What do people like (and dislike) about Bucaramanga?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Bucaramanga, they replied...
"Amazing people, high affordability, super dog-friendly and no expats thus far, which I consider a plus. I have no interest in listening to aging hippies caterwauling about Trump for the next 10 years. English is not spoken here, which is splendid expat repellant. The people could not be more wonderful, kind and helpful. The city and mountain view from my 16th floor unit is incredible. It was ridiculously cheap in a great area. Great decision, I would do it again without hesitation," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Bucaramanga, Colombia.
