Do not use dating apps AT ALL in Colombia!
What's the best way to meet local colombian women?
@@johnclark8637 The best way to meet any women, like old times 🙂
@@johnclark8637 Perhaps in places where regular women work such as grocery stores, malls, etc., but most Colombian women are not actually interested in foreigners. Foreigners have nothing to offer but money. They usually aren’t familiar with Colombian culture, can’t dance well, and aren’t fluent in Spanish. I would just say, don’t go down there expecting that the Colombian women will love you as a foreigner. Probably only the ones with motives will show interest.
@@johnclark8637 join the yoga classes in the area
@@johnclark8637 use dating apps. Just use your brain. Dont listen to this guy. I ve met plenty of colombiana on there and will keep doing it there a way to weed out people.
Great video! The sad thing is that 99% of people who watch this will do the exact things you told them not to, then cry about it later on Facebook 😅 I give up at this point lol
@AKJoel The problem though is your arrogance and claim that Medellin is as safe as any other major city in the world. It isn't. Even while keeping one's guard up all the time and observing many precautions, one can still be got much easier there than many large cities around the world. That's because Colombian law enforcement and courts are quite weak in comparison, creating environments where criminals thrive. It's not rocket science.
Great video…Thank you!

Andy, this is solid man. Sorry I missed the livestream…
Lieing I was over there like 2 weeks ago af it was amazing the the girls out there are great.. no danger..
It's a numbers game, eventually someone's gonna get got.
I've lived in Medellín for 18 years, and your advice is sound. It amazes me that middle-aged, or older, men who don't attract beautiful teenage girls in thier own country suddenly believe they are irresistible to young women when they come here. Incidentally, one time I was invited to a party in the 12 de Octubre neighbourhood and got so drunk that I don' remember getting home. Nothing bad happened to me, but it was a pretty stupid thing to do.
I get them tho. I am from latin-America and used to get lots of attention. I actually had women literally engaging in a physical fist fight over me absolutely nuts. I am in Northern-Europe now and it's absolutely depressing. Women act like men here, they have massive egos and pick-up game is pretty much dead. Communication is a concept most women here don't understand, let alone a sense of respect for men. It s so depressing so I completely understand these men. The problem is howoever, as you said yourself: Usually it is not the type of men that would have gotten any girl anyways, so they are ultra desperate for any kind of attention. Especially when it comes from a hot Colombian girl.
@@deeptoot1453 damn that’s crazy. I love Colombian women.
@@MedellinBuzz You and me both brother. Can't wait for this summer when I'm traveling to Peru for a moth or two.
u saved me
Glad I could help, haha.
If you get a tinder date then bring her to your room, don’t retaliate against her if you catch her spiking your drink. Just usher her out of your room and say tell her you’ll meet her some other day. These girls will have their colleagues go after you for retaliating against them.
Remember criminals are getting more clever by playing the long game.
If you happen to get in a situation where you do have to retaliate get out of that hotel immediately and go to another city.
Good info
Thanks
Colombian approved..i'm sharing this
Thank you 🙏
@@MedellinBuzz yep, i def suscribed btw
...plus you made me lol when you said "what did you expect was gonna happen"
That is the most colombian thing to say 😅😅😅😂😂
To foreign outsiders they may see that as victim shaming or being unempathetic but i couldnt help but laugh. I was like yep, he is very colombian..you may have grown up in the states but colombia never left you.
@@reycondor8083 🤣
Here's the real #1 tip: Go elsewhere! There are many better spots than Medellin.
Yeah that’s what I said in the live episode. th-cam.com/users/liveofdx7qz4cMA?si=itou5gqujmJHOAry regardless 2024 will probably have over 1.6 million tourists.
Here's another tip educate yourself on the situation by Watching videos being posted by other people regarding medellin situation.
Names please
@@generallytso1077 mate it's fine if you're not an idiot
Where else would you recommend??
LOL!Good advice, period!
Great video with proper OG insight!
Appreciate it!
All good advice!!! I go twice a year to Medellín and never had a problem, that doesn't mean it couldn't happen but following all this advice is def helpful. If you're looking for working women just go to a "spa" or known stripclubs/brothels, you'll find the same level of attractive women as in Lleras.
Any accommodation you rent... AirBnB... hotel... apartment... etc... make sure there's security downstairs that checks I.D.s. That is very minimum.
Some security will not let your guest exit the building without you escorting them down. This is best scenario.
