually. As well lot of trafic every day. To speak spanish is quite mandatory if you want to stay longer period of time... You will learn of course, because you have to...
Hi Marcelo, Sam from Australia here. I am travelling to Medellin at the start of next year to study Spanish at EAFIT university. As I don't know anyone there, how will I go about renting whilst I am over there? I don't need to live in luxury. I'm cool as long as there is a bed, kitchen and bathroom. Is there a site to go to for expats to give info about renting there, because I don't want to spend all my savings on rent or get ripped off! What would you do?
+Samuel McElvenny I look on craigslist and the internet Sam. In terms of cost you will find a much cheaper place if you are renting from a local. Also keep in mind that local standards are a bit less than what the foreigners offer.
Hey Marcelo,
I will soon visiting colombia. I want to ask you some more questions you didn't answer in your video.
Is it possible to communicate with the people when you just speaking english?
Which clubs in Medellin is your favorite?
How much costs clothes there?
Are the people/girl very open or closed for tourists?
Thanks
ps: im from switzerland
Dj Jankay Many people speak English but not enough to rely on doing business. Would need to speak Spanish. Clubs are Ruana de Juana, Bendito Seas, Kukaramaka, Sinko. Clothes are very cheap compared to the states. Tourists are irrelevant people here are all around very open and friendly.
Great info about #Medellin from *****, and that personal chef, nice!!
Mark Wiens Thanks my man
Mark Wiens do u thank it's legit I'm a bit confused.
jimmy roberson Yes, legit info, he's a friend of mine.
Mark Wiens Thanks! 👍
Hey Marcello! Thanks for the video. Very helpful. I will be arriving in Medellin in about a month. Do you have advises on which (local) agencies to approach to have good rental deals for apartments or even house around the cities? (The ones that don't do gringo prices) Also, which area do you recommend most outside of Envigado and Poblado? Thanks! Keep up the good work.
+Yann Courtel check out casacol.co that's the only one I'd recommend
Thanks a lot! I'll have a look
Hey marchello hey what's up, I'm going to Medellin Colombia August 6th to the 9th in your opinion what is the best hotel to stay at location wise. I'm going with a few friends and we looking to party. Would love to stay somewhere close to the night life. . Look foward to hearing from u..
Jaime Jaramillo If you want to party stay in Poblado but if you want a more local experience stay in Laureles
Thx
I just need to find a nice penthouse that is 4 to 5 bedrooms and I'll be sent. I probably only need four. I'm even considering looking an hour or so outside the city because that may be better for my children and the dogs.
Thanks for the nice overview! Most likely I will visit Medellin at the end of this year. Hope so :) .
But my spanish is not very good.
+Chrisi77 Just come, don´t worry about that, we are very kind with tourists, people will find the way to understand you and guide you even if we they don´t understand
+Felipe Cardona Thanks! Estudio espanol! And they say, that people in Colombia speak a very good Spanish. My current plan is to visit Medellin in december. I am looking forward to it :) .
+Chrisi77 You are welcome here
Do you have an instagram or any form of social media besides youtube where you post pictures of your travel?
justin connor I do! Wanderingtrader on IG, @Wanderingtradr on Twitter, and you can always check out pictures on my blog wanderingtrader.com
Also I heard laureles good place to live thinking of buying a condo or having a custom made house in Medellin but poblado seems like the area were I would have a house or condo
my best friend lives in medellin wish i could go over there for a week or two to see what it was like
Athena Anderson Its a great city Athena
WanderingTrader thnx it looks like a beautiful city
How did you finance your penthouse? I'm hearing outrageous interest rates for foreigners on mortgages; like 17%. Someone mentioned to me here in Medellin that "rent to own" is one of the best options in the city.
Brian Clark I bought it cash. Unless you are buying from a foreigner very unlikely to get financing from a local or a bank. Most foreigners offer rent to own but many locals won't agree to that.
dude a pleasure to meet you! a surreal moment haha
Small World!
Interesting.
how much would I pay approximatelty for 1 bedroom apartment there in laurels or more "Colombian" neighborhoods I want a Colombian experience there. I don't want to be living there with a tourist environment.
It depends on whether you want the apt furnished or not. If its furnished it will be a lot more expensive.
This video has given me second thoughts about visiting Medillin, I was expecting it to be MUCH cheaper. Food $200-$600 for one person per month, thats way more than what I spend in the UK.
Once you see the women you'll be a believer. You'll pay U.S. prices maybe, but if you are from UK that should still be affordable for you. The women. Oh the women. You have no clue, yet.
But sure UK is not as fun as Colombia , can not explain you , got to be there .
