With global stars like Feid, Karol G, and Maluma, world-class concerts, and high-level business, Medellín is on everyone’s lips in the global digital nomad community. But what is it about this Colombian city that attracts so many remote professionals from all over the world? Here are some key reasons, along with ideas to start dreaming about your “paisa” adventure.
1. Quality of Life at a Reasonable Cost
Let’s be honest, budget matters. In Medellín, you can enjoy an excellent quality of life, great food, cultural activities, and a comfortable public transport system like the metro, all without breaking the bank like in other major global cities. This allows you to invest more in experiences, personal development, or simply save a bit extra.
2. The “Eternal Spring” Climate
Forget harsh winters or oppressive summers. Medellín boasts an average temperature of 22°C (72°F) almost all year round. This pleasant climate is not only perfect for comfortable work but also invites you to enjoy the outdoors whenever you wish.
3. Connectivity and Remote Work Facilities
The city has invested in infrastructure, and the internet connection is generally robust, especially in areas popular with expats and in spaces like colivings. You’ll find a growing network of restaurants and coffee shops with good Wi-Fi, coworking spaces, and, of course, colivings like Kiin Living, designed with all the amenities to ensure your productivity knows no bounds: from high-speed internet to inspiring work areas and, of course, excellent Colombian coffee!
4. A Safe Place for Women to Live Freely
Medellín boasts an entire infrastructure for new women entrepreneurs, fostering a vibrant community of successful women with unique experiences and a network that allows for the creation of high-quality businesses. Furthermore, the respect shown towards women, from locals to foreigners, is something we are proud of here.
