[@wolfgangnorbertkruger9784]

Andrew, I live in Barranquilla, Colombia. A tropical city with all amenities of a big city with a tropical setting. While Barranquilla is not directly on the ocean, it has a developed riverfront area and is equidistant between Cartagena and Santa Marta ( one and a half hours from each). Talking about Santa Marta, it is the oldest city in Colombia and a smaller version of Cartagena. These days it is becoming a nomad worker destination and frankly, in my opinion, after coming to Colombia for 20 years, living here for six, it is mote appealing to me than Cartagena. Keep up the great videos!

Tulum is getting an international airport. a tourist train is being built all the way along the Mayan Riviera coast. Tulum is getting much more touristy where u have inflated prices and rip offs in the tourist areas. best to stay with the locals where life is normal if u choose Tulum. a better place to live is Puerto Morelos (safe, ecologically protected with a good blend of expats and locals who work together. banks, big box stores and cheap local transportation ) It's about half hour South of Cancun and half hour North of Playa Del Carmen so u have the best of those small cities. It is a real gem!! If u live across the highway on the Mexican Colonia side instead of the tourist side (only 3 km fr the ocean) u can buy a brand new apartment for $25 000 USD or a new 2 bedroom house for around $30 000. Residency takes 4 years. Hire an immigration rep for less than $1000 CDN who will guide u thru it all.

1. I've always liked the Dominican Republic. Been there a few times. For me personally I like the cibao region. Santiago is a nice big city. Only downside for some is that it doesn't have a beach but the beach is an hour away. The government is also building a road to get to Puerto Plata faster from Santiago. Personally I wouldn't mind a passport from the DR. I know it's not the best but I don't plan on renouncing my citizenship in America so I'm considering it. 2. Colombia I'm always going back and forth on. I want to do it but then I see men get roofies in their drinks or some other stuff happens and it turns me off. If I did go I would visit Barranquilla. I've read that a lot of that stuff doesn't go on there.

[@market-climbing-stockchart3279]

The DR had that big scandal with people dying at resorts supposedly from drinks too, there's an easy solution which is don't go out to bars and drink or only drink beer from a bottle that comes unopened, the reality is that these countries have dangers for foreigners so it may be necessary to adapt your lifestyle

That use to be true however the decades long Colombia-FARC conflict (civil war) ended back in 2016. I've visited Colombia on a number of occasions before and after the peace deal and can attest the dangers of killings, kidnapping largely committed by the Revolutionaries, are a thing of the past. For example, a friend of mine recently traverse the country by vehicle with wife and toddler son without problems. When I explained to him how incredibly unsafe that was just 4 years ago he was blown away. Before the 2016 peace deal that was very risky especially if you were a foreigner like he is. Even the capital of Bogota was not safe - well half of it. As I understood it, nearly half the capital was under FARC control and the other half Colombian government control. Colombians with the means largely flew between cities. Exceptions to that were travel between North coast cities of Cartagena, Barranquilla and Santa Marta. That said I do not know how long the current safety will remain with the influx of Venezuelan refugees. That withstanding, I think Colombia has begun its trek to becoming the next Chile.

Tulum is overpriced/namebrand if you ask me. There are better long term purchases in Mexico if you shop around.

In 10-20 years, that entire coast will be developed and become a major hub for tourists and expats, even more so than it is now...

I know I'm not Andrew but I am Jamaican and I'm sorry to say but it is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to gain residency or citizenship in Jamaica. I live there half of the year and there are lots of Europeans (including Russians which are a new phenomenon), Canadians, Chinese, Indians and some Americans that have homes here and live here but they aren't recognized as permanent residents or citizens. Furthermore unlike other smaller islands you can not buy your way into Jamaican citizenship or residency. BTW, I think you will find that this is the same with most other well known British Common Wealth Countries. But with all that said I have to say THANK GOD THAT I'M JAMAICAN BY BIRTH! I have the best of both worlds. I'm an American citizen with a beautiful home in Jamaica. Everyone speaks English of course, we have beaches here but what is less talked about are our mountains and rivers. They are simply breathtaking. We are also a relatively safe island (yes there is crime but that's usually relegate to some unsavory communities). We also have the advantage of being a relative developed country compared to other Caribbean countries, but we have preserved a great deal of our natural beauty. The only thing that sucks is it can be expensive and the healthcare could be better. But thats where being a U.S. Citizen comes in handy. Miami is just 1.5 hours flight away. Hope this helps.

