      Awesome hermanito! Asi es que se vive la vida. "Azuca!" Celia Cruz style. It's an experiment with this style of vlogging and if you are feeling it and have good feedback, then include it in your repertoire of styles to use on your channel. Siga su corazon ❤️ carnal.

    I’m really happy for you Marshall. I myself was In colombia for a month and I have to say I miss it more than anything. The last place I visited was Cali, Colombia and also experienced some of the crazy but I wouldn’t change it for anything. I wake up sometimes crying from missing the life in Cali. I miss the papayas, coffee, avocados and beautiful people.. I left my heart in colombia but plan to go soon again.

      Great!
      Ironically, I’m from Colombia, from a city close to Cali (Armenia, coffee area, 3 hours away), but l also live here in LA, in Pasadena.
      I loved when we were teenagers and used to go to Cali once or twice a year to visit our family there. We had so much fun in the city… it would be so nice to go back there.

      @@byrlink omg stop it we are practically neighbors here. I go to Pasadena all the time for some stater brothers. Honestly hopping to back this or next and think I will. I completely understand that feeling. I grew up the same way but going to Mexico every summer and some of my best memories. Visiting Armenia is also part of the plan have heard many great things. Honestly I fell in love with Cali it only took two weeks. I see myself going many times back now. Maybe we should meet up and trade stories. I do know some great places to eat in Pasadena.

    New follower my friend. I learned from you from Gran Colombia. Glad to be able to find you and connect with someone that can bring a different perspective of Colombia. Am a Puertorrican but moved to Tampa Bay Florida almost 30 years ago. Now married to a Caleña! I was able to discover my dream second home, Colombia. I love El Quindio (Pijao, Buenavista, Salento). We visited Bogota and next trip was to Medellin before the pandemic cancel any plans. Looking forward to travel through your videos and see more from my beautiful Colombia. Thanks for your hard work on putting some great content in your channel. Good luck and keep the good work.

    I am in Pereira too, but with my same-sex Colombian spouse. We almost took off for Uruguay, or Argentina when things got bad with the protests and violence. Things have stabilized to some extent now. I am waiting for my spouse to finish his training at the university before we try to decide where we are going longterm. If we were to stay in Colombia longterm, I lean toward living in Cartagena or Santa Marta. We are looking at the U.S.( U.S. Immigration is an absolute pain), Spain, Uruguay, Panama...

    Even though it's none of my business I end up ranking the various non-Colombian vloggers about Colombia, mostly about how much they're really about Colombia rather than about themselves. (Nothing wrong with being about yourself, I should note, just that it doesn't interest me in a vlog about Colombia.). This is the first video of yours that I've seen and I am very glad that you're really about Colombia! Again, nothing against some of the others, some of them annoy me but that's my problem not theirs, but i really liked your attitude and approach.

    Be careful if you become involved with Colombians as far as living together. Once you live together for a specific amount of time, Colombian law allows them a legal right to I think half your stuff. The legal system would consider you like married with rights to your assets, etc. I think the minimum time limit might be 2 years sharing a place together with someone in Colombia, but be aware of that and find out the facts.

    Marshall i like your channel and have been watching it for a long time. One thing I’ve noticed about you is that you seem to be a very indecisive young man. You were indecisive at 24/25 and at 30 years old you are still indecisive. My concern is that you will be even more indecisive at 35. Get it together. Learn to make a decision and stick with it.

    • @Marshall.Powell
      @Marshall.Powell  3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      JB, I agree completely. I am indecisive, and very emotionally driven. It's how I've always been, and wouldn't be surprised if it's how I'll always be. Those were the cards I was dealt, and I fully embrace my personality of making decisions and changing directions on a whim. I don't see any benefit in forcing myself to stick with a decision just for the sake of sticking with it. It's my life that I enjoy very much, and I'll always do what my gut tells me to. If that's not something that works for you as a viewer, I encourage you to find TH-camrs who are more consistent in their direction.
