I have always wondered what it would be like to live and work in Medellín, Colombia. Medellín is know for being one of the most vibrant and fun cities in South America. Once one of the most dangerous cities in the world, Medellín has gone through a remarkable transformation. In 2013, it was awarded Most Innovative City of the Year and has become a hotspot for adventurous digital nomads for all it has to offer. In this video, we are continuing the digital nomad/expat series as I relocate to Medellín, Colombia to live and work. This is a day in my life living as a local in Medellín. Stay tuned for the next episode where I will deep dive into the cost of living in Medellín and the many contributing factors that make it one of the best, if not THE best, city in the world for working remotely.

Been living here for 2 years and have no plans to leave. If you get a chance you should explore some of the pueblitos around Medellin, there are some gems!
Love the dancing part, the market part, the massage part, the apartment with an awesome view part, the chili part and the avocadao part!
Haley..Thanks for taking us on your travel. I love the view of the city.

Same here! I have been traveling back and forth to Medellin for 2 1/2yrs. I love this city. I love the surrounding cities such as guatape. I also love the people. Colombia really has gotten a bad reputation. Luckily I understand that there is no perfect place or city in the world.
You're living your life to the fullest 😍😍 I'm so jealous
Enjoyed the video. Well done! Love that area.
Good choice!! We also fell in love with Colombia. Medellin has a lot to offer.

Love in the time of Cholera is love and heartbreaking at the same time. The author's background makes me want to explore Colombia. But watching your video, makes me want to live there too!
Love your video , you capture great images of the Medellin , like your vibe and finally , you’re gorgeous !
Haley, I have followed many of your adventures around the world with you, Wil and your parents. You're all soooooo AWESOME! Thank you for sharing your life with us. It's cool to live vicariously through you. I will be moving to PH just as soon as it opens back up to vaccinated US visitors.
I've been to colombia in bogota last year before pandemic. Colombia is such a nice country. It has a lot offer. Love to go back there.
I have seen thise huge avocados when I was in South Carolina. I was shock to see them that big. Though I admit being an avocado lover, I was ecstatic . I bought so much making avocado smoothie. Oh la la!
I'm moving there July 1st for a few months but I'm pretty sure ill extend my stay. That place has my heart. 🥰
Living the dream! I am planning to move to Bogota but after watching this Medellin sounds great too
Welcome to my country and glad you like it here. You can save an avocado haha. Just keep the pit in the half you want to save.. Cheers
Love the dance lesson followed by a massage! 🤗🤗🤗 You look great in that dress while learning salsa!
Great video. I met Carolina when I was in Medellin last summer. She is super fun.
I lived in Medellin in 2011 to 2012 and I'm so happy you are there. I miss my Paisa friends and my life there. Can you do a part 2 of the food spots, museums, malls, bars and cafes please? Try Bandeja Paisa, Juan Valdez coffee, coffee with rum from a street cart etc. I want to relive those days thru your vlog. Oh and visit Manila st. In Envigado!
Glad you are with usGod bless!
Wow nice view, and a lot of fresh fruit.
Always supporting here.. Love you haley
I just came back from Colombia to Poland yesterday. We’ve been there only for a short period of a time, so we only travelled through a small part of a country, but we were truly impressed with everything in there and we definitely should go back to 🇨🇴 to see even more! Cheers!

Oh my, Haley!!!!!! You make me want to go there! This is a very beautiful Medellin compared to what I have imagined it to be ( because I watch too much Narcos)!

Hola!! Soy de Medellín, la ciudad que te imaginas es la que vivimos hace 30 años atrás con la violencia, hoy Medellin se ha transformado en una de las mejores ciudades de Latinoamérica, claro que hay peligro como en muchos lugares del mundo, fui a París y me decían lo mismo que les dicen a ustedes cuando vienen tener precaución con los ladrones de calle, de resto es una ciudad y un País mágico. Saludos y bienvenida.
My family and I just left Bogotá, Colombia we lived there for 2 years! You should visit Bogotá I think you will like it as well!

Avocado hack. Next time you can prep your guac/cubes of avocado and portion out in to a ziplock bag and freeze them until you are ready to eat. They will never turn brown in the freezer! Only takes overnight to defrost in the fridge when you plan to eat it the next day.

First time watching your channel. You have met some awesome people in Medellin. My husband is from Medellin and we are planning to visit next April. I love the people from there, the food, the music and of course the weather. Hope to see more of your videos I just subscribed. Can you let us know what it costs monthly to live there? Your apt. is beautiful with great views👍
Wow. Your staying at Energy. I love that place!

You are going to LOVE it there in Colombia. My family and I have lived in Costa Rica for about 6 years and I learned most of my Spanish years ago from a good friend of mine who was born/raised in Medallin, Colombia. She always tells me that the cultures in CR and Colombia are VERY similar and also her and I can speak Spanish together and NEVER have dialect issues between the two regions. The culture in both places is VERY warm, inviting and also the cost of living is super low. I hope you enjoy it as much as we've enjoyed living in the Latin Americas! 😊
Medellin es una chimba 😎
Great video! I'll be there for the 1st time towards the end of the month. I can't wait! It would be cool to bump into you while I'm there.

Enjoy Medallo and Colombia, this is also your home, little friend
I was looking forward to watch this video. Once again, warmest welcome to my country from La Puerta de Oro de Colombia (Colombia’s golden gate- Barranquilla aka Shakira’s hometown) and not only to you but anyone who would like to come here is more than welcome anytime. Back to the video, this just brought back memories to when I went to Medellín in 2015 and it was undoubtedly the most beautiful trip and experience. I haven’t been to many places here yet BUT Medellín definitely won my heart! The contrast of the mountains and the brick buildings, a view to never get tired of! Thanks for loving my country so far and if you stay here, eres más que bienvenida, mejor dicho ya eres otra Colombiana más de corazón! I hope you’ve already tried the buñuelos and the famous bandeja Paisa. Keep on enjoying your stay! ♥️

I'll visit when i can. I have a couple of friends in Colombia I'll be visiting someday. Great video and I am Mexican American but you dance better than i can. I've been in the USA too long. There's no Mexicans to dance with in Utah hardly. We're about 1.5% of the population. It's like Hartford Connecticut here. I'm living vicariously through you and other KZreadrs. Until i travel myself. Thanks!
