Why coliving in Colombia?

Let’s dive into what you can expect from Colombia coliving as a digital nomad. It's hard not to fall in love with the vibrant culture and friendly people here. The country's diversity, and the passion and kindness of its people, make Colombia a beautiful place that's blossoming into the future.

Climate/Diversity

Do your research before you go to a different part of Colombia. Different parts of Colombia have distinct climate zones. Whether you're packing for Bogotá, where the temperature hovers around 18 degrees Celsius and it rains quite a bit, or for Cartagena, where it's 30+ degrees, check timeanddate.com to be prepared for your next trip.

Affordability

Compared to Western countries, many places in Colombia are very affordable. However, this can vary significantly between cities. For example, in Medellín, the price of a cup of coffee can differ by more than $1.50 depending on where you are (which is a lot converted to the Colombian Peso). Check Numbeo.com for cost-of-living comparisons.

Passion and Resilience

Two things that the Colombian people do not lack is passion and resilience. The Colombian people have faced (and in some way still do) internal conflicts that are seemingly very hard to completely overcome. Despite these challenges, Colombians are joyful people who love to welcome foreigners and dispel negative stereotypes. They might invite you to dance salsa or cumbia, or make you feel at home by inviting you over for a dinner.

Coffee

For all you coffee lovers out there you are in luck. Colombia is a major coffee producer. In 2022 Colombia export 13.5 million kilogram of coffee beans according to Statista.com. So where ever you go in Colombia, good coffee is usually just around the corner. If you are planning to go to Medellin for example, there are great coffee tours on farms in Santa Elena you can do that are just an hour drive away. If you go around end of July/begin august, then these coffee farms turn into flower expositions for the Ferria de Flores festival. A must see.

Adventure

As in the whole of South-America, Colombia is packed with nature, wildlife and adventure. Take a flight to Leticia from Bogota to discover the Amazon, go whale watching from July to October on the Pacific coast or visit Colombia’s desert in the North La Guajira. These are just three things of many amazing and divers things to do in this country.

Living in Colombia

Alright, we've given you the lowdown on some awesome places to check out. Now let's dive into the logistics you'll wanna sort out and get ready for.

Visa

You can enter Colombia with a tourist visa which gives you the right to stay up to 90 days. Although this can easily be extended with another 90 days if you want to stay longer. You can do this by filling out this form of the Colombia migration office. Do it a couple weeks before your visa expires because it can take a while. Having said that, by experience we know that if you have sent your form before the date your first visa expires, you are in the clear. Also, before you go to Colombia (and leave), always register yourself with CheckMig through migracioncolombia.gov.co. If you don't you will need to do this in a hurry at customs, as it's mandatory to be able to enter the country.

Internet access

While some places in Colombia still lack robust internet, the destinations mentioned above generally offer good and stable connections, partly thanks to the influx of expats over the years. As long as you are not planning to open your laptop in the middle of the jungle or the poorer comuna's of the city, you will be fine.

Safety

A lot of people wonder before going to Colombia if it's safe enough. If you keep your wits about you and don't go to the off beat track without doing proper research, then yes it's safe. It's a huge country and areas differ in safety, even within cities. A real nuisance can be pickpocketers during large outdoor events. We recommend getting an undercover fanny pack similar to this one on Amazon when you are in Colombia (Totto usually also have these and they are in almost all local shopping centers). It's not as big as other similar bags and you can put it under your clothes. Leave your cards at home and just take enough pesos with you plus your phone. It will fit easily.

Culture & Language

Colombians are a very social and emotional type of people. Their language (Spanish) is very informal as complete strangers often address each other as friends. For example when ordering a drink from a waitress. Streets are normally buzzing with people and bars (or Fonda’s) people get up every 5 minutes to dance to their favorite Salsa, Bachata or Reggaetón tune.
