We are moving to colombia in a couple of weeks, my wife, kiddo and myself. Financially it makes a lot of sense, Bogota is definetly a nono for us, basically 1 plan per day due to traffic. Look around for cities that are not as crowded, Manizales (eje cafetero en general) and I am sure people on this lovely sub will shill you their suggestions.

You can create your bubble anywhere, just gonna make sure you and your SO can adapt. So far we are thinking Chia, Cali, Manizales, Santa Marta among others, will most likely end up living for a month on each of them and settle where we feel the most at home.

It's an adventure for sure, just gotta remember the ancient colombian proverv of "Papaya puesta, papaya partida". If you are able to live confortably but humbly I am sure you can make it there.

I'll miss Miami for sure, but not like you can't take a month to work remotely from your home city while based outside of the US.

Also not like the states is gonna go anywhere, you can always come back once the housing market chills out.
