I moved from the USA to Colombia. I live in Bogota. No complains except the horrible traffic. The northern part of Bogota is amazing. Medellín also feels distinguished without being extremely arrogant like New York. I think this is a country trying to be a big change. The weather is great, the nature, the food, with good decent money you definitely can live like a king. Bogotá has some amazing malls, better than most of the USA, it has a European vibe, also the latin vibe. I live also in the northern side outside of Bogota. A bit cold but amazingly calm and gorgeous

[@nm_arq]

A few months ago a video went viral in which a foreigner ordered his food in English and the waitress did not understand him. The foreigner's Colombian girlfriend tried to mediate and translate into Spanish, but the foreigner interrupted her girlfriend and told her, "She has to learn." A Colombian who overheard the conversation interrupted and said, "She doesn't need to learn English, you need to learn Spanish." This sparked a debate on social media. The massive arrival of foreigners, and especially this type of attitude, has made Colombians more apprehensive and intolerant towards foreigners. A piece of advice: many of you want to leave "America", but "America" ​​​​must also come out of you, from your being. It makes no sense to leave America to be America somewhere else. especially need to abandon this "gringo perspective" that you may not be aware of and that you mean no harm, but that is annoying and sometimes even disrespectful. This is compassionate advice to avoid a similar or undesirable situation. I hope you enjoy and get involved with the culture

I absolutely love Bogotá. I’m generally a person who likes quiet beach towns, but I ended up in Bogotá accidentally and fell in love with it. It’s a very beautiful city with so many beautiful Parks and the people are kind and interesting. As a Canadian, I can’t even afford fruits and vegetables anymore but Bogota has some incredibly cheap produce! With break discount stores like D1 and Ara, you can eat like a queen here. I usually rent Airbnb‘s either in Chaparino,el Chico Norte or the Financial district which I find all really safe. The only down part about Bogotá is the weather. There really is not much sunshine, it’s not that warm, and it rains a lot. The altitude also gets to me sometimes although the altitude is not as high as in Cusco in Peru, it still bothers me. Thank you for the great video.😊

I work from Colombia for British and American companies, and the contrast in the cost of living is very noticeable, you can live very comfortably if you have an income above Usd $43k a year. Yes, it's true that the GINI index is 51.5, which makes it an upper middle-income economy so although you have the typical inequality you see in Latin America, Colombia does have the most stable democracy in the region and Bogota is more or less on par with most of what you'd find abroad in terms of gastronomy, entertainment, shops, culture, etc

Amazing presentation about the life in Bogota Colombia, thank you so much for sharing the video. I'm from Colombia but I live here in Virginia Beach, and I was in Bogota 20 years ago. OMG I remember to visit the Shopping Center Mall Andino, absolutely beautiful 😍 as you can see, Bogota is very elegant with a Spanish accent different from other countries that's mean beautiful 😍. So glad to see you are living in the city classic! Bogota Colombia 🇨🇴 ❤

Real estate, restaurant, tailor and wine bar - what more could you ask for? Bogota looks fantastic since the last time I was there.

[@victoriadedicova]

Don't forget the driver, the cleaning lady (live in if you have young kids), nannies. It's a great place to raise a family. Most places have gate people or are in gated communities.

[@victoriadedicova]

@@joannabusinessaccount7293 you need to calm down. I live in a neighborhood where I'm the only non-colombian and most everyone with kids has nannies, cleaning ladies and/or cooks, we have gardeners in the neighborhood too. I don't know where you're from, but it is a norm to have nannies, cooks and cleaning ladies (Empleadas), way before gringos started rolling into Colombia in packs. If you're on a finca, it is common to have a family or two who live on the property and take care of it, animals, and gardens. And, also, long, long history of this before gringos discovered Colombia.

