Hey Mr E, out of the 5 total post on that person's profile, 4 of the post are promoting Escort Sites. He just wanted to post click bait and promote that Escort Site.

Naw. All the sites in Colombia are not down. Something is either wrong on your end or you are doing something wrong. Maybe you are just trying to push people to that site you just promoted, I mean posted.

All is well now for sure. I was referring to back in Jan when he took office, started talking about first actions being strict tariffs, trade wars, and many didn't take him seriously and then walstreet got hurt but Asian markets got crippled badly. Just saying to take the man to his words sometimes; Like what's happening now with the US, VZ and Col isn't just rumors, real crap is being boiled and Colombia's eco's about to go to sht, or serious retaliation could be in effect. So expats living there or US citizens traveling to Col should be careful.

LatAm has a very long history of hating the American government and loving Americans. Especially American dollars.

Looks like you are a side of caution person. Myself, I am an only live once person. Just like during covid when folks were scared to go outside. Meanwhile I was in Santa Fe and downtown Medellin without a poke. My advice as always is to turn off the TV and internet and go see what folks are doing outside in the real world. I am in Bogota on my way to Cartagena and everything is the same as it always has been. Most people here would have no idea of what you are even talking about. Big difference between government shit and regular everyday people shit.

There is a pharmacy in Laureles-Estadio that has two 50 MG tablets of sildenafil for 2 mil, about 25 cents a tablet. They work as well as any others for me. Name: Super Pharma, Calle 44 A #72-14. It's open from 8 am to 8 pm.

If you weren't invested in international funds, did you leave your investments as they were? The market has hit all time highs numerous times in the past month, much higher than they were in January / February. I'm disappointed I didn't invest during that downturn. I even mentioned to someone that I planned to invest.

In January I lost a shitload amount in my investments in the market bc I was thinking like you, was nonchalant about the tariffs blah blah. Then market went to crap and incurred extremely huge losses.

Anyone knows where are these 2 places in Colombia, that PovMan uses for his porn movies?

Regardless of what you hear in the news, there is still major economic trade between Colombia and the United States. So there is a lot of regular travel, not just for tourism, but also for business and even for families. The Colombian peso remains quite strong against the USA Dollar compared to how it was a year ago, and the current news haven't changed it much. There are always people pulled aside at customs who just don't feel or look right. And there are always custom officers who will claim whatever reason for it. I don't think that there is any current action happening directly because of the politics between both countries. And by the way, President Petro can travel to the USA In his role as President of Colombia. He cannot, however, travel as a private visitor, which he wasn't planning to do since he is President. In other words, the visa that they pulled was his personal travel visa, not his diplomatic one. When something real happens that actually affects the Colombian economy in a significant way, I think you will see it by a significant change in the exchange rate beyond the current small dips and rises.

While I am indeed an optimist, I think you're downplaying this a bit. I wasn't sure if there was a diff in Petro's personal or Diplomatic visa now tht you mentioned it, and it's actually all his access that's revoked incl Diplomatic after I searched. Then the Col foreign minister also voluntarily renounced her visa, and Petro rebutted that he doesn't care and has Intl access to any UN base and that's that. You talk of trade, and you already know higher tariffs are next. Just like China and that's already in the works, per the devil's mouth himself. In January I lost a shitload amount in my investments in the market bc I was thinking like you, was nonchalant about the tariffs blah blah. Then market went to crap and incurred extremely huge losses. This dude in our WH doesn't play and shit is boiling w Colombia. Two days 10/19 he said prez Petro's an illegal drug dealer, already signed exec order to suspend funds, and also to increase trade tariffs. Hasn't taken effect yet and it's why the COL peso didn't tank yet. We about to have a disaster. Already in the works.

Just saying I'd have more of a watchful eye while I still hope your right and I can come spend another 6 Months as usual Come December.

Concerning Immigration at MDE, my next trip, I will enter Colombia via Bogot, not because of possible searches at MDE, but because MDE Immigration has multi-hour lines. Last time I went, there was only one person working Immigration at MDE.

How long ago was that? Because recent reports indicate that they seem to have added extra people and the lines have gotten a lot shorter.

Yo. I know we don't talk politics here, so just a brief note and check on what y'all think the current events. Which directly affects our travel to Col especially Mde. Is it safer to not take a trip there? Especially with the heavy headbutts happening between Prez Petro and Ours? Heck based on a YT vid, one of the guys held up and interrogated at the Airport was told by the officer that they're doing that bc of what our guy is doing in the WH to them. Like the crack down against dr. You GS or the cash subsidy being withheld. Even a US passport revocation of Prez Petro LOL. I mean he got to feel some kind of way that he can't travel to the US yet its citizens are still coming. Retaliation makes sense.

If you already live there, you prob don't gaf as I wouldn't. But what's the take and feel on those not on the ground right now?

[Combo]

Yes, incorrect. It is a normal, somewhat upscale area populated 98% by Colombians. I recommend it because it is reasonably safe, reasonably central, and has good restaurants and shopping.

And some might prefer it because it's relatively flat which makes for easier walking. Which is unusual in Medellin.