Fair advice, but the price you'll pay for 24h security in building can be quite high outside of good hotels. Also many a security guards will look the other way for a female to exit the building for 100k pesos or less. Especially if she just robbed you for 1.5 million pesos. You have to proactively barter for your protection ahead of time in some countries. So if you plan to have a party or bring a chick back that night to the building, you let the security guard know ahead of time and that he should not let the guest enter or leave without you and maybe tip your security guard 150k pesos at the beginning of your stay. Also have to be careful not to let the security guard think you have a lot of money or they can set you up too.
@Originalman144 but you get what you pay for. I don't know your situation, but 140 a night for a nice safe place. Is not that expensive compared to usa.
Most of airbnb or hotel in colombia they will ask you to register any guest at the front desk.
I’d also ask her to consent to a bag search by security.. and no, not your bag, so to speak. If she’s genuine enough, she’d understand with everything that’s going on.
I also think that you’re better off going somewhere neutral. Get a room at a reputable hotel where you’re not already staying.
I just wish everyone would take this very sound advice when they visit Medellin or anywhere in the world. And those that do not heed this great advice, you have been warned and do not cry "FOUL" when something bad happens to you.
Fair warning
In many parts of the world, you can slip on a lot of these warnings and be perfectly fine. Literally, watch the video again and pretend the warnings are for your home town in the USA (assuming your home town is safe). People who love Colombia are desensitized to the fact that most of these warnings are unusual.
This is sound advice to a coward, who got bullied in high school!
@@matthewcharles1572 are you saying I got bullied in high school? 🤣
@@MedellinBuzz yep! He’s calling you a coward 😂
If you have to know so many rules and there’s so many opportunities to get ripped off or robbed who would want to live there?
Sounds like a lesser Brazil.
Yet millions come every year. It’s crazy.
This could apply else where not just colombia. For the south American countries.
True!
Facts! These rules were for a "nerd"! Not a person from a big city with crime everywhere!
I met a girl from Colombian Cupid I met her family I was in Bogota also went by myself nothing happened to me I dont go out to party’s I’m not a club person I just go get to know places like if I want to visit Medellin I would go to Pierda de Penol
Do you know Spanish?
@@jakemccoy yes of course my family are Mexicans I’m Mexican American
Did you smash?
Cause you Hispanic lol
8:09 I love how the stock photo of Brentwood when we're talking about a nice part of town is ROSS -- the store where you're most likely to witness a crime. But I guess Medellin is just Ross for thirsty gringos, so it fits.
Happy New Year Everyone!!!
Curious to ask:
Why does it seem more Men fall victim to dating crimes in Colombia compared to let's say SE Asia?
I visited Colombia back in September. I did go on a few Tinder dates but didn't proceed with anything thanks to videos like this. Also, I'm low key and have a lot of travel experience - take precautions. I had a great time!
Rewind, 20 years ago. I lived in Thailand for a few years. Here I partied frequently and didn't have any issues with anyone.
My theory is it has to do with culture/religion. I think that Colombia and Thailand are equivalent in not charging locals as much ( as far as I know there is a lot of nepotism in Thailand). However, maybe, Buddhism in Thailand does play a big role in dissuading Thais to commit such acts?
Although, if you get involved with drugs anywhere you're going to get involved with the wrong people and being victimized is inevitable.
But I got 3 girlfriends in Medellin how am I supposed to cut them off?
"Do not trust beautiful women. Especially if she shows interest in you." Magneto
I have had great times in Colombia, but I will be parting ways unfortunately. I am looking for a Latin American country for retirement, and Colombia will be missing out on my money.
"Don't go to stupid places, with stupid people, at stupid times of the day". If you are "partying" or a sex tourist, then yes, you are at greater risk.
The murder rate in Medellin was 12.7 per 100k in 2022. Here is a sampling of murder rates in US cities during the same year:
1. New Orleans, LA 71.0
2. St. Louis, MO 68.0
3. Detroit, MI 50.0
4. Rochester, NY 36.0
5. Atlanta, GA 33.0
6. Hartford, CT 29.2
7.Washington, DC 28.4
8. Richmond, VA 25.3 (BTW I live near here)
9. Chicago, IL 25.1
10. Oakland, CA 25.0
11. Indianapolis, IN 25.0
12. Buffalo, NY 22.0
13. Dallas, TX 19.0
14. Compton, CA 17.0
15. Newark, NJ 16.0
16. Lexington, KY 13.3
It's crazy how so many people go to a country that they've never been to before and think that they're going to Disney world. Wake up fellas, do your homework and avoid traveling to any country alone or without knowing anyone.