Can you do a video (or link me to one?) discussing the steps you need to take as an American to move to another country in terms of insurance, legalities, permits, visas, renting a new place, what do you do with your American possessions and home, etc?

Thank you for this Andrew! I'd love to see more videos like this to give us options to research :)

[@amoszook3775]

Good video, good info. Thank u.

[@ronaldwhayesjr]

I've been looking into San Andres Colombia. Although far away from the coast it does offer a lot of amenities and the location is beautiful. More importantly it is part of Colombia, lastly they do have direct flight from Miami so there is direct access back to the United States and that is a nonstop flight.

I want to live anywhere in the world that doesnt force you to mask up your face and close your business and make you lockdown for a virus. Basically a country that realizes your health is your responsibility and not the governments. I want freedoms and I want government not in my business. Any country out there like this?

@@nomadcapitalist8285 ok. My family just ordered our passports. To go where? To be determined....

[@lmh4162]

Hello Nomad Capitalist, Just out of curiosity what makes a citizenship in Dominican Republic not so great. I heard you mention it so I would like to get your opinion on it in terms of the pros and cons you find with it. It would be great if you could do a video or cover some topics on Dominican Republic and how it would benefit a Nomad looking to have a 2nd Citizenship or residence. I think it would be interesting to get your perspective on it so others can be more informed. Thanks

[@leonardogarces7563]

Dominican native here.... I think he says it because of the passport, there are other countries with better passport ranking. But it is not that is bad, its just average.

[@joehubeny2659]

Any chance u can expand on the passport ranking and why the DR is just average. I’m currently investing in vacation properties in the Las Terrenas area and considering citizenship. Any extra info would be appreciated. Thank you!

[@Garlic2111]

cause you can only go to 68 countries without visa with our citizenship, while others in the Caribbean can go to 150+. i think the hardest think about it is that you can't enter the schengen area without visa, but if you are from Canada or the US that should not be a problem. Its just a problem if the country you are from does not have those countries available.

how about pricing for renters please. Thk Andrew love all your videos/ Info. thanks Again!! Marc

Thanks! More about the Caribbean please! What about if you were a citizen of Jamaica? How could you benefit from some of these structures? Does it cost as much to become a citizen of another CARICOM country?

[@edwardferry8247]

Mexico ? Beautiful but my goodness it’s dangerous.. I know I lived there 🙈 Cartagena ? The prices are crazy !!

[@rosewater1757]

hmm so Jamaica didn't make the list, which citizenship by decent is possible... any thoughts on Jamaica would be great thanks! more Caribbean options too for videos

What are your thoughts on Guayana? Being mainland and the seat of the carricomm

Hi Andrew. Love your videos & watch them religiously. Very informative. If I marry a Honduran woman in the USA how do I go about getting Honduras residency & even possibly citizenship. Have a great day. Be well & thank you

[@JoshuaMackos]

I would love to live in the Caribbean in an early retirement (or just in general). I'm just unsure about the healthcare. Eventually I'm gonna get old and start falling apart lol

[@75daddygonzo]

My wife is from the DR and she sometimes prefers to see the dentist/doctor when she goes to the DR even though we have good insurance here in the US. As long as you do your do due diligence you’ll find good doctors in the Caribbean but when it comes to finding a specialist or more serious medical issues some expats end up coming back to the US. It just depends on what issues you’re dealing with.

[@JoshuaMackos]

@@75daddygonzo appreciate that insight!

[@benkim2016]

That's what is happening to my dad and myself lately!!

Would love to hear your thoughts, pro and con, on Turks & Caicos. Have a business deal up and coming there in the very near future.

how does it work when purchasing property/real estate? the US dollar is more in some countries than others. would love to have a place to go and use as vacay rental when we are not there.

[@Racingnorthstar]

Andrew I would love to move to places like this but the biggest issue is that I need the internet to work and do business ! Zoom calls, video streaming fibre optic type speed. Is there anywhere in the Caribbean or even the world where I could get residence as a British national ,lower the tax burden and keep working with high speed fibre optic internet ? Georgian republic also looks great but then I have no idea how to make sure my internet is both fast and reliable can you help with more videos on this ? Thanks and btw great channel!

[@laurensrodi9501]

Curacao? Interesting tax set ups for e-commerce and full of (Dutch) accountants and lawyers , good connections to Amsterdam. Big enough to have everything you need, small enough for a sense of community. Problem with crime and government laziness in general I would say, you kinda have to know a guy. But thats true for Panama and DR as well so...
