I'm getting restless again.

It's been nearly 2 years since I went to S.E Asia. I was thinking for ages about going back as I now have a fairly decent passive income and could potentially live/travel there for a while. However, I figured I should try somewhere else rather than go back over old ground. So now I'm really considering South America.

I would be working on my business mainly and not backpacking around a lot like before so I figured a place like Medellin would be a good start. I'm a bit put off by the "Digital Nomad" tag though. I hate the term and don't like associating with those types in general but I hear that Medellin is full of them. I just want to mind my own business and earn some remote cash, not pretend I'm a big shot selling shitty info products. I'm also a bit put off by the cocaine tourism etc and this obsession with Escobar that people see to have. Is Medellin a good place to start in Columbia? Is the rest of the country still really fucking dangerous?

Any good recommendations for other places to live/work remotely as a Westerner in South America? I'm in my 30s now so not really interested in partying TOO much or developing a coke habit. The women fascinate me but in all honesty, I probably have no chance in that area as my game is terrible and my Spanish mediocre at best (although I am practicing daily)

South America "nomad" general I guess