My tip is go somewhere else safer. :)
Yep, sex tourism is safer in tour countries. Don’t come here for that.
@@MedellinBuzz its not just s3x tourists that get robbed or killed in colombia lol
@@Yalbou that’s true but the majority that got killed where.
@@MedellinBuzz Colombia had 25 tourists killed in a recent year and 8600 traffic fatalities. Yeah tourists really need to take your video to heart for their safety
@@JNorth87 yeah exactly a lot of people will say that 25 out of 1.4 million visitors is not a bad stat, but even one gone is too many.
When I first visited Colombia tipping was unheard of but because of gringos flashing the cash it’s becoming expected now,thanks for fucking things over by flashing the cash.
Nobody comes to my house in LA. Definitely not bringing anyone to my air bnb in Colombia
Im 6'4 white and blonde.. so i am sure i wont look like a tourist.
😂😂😂Yeah in Norway you won't !!!!
i'm 5'4 and japanese. same here - WW
Best way to be, unless they got a gun they know they're at a massive disadvantage 😂
That's what he meant, criminals always prefer the tourist type, alone no Spanish skills not aware of the local culture, in Medellin there is a lot of expats and digital nomads that know Spanish have local contacts and how not to dar Papaya, normally they are not targeted. Try to blend among them is the tip.
Actually, there are more Colombians robbed in Colombia by Colombians.
Do not come , why you put your lives on risk, the locals are complaining for the same issue. There are more places on earth.
Great advice. I am ready for Medellin. I am first generation Italian American who's learned Spanish fluently two years ago. I speak Italian fluently, too; but I speak more Spanish to my girl who is Colombian.
Nice, I'm sure you're going to love it.
I would add to the point about not resisting robbery- get some travel insurance organised before you come here. Parting with your iPhone will be a lot less painful if you know your insurance is going to cover some or all of a replacement
These are great tips. Truth is, people are still going to go such as myself. I would rather be informed ahead of time instead of walking in blind. To a lot of people, this will seem daunting and scary, but other people have led a different life, and this is a walk in the park. If you want to go somewhere you can walk without an issue, then absolutely go to another country. Safety isn't an issue in Thailand or the Philippines, but I've been involved in places like Iraq for an example, so it's not an issue in my eyes.
Very well said! 🙏
Not going somewhere like Colombia makes more sense.
Yep, this is not for those that have decided not to come. It's like giving safe sex tips to someone who's decided that they'll never have it. Appreciate the comment.
Yeah it's a cesspool
Great tips overall!
Thanks!
How many dates should we wait to bring a girl back to our place?
You should know
7 🥴
At this point in time the negatives far outweigh the positives. If you can’t go to a country for a holiday without so many negatives then it ain’t worth it. Their economy will suffer because a few disgusting individuals have ruined it for the many.
Yessir, go somewhere else for sex tourism.
You sound like such a beta 😂 you don't hear us crying when you Latinos go to the west and go to party. Going out on tinder dates isn't sex tourism that's living life you absolute melt @@MedellinBuzz
@@UTubeVidWatcher “Colombia’s strong economic turnaround coming out of the Covid-19 pandemic was fueled by a dual focus on energy sustainability and tourism, producing a 10.6% jump in GDP growth in 2021-the highest recorded growth since the government’s statistical authority started keeping records in 1975.” -Global Finance Magazine (May 2, 2023)
Bruv u can also find a girl the normal way... u know get to know her, going out ... before thinking about sex. For all that colombia is safe
EXACTLY 💯 not worth the risk
So you said no raybans so in general no sunglasses at all is what you would recommend?
Raybans are fine. It’s the whole outfit. Google “what people in Medellin wear”
Dont be too flashy thats all. Rayban who cares there so many fakes ray ban everywhere
yeah it's the whole ensamble, not just the glasses. @@ledeux
Another option would be to pick someplace else to go with less of an issue? Get invited to a party and go without fear?
Yep if your scared go to church, as they’d say
@@MedellinBuzz I see a lot of YTs with extensive rule lists to avoid getting got or killed in Medellin as a gringo. I would say these YTs like yourself are smart for following these rules, not scared or maybe they are properly scared of the consequences of failing to follow these restrictive rules. I also wouldn't call it scared to choose a city in Columbia or other low cost country where the pros are equal or better and the rule-following required to avoid getting robbed/kidnapped/murdered are less needed or less restrictive. Maybe cities where news of gringo robbings/kidnappings/murders are absent or single digits annually rather than weekly, but cities still just as fun.
