The Black Expat: Redefining a Successful...

Tamara Marie
About this episode

Can you imagine living on only $300 USD/month?  That's exactly what Jamarr Black did when he first moved to Cali, Colombia.  In part 2 of our conversation, Jamarr shares how much money you need to live comfortably in Cali--including the cost of health care. 

I asked him about the best places to dance salsa in the area, and how Americans are treated by the locals and the police. 

Jamarr also shares his #1 piece of advice for anyone thinking about moving abroad but is still on the fence.