[@victoriadedicova]

@@joannabusinessaccount7293 also, your ignorance is showing. Most of the people that have those jobs are often coming from neighborhoods where they don't have other opportunities and were taken advantage of local community. My empleada only did cleaning once a week. She used to work at a flower farm. She earned minimum wage. When her son got sick, she was fired because she had to take care of him and it was hard for her to go to the flower far regularly.. When she worked for me, she could bring her son, she worked less hours and earned double, and could have more time with her son. We also helped her find more jobs like that and it helped her save money and get a better apartment. We gave her everything that we would be getting rid of so she was able to get stuff she could use and either sell or give away things to family or the church. We had old baby things that benefited her neighbor, a single mom. She was very sad when we had to move about 45 minutes away and let her go, and she said that she would even go 45 minutes each way to come work for us. We made sure she filled her times with good people to upkeep her income. So kindly, do think before you type.

[@victoriadedicova]

@@joannabusinessaccount7293 haha. You lack self awareness don't you? You seem to think you're the only one that's right and when people spit facts at you, you "touched their nerves". Sorry girl, we're not all as unsecured as you or as sensitive and insensible. Please go bark up another tree.

[@Komnenit]

@@joannabusinessaccount7293It feels rather odd that you don’t realize how every country that is now rich and developed has had to undergo phases of low-skilled intense-hours labor with low wages, in order to accumulate the capital needed which in turns allows to increase productivity, wages, cut down on working hours, and enjoy a higher standard of living. Such has been the case in the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, more recently in Taiwan, Singapore, China, etc. why would you frown upon one of the natural phases of a country wanting to reach progress and wealth? How else do you suggest a society to accumulate the capital required to raise living standards? By sleeping? By accumulating monopolistic regulations that make employment impossible or a luxury for a reduced number of workers?

[@rjnsn5121]

I was born in Bogota and lived there for 30 years. This video is incomplete because it does not tell investors about Colombia being in an earthquake zone and the frequency of the tremors, also related to that the concern is the quality of the construction of the the buildings, many of them were not build with high quality standards and the authorities look the other way, because there is corruption and lots of bureaucracy. Google the news about the shortage of water in Bogota, is affecting hotels, restaurants, hospitals. The current president was part of the guerrilla groups, there is still kidnapping going on. The best of Colombia is the food and the loving people of the middle class. Rich people don’t pay taxes, there is very limited budget to invest in infrastructure. Now you have more of a complete picture. I love Colombia and am very proud of my roots, I love it with imperfections and all ❤.

Only the Andean region is prone to earthquakes. This is not the case for the Caribbean region. Everything else you said it's true. I own property in Cartagena, so I am familiar with the Counties geography.

[@RicardoGonzalez-lo5ur]

I am Colombian but when I do the numbers things do not add up. Living in a secondary city in Portugal or Spain costs about the same. I would add safer, better infrastructure, less corruption, better public services, less currency exposure, less expensive healthcare and similar taxes.

[@japanluv]

Where do you live? Im Romanian but my daughter is half Colombian as well, currently living with her mom in Minca, country side by choice since we do homeschooling and me and her mom separated. I’m in the UK at the moment. I’m very close to move most of my earnings to come from online so I was debating spending my life between Colombia, Romania and also set Home in Spain as a middle point?

[@RicardoGonzalez-lo5ur]

I live in Mexico for work reasons but close to retirement and debating if I should go back to Colmbia. I also hold Spanish citizenship. The only reason I am considering to go back are my aging parents. Once they are gone most likely I will be out of there. Colombia does not make sense from a safety, cost, nor tax point of view. There is also too much currency exposure and legal & economic uncertainty with the current government. It is certainly an option for those who do not have access to Southern Europe but in your case and mine, not to be considered for permanent residence.

[@japanluv]

@@RicardoGonzalez-lo5ur Thank you for getting back to me. My mom is also getting old back home, my sister is in Germany with her family, my ex in laws in NY and my daughter in Colombia, as mentioned earlier. I realised there s no perfect place in the world, I do love Colombia as my home country Romania but I don’t think I want to be in any of them for the whole year around. We shall see.

​@@RicardoGonzalez-lo5urI am a Colombian too living in the UK but, unlike you, I can't wait to go back home. The current government is doing great although government revenue is running rather low at the moment. About Bogotá and the cost of middle cities in Portugal or Spain, you can't compare them like for like. If you can afford the lifestyle shown in this video in Bogotá, then go and have it in Madrid, Lisbon or Barcelona and we are talking, you would have to multiply your costs by at least two.