Food prices always vary depending on your location. We spend most of our time in the country on a finca. Food is cheap. We eat in town almost every day, 3 kilometers away.
A full meal for 2 at the towns best restaurant costs around $7 including tip. There is so much food you will NEVER order desert, you'll never have the room for it. We buy steak at the market for around $2 a pound. Premium beer comes in 30 bottle cases for 55,000 COP or $14.50. I love Medellin, my wife is Paisa, but it's always going to be cheaper in the country.
You can find good places and cheap in poblado too of you look for them
Need to try Guadalajara for truly the best year round weather...
i live here & those numbers are still very accurate as of 12/03/14 ...
where is the apartment complex ... you did this video from .... (closer to UPB or Metro) ?? -- thx !!
(i am currently paying 650,000.... but your view is much better )
T Lee I filmed the video in Laureles.
Is it safe though?
Thank you.
Are there many opportunities to find steady work as an English teacher there? I have about 5 years experience teaching in Tokyo Japan.
Don't know about teaching English but I do know that you would be able to do well if you found a good client base
Thanks! It looks very tempting
Where would I find a chef Im moving out there what the best city
TheBeachboy1107 Ask around... they also have agencies for that.
Nice...
Great info, thanks for sharing the video. I will be graduating high school next year and am thinking about taking a trip down there after I graduate. Would you recommend Medellin to a young expat? Do you think it is a city with some business opportunities? How important is it to know spanish?
Thanks
anwar5674 Would highly recommend it. It is a great place to do business. It is still easier to do business in the USA but long term Colombia will be a better choice based on the current market environment and how things will change in the future. You don't have to know Spanish for sure but you will need a translator of some kind
WanderingTrader Ok, cool. Thanks for the info. Plan on visiting Medellin soon
anwar5674 Bro as an advice please don't be conformist and mediocre , learn at least basic Spanish , don't be the ignorant that never knows what people's talking about , once you get there first thing on the list , Spanish LESSONS !!! Remember that knowledge is power ...
Edison Abdiel Spanish was my first language. Bro.
Great Vid...What do you do for a living? How do you afford all that travel?
+Sean Jones I day trade in the stock market. See our sister site www.daytradingacademy.com
Thx...been hearing good stuff about day trading brother...keep them vids. coming
Where is the Most Cost effective Area to Buy Property in ALL of Colombia??
you won't be able to find a city anywhere in the world like Medellin year round, just curious, what about Lima, Buenos Aires, and Rio?
+project10bball Lima is nice but doesn't have the same people or vibe if you ask me. Other than that Lima would be a great place. Buenos Aires is for lack of a better word a shet hole. It is an inferno during the summer and the subway doesn't even have air conditioning. They call is the Paris of the south but it is in very bad shape since they don't take care of the city. Rio is a city that I hold close to my heart. Only problem is that now you have the Zika virus problem, the weather is only nice about 4 months out of the year, crime has skyrocketed (and it was already bad enough), and everything doesn't work in Rio. They don't even good reliable internet. One funny thing that may be a good thing or a bad thing depending on what stage of your life you are in is that you can't get any work done in Rio because everyone is partying all the time. LOL. Kind of sucks if you need to run a business.
Was that 300-600 dollars a week for rent or a month ?
+Acen Kay A month
where do you get the money for all of the travelling?
+MrRdvs87 I day trade in the stock market thedaytradingacademy.com
WANDERING TRADER OR ANY BODY, 1 HOW MUCH IT COST TO RENT ONE BEDROOM IN SOMEONES HOUSE MONTHLY IN MEDELLIN? (NOT INTERESTING IN RENTING AN APARTMENT OR A HOUSE)
+evert coca $250 to $500 USD monthly.
It looks beautiful, this city of eternal spring. Rent costs seem to be pretty much the same, and maybe a little more, than I spend here in the USA. I want to visit. I want to see if I can live there. I saw an activity that blew my mind: parapente! :)
Those are gringo prices because you are renting a furnished apt with everything included. If you live like a local here (rent a place unfurnished, etc) then it would be a lot cheaper. Also very cheap to purchase property here
Marcello Arrambide Hey great video i always thought about renting and unfurnished apartment in Medellin Columbia,is it to much trouble trying it furnish one, i have seen prices for unfurnished apartment and I think you get way more for your money.what area would you recommen to live in where you're close to shops to furnish your apt.Thanks
$600 for a room? That's crazy expensive for a developing country. You can rent a 1bd 700sqft apartment in one of the nice suburbs of Atlanta for around $700! and $300/month for food? that's way more than what it costs me here in Los Angeles LOL!
sbkpilot11 Yes of course... unfurnished with nothing. No internet, cable, tv, chef, maid, nothing. You can rent an unfurnished apt in Medellin for about $300 a month in some decent places. Most Americans and foreigners that come here want to have all the amenities.
