Description

What happens when you combine 20+ years of boots-on-the-ground experience, a country full of misunderstood opportunity, and a group of freedom-minded investors? You get the Colombia Expat Exploration and Investment Tour, where this November I’ll be guiding a group of 25+ freedom-seekers like yourself through this underrated and often misunderstood country. 

In today’s episode, I reveal exactly why Colombia might be the most undervalued gem in Latin America today. From exploring residency to viewing off-market deals in-person, this isn’t some guided sightseeing trip—it’s your fast track to making bold moves in a country that rewards the brave. Get the full breakdown of the upcoming 7-day experience and hear from the Colombian insiders helping make it all happen.

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE:



  • Tune in to learn why Medellín is beating Bogotá as the expat capital of Colombia—and what most outsiders get dead wrong about it

  • Listen in and hear how a remote region of Colombia became ground zero for one of the most ambitious land plays in our community’s history

  • Get the inside scoop on how an innovative, private community-backed project is now opening its doors for the first time

  • Find out how Colombia’s “bad reputation” might be the best news possible for early investors

If you have been thinking about Panama, then I want to make an invitation to you today.
Come join me for a special four-day tour to see if the country I call home is right for you and your family.
