There are tons of benefits of moving your livelihood to Colombia – the land of rumba and salsa!
Expats enjoy relocating to this country as it’s an affordable alternative to many of their native homelands and offers many employment and entertainment opportunities.
Housing and food are quite cheap considering the high quality of life. Natural and urban landscapes are captivating enough to provide ultimate recreation all-year-round. Colombians are friendly and passionate people who certainly know how to spice up the vibrant nightlife that’s in abundance in Bogotá and the rest of the country.
Needless to say, moving to this South American country comes at a cost. To transport all of your personal items to Bogotá, Medellín, Barranquilla, or any other place in Colombia, you’d need to hire a shipping container (20-feet or 40-feet sized).