Colombia is not a developing country. Medellin itself is the most developed, wealthy and innovative city in possibly all of South America. Also, Wall Street Journal named Medellin the most innovative city in the world. You're paying for the amazing city, favors, feels, women, culture and life you'll experience in Medellin.
Tommy Diez Incorrect. Bogota is more developed and has a lot more money than Medellin. Santiago, Chile would be more developed than Medellin. Sao Paulo in Brazil is the largest financial center in Latin America and has way more wealth than Medellin.
Sao Paulo still lost to Atletico Nacional ;)
WanderingTrader That may be changing with HP and Microsoft planting their South American headquarters in Medellin. Also, Medellin is easier to navigate, has better transportation, and is less polluted and far cleaner (and of course, 1/3 the size of Bogota). As a white guy with blond hair/blue eyes and tall i've received FAR more results in my limited time in Bogota than I ever did in Medelin, lb for lb. As far as living goes, Medellin is hard to beat, although I can see dealing with idiotic porn wh.ores daily may get tiring.
Are you studing in some University in Medellin o have job there?
Juan Fer I run my own business I live in Medellin. I purchased a property there.
What are some good real estate law firms in meddellin
I wouldn't trust anyone of them except casacol.com
Last question: What areas in Medellin are areas I should stay away from?
+Samuel McElvenny The barrios that look like shanty towns up in the hills for the most part.
Lol I stayed going up in favellas never had a problem thank God for that
Marcel , Gracias, thanks you, danke, merci
I been to Barranquilla love it barrio Santa Helena
it cost more to live there than it does to live in the city in which I live in Virginia. It is quite expensive there.
really?
yep
Red Bean ***** Would not agree. Anywhere in the US is much more expensive than in the states. You must have stayed in the tourist areas.
My friend is from MD & pays $350 for a 2 bedroom apartment in a nice area, with a parking space w/security guard. Just told me the other day that I could get a 3 bedroom with no security for about $300. You must have gone to the Potamac/Great Falls area of Medellin!
If you're living here for 3 months than you're going to pay relatively equivalent prices to be in the best part of Medellin, a city of 4 million, as some lame town in Virginia with freezing rain. If you figure your stuff out and you're here a while you can live like a king here for dirt cheap.
When you say dollars, do you mean american dollars? Or colombian dollars? What ever those are.
Jimmy Lee There is no such thing as Colombian dollars. These are US dollars.
Do they not have Uber there?
Yes they do
how to you afford to travel for 6 months straight? Im new to your channel. What do you do for a living
Jared Jorgensen I'm a day trader- as long as I have internet, I can work from anywhere!
I'm way out of the loop haha. What exactly does a day trader do?
Jared Jorgensen Day trading is defined as buying and selling financial instruments within the same trading day. Think of the stock market. Except I specifically choose not to trade stocks.
WanderingTrader damn that's awesome, thought I thought stocks were the only thing to day trade. What else is there?
I visited Medellin and went out with locals, they laughed at el poblado as the place where all the gringos stay (and don't leave) very expensive, full of english speaking tourists, and not very colombian. I had always thought that Medellin would be completely saturated with gringos but I found that outside Poblado there were very few. And even in the centre of Medellin I found to be little to no gringos.
That would be correct!
The peso has dropped in value by about 30%in the past 18 months, do you see this as having any effect on the columbian economy ie Inflation ?
How much are "Lap Dances"?
+Alec Hamid Don't support sex tourism
I was just trying to be funny!
what is properly taxes there ?
Super cheap Rol
Hey man. You used the word "cheap" talking about the cost of everything you mentioned, and compared to my state "Alaska" I really don't see anything cheap, knowing I live in the most expensive state.
- 5 Star Hotels, you said $85 to $150. I don't know about 5 star here, but I stayed in hotels that are super nice with less than $150.
- Room $300 to $800. I am renting a 1 bedroom with $875 in Alaska.
- House $1500. I've rented a 3 bedroom house in an upscale neighborhood with $1700.
- Food $200 to $600. I spend $300 to $400 a month.
- Gym $30 to $100. I pay Planet Fitness $29. And the most expensive gym in my city is $100.
- Drinks $3 to $10. I don't drink but I have seen my friends all the times paying less than $10.
- Bottles $50 to $70. I have seen bottles at the stores mostly ranging between $19 to $40.
- House $200.000. My friend just bought one with $250.000. However, it is only 3 bedrooms in an upscale neighborhood.
Compared to Medellin, my state is way cheaper. You know why? because I am positive the individual income in Medellin is way lower than here.