Tinder and bumble is safe my friends. Just take time to get to know her... if she doesnt work with kids thats a red flag. Go for the one that has a decent job that require education or the one that are at school.
Bro beter rent apartament in Arbinb or hotel ?
It depends. When I visit a new city, I like to get a private room in a large hostel because they always have events and tours, and it's easy to meet new people that way. For example, El Viajero or Los Patios are great ones.
These are about all excellent suggestions minus the arrogance and cocksuredness of Joel. Bravo. The only one I don't like is the card useage. I just don't want my card numbers put out there again and again in a place like Medellin while potential for fraud in those networks in surely higher. I leave most of my cash in my room. When out I keep any larger bills in a separate pocket and only reach for the small ones when paying. The moving in groups is of the greatest suggestions, and one we don't often hear. That's tougher for me as I tend to travel alone. None of my friends in the States are interested in Colombia. Leaving out all of the women chasing though is a tall order for many. 🤣🤣 These would do better going to different destinations. Also one can still can be harmed while not consciously resisting a robbery. It's instinct to pull back when someone surprisingly puts hands on you or whatever you are holding. And even while passive as a lamb a nervous bandit can pull the trigger by accident. Though the Colombian police will always claim that the victim resisted. Victim blaming is deeply engrained in the culture, while blaming the tourist goes further to protect the national image while offsetting their obligations to clean up the streets.
How is UBER safer than taxi? Is there reason for it?
Yeah Uber is an app that vets their drivers a bit better than taxis.
This is a rhetorical question. I guess common sense is not so common.
@@MedellinBuzz how do you know that? Uber is illegal in Colombia. You saying that cab companies do not check backgrounds of drivers?
@@GermanGonzalez-fm7yr common sense tells you that Uber is safer? Do you have any facts to support this?
@@Stephen_567 first of all Uber is not illegal in Colombia. Second, anyone can buy a taxi and hire someone, so it's not all big taxi companies (which I'm assuming for the most part do background checks) but there are many independents. If you've ever been to Colombia or a country like it where there are many independent taxis with hired drivers, you'd understand the difference.
Very useful info. It’s incredible 😮how many men in their 20-30-40s need to know these extremely basic principles of common sense. They got robbed after bringing 2 girls they just met on the street and they complain Colombia is very dangerous 😮
50s and 60s too
June 16, 2024
Having resided in Medellin for
three years, the last year seems to have seen a spike in crime.
While sitting at Suramerica Metro, having a tinto. Street guy approaches begging for a cigarette...refused. Street guy wants to swap a pair of scissors (10,000cop?)...i refuse, he grabs my umbrella, threatens me with the shears. I recover the umbrella, start walking stairs into metro station...street guy attempts to kick my feet from under me. Bystanders have called the police. Street guy exits the scene...police arrive, 15 minutes later. Cruise the area...nothing.
One week later having another tinto, different location...street guy is now paying for his own tinto AND cigarette. See's me...departs.
Police can't seem to locate this guy...same neighborhood. Funny...peculair...paranoia?
Doesn’t seem out of the ordinary. Been here for 14 years and those things happen. Hasn’t happens to me. I do wish a guy would try that though lol.
From some of these comments, people are making it seem like you will get robbed or hurt by just being on a tour with a company.
Is that the case?
I traveled to multiple countries and common sense goes a long way. I'm sure the same rules apply to Colombia correct? Don't act a fool, don't bring anyone home, don't take drugs, don't be flashy, etc etc.....
I’ve been thinking of immigrating, but he just makes it sound so unfriendly. What if I do meet a girl in one of these places? Is Medellin now entirely too dangerous to pick up girls?
It’s dangerous if you’re a desperate sex tourist. I thought I made it very clear. Maybe I should have made it clearer.
@@MedellinBuzz💯
Thanks for this awesome. I think we need a new Colombia Podcast episode to discuss this. Hoping for some.of that in 2024!
Why even go to a country with so many don'ts ? there are 180 countries on this planet.
If you take one look at this guy in the video and follow his coward ass advice, what does that make you?
Yep if your scared go to church, as they’d say
Didn't understand last rule...I don't invite to me or i don't go to her ?
