👉 Wanna know what life on 600$ per month looks like in Colombia?
I spent the past couple of months living in Medellin, spending about 600$ on my total life expenses per month - that's about half of what my friends pay for just for their rent back home.
Apart from the affordable cost of living in Medellin, I got to spend my time in a city that I have absolutely fallen in love with.
I love the people, the atmosphere, and the festivals.
