Known as the City of Flowers, Medellin may have some fame as a narco-city thanks to its wayward son Pablo Escobar, but that is long in the past. In 2013 it was named the ‘Most Innovative City in the World’ by the Wall Street Journal, and life in Medellin is cheap, fun and energetic.
The El Poblado and Laureles areas are the most popular for expats moving abroad, with steep hills and charming terracotta buildings. You’ll see farmer’s markets, street food, dancing and colour wherever you go, and you’ll never have to spend much.
