    I met and married a Colombian woman in her late 30s a well educated teacher! I met her thru friends, good women are busy working you won&apos;t find them in Lleras on weekends looking for a hookup!!! Ten years and it&apos;s getting better every day 😊😊

    I like your channel because you are open and honest about both the good and the bad. Thank you for not gaslighting us like many other channels do.

    Colombia is not El Poblado. &nbsp;There are incredible barrios that are even safer and certainly less expensive.

    Same thing in the states. &nbsp;Nice Colombian girls don’t go directly to a man’s apartment the first time. Same in the states.

    A guy from Medellin here, I enjoy your content, because you have an honest view on us. Regionalism is a thing here, and some times we lost perspective, you give a honest feedback and that is good. Besides I have got to known some nice places here in your channel, so thanks.

    Typically when you live in one of the wealthiest areas of any city like El Poblado, you&apos;re gonna be just fine.

    I normally don&apos;t like these type of channels but this being the second one of yours I&apos;ve watched, I enjoy your honesty back up with legitimate statistics.

    I was drugged/robbed four years ago. &nbsp;I know someone with the mayor’s Vice office and she said 98% of the victims are Colombian. &nbsp;They find 4-5 bodies a week in hotels in El Centro and they’re all Colombian. &nbsp;My trainer’s friend died this way. &nbsp;His cousin was drugged/robbed in Ecuador. &nbsp;I even have a friend who had that happen traveling in Tibet. &nbsp;Medellin isn’t the only place this happens.

    As a Colombian women I can tell you most of us are not gold diggers, most of Colombian women are hard working and serious, what happens in Medellin and Cartagena is that many Older 40+ old americans come as tourist trying to hookup with very young girls in their 20&apos;s, (like that Venezuelan- american youtuber), usually going to places like universities trying to find girls to show them in his videos like fresh meat market for foreigners, at the same time other &nbsp;foreigners put them selfs at risk in some places like parque lleras were are women who work with a group of criminals to drug and robbed foreigners, but a I can tell you probably only 0.01% of the Colombian women belong to that group

    The cost of living has shot up in the Estates where I live. A Burger costs twice as much. Everything is more expensive

    I&apos;ve lived in Belen for almost 8 years. What I noticed for weather is that rain is mostly at night. Daytime rain seems rare. Love the weather.