Sorry, based on what you stated in the video, life is very expensive in that city.
+rowchdi I pay $750 total for all my monthly expenses. That includes a full time maid and a full time chef, and food. You can't find that anywhere else in the US..... even Alaska.
+WanderingTrader That is super cheap. I live in New Jersey, Maid cost $200 for 3000 SQFT house (2 times a month, about up to 2 hour work per each). My grocery alone here cost us (2 people) $700-800 per month. I'd love to have maid and chef cook everyday for $750....wowwwwwwwww
excellent video. cheaper in Cali and much more diversified
Is it easy to find work
+Caroline Smith With American salaries? No.
+WanderingTrader not necessarily just to live there.
Show us your penthouse ,will ya!!!!
+Java Brown ruclips.net/video/YXtg6f9_olk/видео.html
Just remember something: Colombia is not an easy place to live for too long. Let me explain. The authorities just let you stay there as a tourist for three months. Then you will have to go to the DAS, Departmento Administrativo de Seguridad, in order to ask for the salvoconducto, that is, an allowance to stay there for 1 month longer. At the end of the fourth month you ask for another month. At the end or before the fifth you can ask for one another... the last. Depending on the chief that sign this allowances, they can deny it or shorten the period. The DAS, something to have into account. The will investigate what you do or what you did, where you have been to, if they want. You cannot work as a tourist. If you work in Colombia you'll have to inform them if you change the job. Perhaps people think that is quite easy, but it's not.
+Brus Sprinsti I've been living here since 2013 and never had any major issues.
+WanderingTrader Given that you've been living there since 2013, can you please address the rather pertinent and valid comment that Brus Sprinsti made about how to go about getting a visa (work or otherwise) as a foreigner?
+NisaChannel And it's important not forgetting the fact that Colombia is Colombia. it's not just a cheap country but a dangerous place for foreigners (and colombians) , wherever they are coming. That's something to take into account. A taxi driver could be your death sentence if he hasn't good intentions or he's not honest... just to point an example. It's a hard place. My wife is from Medellín, she has seen almost everything there, we've got two daughters and we don't want they go there, by now.
I was running my international marketing company traveling and started trading Bitcoins in 2016, I wish I came across your channel 5 years ago!
I can buy a 2 bedroom house with land in Texas for $40,000 USD so a 2 bedroom apt. for 80,000 is too expensive, but I bet I could find a good deal in Medellin
bro i live in new york im is not that expensive, and i dont have to watch my back
That shtt ain't cheap dude, it costs more to live there that here. It ain't no deal to live there dude.
hes off . the dollar is stronger now
Gringo pricing?????
Medellin is one of the most expensive cities in Colombia.
Juan Fer Every other city is quite small and really not worth living in (besides Bogota and maybe Barranquilla). I have traveled around the world for over 6 years, visited over 80 countries, over 300 cities, and have lived in 12 countries across 5 continents. There isn't any other city in the world that you can live in year round like Medellin. It is still quite cheap compared to world standards as well.
What nationality are you?
+Rene Ruiz American but by Naturalization. I wasn't born in the states.
I know you're hispanics but wondering if PR. I know you lived in Tampa from House hunters. I live in Orlando. Went to colombia last year and loved it ( Armenia and surrounding). . Just thought it was cool what you have done and doing..
worldstarnekkas I know many people that do not speak Spanish that actually prefer to live in Laureles. Most people in Colombia don't speak English as it is so its irrelevant what part of the city you ar eliving in.
+WanderingTrader thanks for all your great video's about Medellin it has been very helpful for me. Cool stuff you're doing, keep up the good work!
I need to live where most english speaker are living?
ronald smart Poblado.
WanderingTrader ok thanks bruh cause i dont speak spanish lol
Why don't you talk about safety? You can't even use your phone in public before it gets snatched!
ghiasonly I've lived in Medellin over 4 years. Always on my phone and even in taxis. Never had an issue. Don't think that's correct information.
your hair is so femininine
It's so hard to take seriously someone who pronounces the L in salmon.
Why shouting
I currently live in Medellin. This is one of the most overrated cities I've ever came across.
+LouisAR15 I would not agree.
+WanderingTrader I've been to 26 countries, I'm Asian. And Colombians are the most superficial people I've ever seen. If you're a white American, you'll be WORSHIPPED like a god. If you're Asian, Indian or Black, they treat you like shit. Go to El Poblado, everyone wears American brands, I'm sure you know that clothing franchise that's called "AMERICAN BRANDS"? In there you could buy brands where Americans never heard of. And I'm also sure that you know all the fake boobs and asses Colombianas has.
Colombians, the biggest American wannabes.