Don't do either it's not a hook up culture, romance happens through associates or mutual hobbies, any girl approaching you is either looking to get paid for offering sex services or looking to rob you.
I was wondering the same question. He needs to address this.
Both. If you don't know her, don't let her come over and/or don't go over to her place.
We absolutely loved Medellin and felt safer walking at night than downtown Los Angeles!!!! We pick Medellin over LA any day.
Great advice and common sense prevails anywhere in the world.
Nice 👍
Why would you want to visit a city where you have to be on guard everyday
The good news is that you don’t
Don't go period... if you go hire a cartel.
Yep, it's a scary place for some people. But for those that want to come there are some tips.
do u think the authorities will intervene more if the tourism slows down. because now it seems the incidents have increased more and its being reported more, i cant imagine that Colombia is happy with the negative image
The government cannot change the hearts of people. You can sense the cops are not motivated to help visitors.
Yeah I think the new mayor will have a plan.
Nobody cares, gringos are looked at as dirty sexpats druggies by the locals.
Los Japoneses dicen. Si NO es tuyo es por que es de alguien. LATAM NO tiene concepto de esto
I have been in colombia for 7 years now and have a phone snatched out my hand by a moto thief that's it ! I ride a expensive BMW moto and generally mingle with people with the same taste. 85 thousand kms of travel in Colombia no problems in some of the the most beautiful places on earth. Eye contact and some serious Body language is my weapon it discourages the robber ,I can spot the bad guy a block away and they know I mean buisness so nobody messes with me.
I am 63 and have been around the world many times and was in Colombia in 1981 for 3 months. I stay away from major cities in Co. Bucaramanga is big enough for me but I live in Floridablanca . The animal world applies in Colombia If you look vulnerable the robber can see this
Exactly 💯 percent correct! If you look like an easy target, you will be, and that goes any place on this planet! Medellin was amazing and I was alone wearing jewelry and designer clothes everyday!
SAFETY TIP " DONT GO TO COLOMBIA"
That's a no-brainer. That's like saying the best way to avoid an STD is to not have sex. This video is for those who know some of the risks, maybe have been here before, and are planning to be in Medellin in 2024.
I was going to go to Medellin to visit a childhood friend,,, early this summer. He lives in Medellin, he got jumped by a biker and they took his cell and scooter...he got freaked out over it and so did I. That is why i didn't go. I love Latin America...but safety is the issue.
Just go travel to Dominican Republic everyone down there just want to drink and have fun and there’s a lot of women. And remember vacation is about relaxing not being paranoid.
Or just stop treating women like sex objects and nothing bad will happen
I've been to DR, I agree 💯%
So if I want to go out to a party on El Poblado, I should take only my burner phone (with Google Wallet) and still be safe?
Or should I never leave the house when it's dark if I'm alone?
Want to rent in Laureles...
How dangoures is it for a solo male?
don't try to go for the hookers, just try to go and maybe meet a solid Colombian or tourist at a party. not to take her home the same night, just dating.
please explain more on this :)
Solo male, you're fine. Just don't wear a Rolex or gold chains, don't get blackout drunk and crazy with drugs, and don't invite strangers over to your house.
@@MedellinBuzz
Got it.just book a flight. thanks for your videos :)
If men look for sex , better go to pereira, bucarmanga, teusaquillo , ibague. Its kind of more secure.
Tip number 1: Don't go!
That's a no-brainer. This video is for those that have decided to come despite knowing the risks.
@@MedellinBuzz Fair enough.
But I only want to go down there for Pablo Escobar stuff
lol dangit!
don’t look for drugs and girls if you do that anywhere your looking for trouble . if your a party animal getting messed up your an easy target anywhere . Oh wait just don’t be stupid and you’ll be ok
I think most of the people exaggerate things. If you have any common sense/decency absolutely nothing is gonna happen.
I stayed in Medellin for two weeks. I always went out alone dressed elegant with iPhone, watch and passport on me ( some places require ID to let you in) and absolutely nothing happened.
I dated eight girls and brought five home on the first date. No problem.
You really need to be a complete idiot to have something like that happening to you. I don’t drink, don’t do drugs, dont use taxi that are not Uber, don’t use cash (the atm charge is enough to stop me from getting any but you don’t need it anyway because of contactless).
You just need to avoid drinks from strangers, leaving your drink unattended, go for a walk in a ghetto alone at 3am covered in gold and getting in a random car with a random girl. I don’t know about you but I find all these things very easy to avoid. That’s why I’m not a big fan of this terrorism everybody keeps spreading.
You said everything I wanted to say, but didn't care enough to type! These TH-camrs are pussies with cameras! I was in Medellin with 10k worth of gold and diamond jewelry on, designer clothes daily and iPhone! Not one incident, even encountered drug dealers, etc!
Turistos de sexism no aprende tienes una cabeza duro
It’s crazy people have to make TH-cam video like this
Yeah, hopefully 2024 will be better.
Holly propaganda lol. What makes it obvious is everyone putting out these videos at the same time.
Yep, if this was a very nice, all good news video, you wouldn't have seen it probably.
@@MedellinBuzz or that... click bait lol. A little S.E.O.
@@punnymoney3692 yep clickbait is part of TH-cam seo. You can bait them to click but you gotta retain them. Thanks for helping. Cheers.
@@MedellinBuzz do you offer like a tour? I need someone to watch my back.
No, sorry, I don't.@@punnymoney3692
Rule #0 - Stop going. No excuse.
@@tyreeballard that’s a good rule for you.
Can’t find that WhatsApp group
My mother is Colombian and this is not a vacation. I will suggest that they’re better and safer vacation options. I visited Manila and that city is just as rough looking as bogota. But I did not hear about any tourist being drugged or robbed.
Yep, many people will come in 2024, this might break 2023's record for tourism.
@@MedellinBuzz I have family in Bello ! I don’t like being around tourists. I personally don’t set foot in Medellin or Cartagena. However, if I were not familiar with or have family in Colombia. I personally would not waste my time because it’s not vacation. When you have to watch every motorbike with two people, and wondering if you’re going to be kidnapped by a taxi driver. Uber isn’t exactly that safe I have heard of Uber drivers being in on robberies of tourists in bogota
yep I absolutely agree if you're scared, stay away. It's no way to live.
@@JayLove-zk7pj
Can I drive around in my imaginary Lamborghini?
nope, that'll get robbed too. lol
Some people do but the problem is maintenance. There are no Lamborghini dealerships and the Audi dealerships cannot do everything.
I had this happen i the police came its dangerous
Thanks for this but it will get worse as the coming massive life changing economic collapse hits and it's then open house on foreigners.
Don't worry, I have no reason to go down there.
Trust me, I’m not worried 😂
You’ll be missed.
@@gitsome7118 I bet Columbia is beautiful in some spots, but I know not to fuck around down that way if I go, that was Pablo's and Berna's turf at one time.
People getting kill overthere just don’t go
Exactly. I tell everyone that if you're scared, stay away, it's not for you.
Common sense is not common.
Hey going back in a few weeks. Can uber come to the airport now?
Yes it can but taxis there don’t like them so they’ll make you meet them somewhere. I always just use my private driver.
@MedellinBuzz I have a driver too but taxes me too much Lol! Was trying to do the old school way when I first visited medellin. I'll try Tapsi cabify, it's just that those cars or so tiny from what I remember
so basically ... dont go to Medellin. stay in bogota lol in the embassy area lmao
Why go somewhere where you need to watch your back 24/7 use your heads, not worth it.
The good news is that you don't.
With the peso strenthening there will be less Pookies and Ray Rays going to Colombia in 2024
There were over 1.5 million tourists to Medellin in 2023. I presume there will be more in 2024.
Women and alcohol will always lead to trouble 😅
Yes for foolish men
ridiculous that you need to make a safety tip video If you really are concern about your safety it is best not to go there att all
I don’t need to. I want to.
all these tips are useless. once you get zipped tide and bagged up. the only thing you'll need is your phone to call in the Money transfer. which could possibly save your life. the only way to stay safe is don't go outside or don't go at all.
Exactly, it's like...what's the best way to avoid an STD, don't have sex at all. These tips are for those aware of the dangers and still want to come.
How could I avoid looking like a tourist I'm european, white 6.1 ft, blonde hair blue eyes 😂
Easiest advice JUST DONT GO TO COLOMBIA or any countries territory thats not safe for tourist!
Yep, it's a scary place for some people. But for those that want to come there are some tips.
I go to Colombia all the time the women are beautiful I’ve never had one problem,it’s nothing like what TH-camrs describe,all the negativity keeps the p*ssy price very reasonable,so life is not perfect,crime scares tourists leaves more girls
