    I had the opposite experience in Colombia. A bad taxi driver stole my iPhone in Medellín. I tracked the phone to a bad neighborhood in the south where he changed the phone’s name to Juan’s iPhone. The cops were more professional and helpful than I’ve experienced anywhere else in the world. They met me in the neighborhood and we tracked the phone to a six story apartment building. I assumed that was the end of it, because I knew the location but not what floor of the building it was on, but the cops said they knew of a taxi driver with a reputation for stealing phones. We went to his apartment and knocked. In that moment my iPhone went offline, so it was obvious he was there and knew the cops had found him. The police asked us to go to our taxi and pretend to leave. Meanwhile they wandered the neighborhood pretending they were still trying to track the phone. The trick worked. The phone thief made a run for it and we caught him. I was blown away by how effective and dedicated the Medellín police were.

      @@TheFruitingChamber of course I used a passcode. Not sure how he got around it, but I know the thief jailbroke the phone, and I was surprised I could still track it after he did that. I could have simply reported it lost/stolen to Apple to make the phone useless to him, but fortunately I didn’t immediately do that because I wanted to try to recover it first.

    you gotta be pretty street savvy in Colombia, I typically visited less touristy places, but typically left my jewelry, phone, passport, most cash in the hotel rooms safe and only brought $20 a passport copy with me, when walking around the city. If two guys on a bike pull up next to you and stick a gun to your head, thats pretty easy to give up. Also, not dressing like a tourist and walking around with a backpack and all that, is a pretty good idea. Just trying to blend in and always being aware of your surroundings

Unfortunately this is what is happening know . When they kidnap their victims they don’t care if they have anything on them because they know they would get it through torture . The lucky ones are released alive but most simply disappear . Colombia is just not worth it

    I was raised in Cartagena until 06', my parents used to take my siblings and I to Tairona every summer in our Renault wagon. We also went into the Sierra Nevada, beautiful jungle with ice cold rivers. It used to be way less popular and crowded in the early 90's! Very Fond memories. Sadly Cartagena has been going through a very rough spot since covid and since illegal immigration from Venezuela. The future looked extremely bright in 2010ish, but horrible city management, overbuilding, overtourism, sex tourism, drug tourism, violence etc. has almost completely ruined the city. It's just a mere shadow of how tranquil and beautiful the city used to be. In my 18 years living there I never got robbed or never heard of anyone I knew experiencing it, but nowadays, I'm not surprised, especially in the area you were walking through.
    The cops are just extremely underpaid (and sometimes not even paid) locals who have extremely low morale and motivation....unless you bribe them.

    Maybe i have lived in NYC for to long, but when a street thief snatches your phone & a random Colombian with a gun intervenes, gets your phone back you video title should be Colombian superhero saves me from my own stupidity rather than your robbery aspect of it. The cops realized you got your phone back eventually. Moved on to a quick English lesson, Cartagena sounds cool as.

    I know the feeling after being robbed, but you indeed got very lucky. These things tend to happen when you least expect them. I got mugged in the center of Rio De Janeiro - they took everything except for my clothes. This was not even the only such happening there. Kidnappings are also common in South America. Most people are good but you never know who is the mugger low-life or tries to scam you. Don't look too rich, or avoid acting like a confused tourist is my advice.

    Protection of tourists is SO important for a developing country. Otherwise it prevents tourists from visiting and creates a bad reputation for the whole country. Even the smallest of crimes has a MASSIVE impact. Columbia the one country this guy gets robbed in. Quite telling.

      He wasn't robbed because he still has his phone. It was an attempted robbery. And he has no proof. I got my windshield smashed in, had texts from the guy who did it, knew his address, and the cops still couldn't do anything except write a report and tell me I had the option to take him to court. Which I did. But what do you expect? Lol

    New to your channel, but I think it's pretty awesome. The one bizarre thing though is that you sound so familiar when i hear you speak. I think its because your mannerisms and sayings sound exactly the way my friends and I sound when we're around each other. Hopefully you take that as a compliment. Anyways keep up the good work, and maybe we'll swing by Patreon soon as well. Thanks again

    Even in the States cops don't do much when you get robbed. They'll file a police report and tell you that they will look into it and you probably won't hear much from them after that, unless it's an extremely easy case to solve.

    Hey bro as a Colombian-American from NYC who has been to 20 countries and counting, you're going to get robbed when you walk around a third world country with technology found in mostly upscale countries. Even if you don't get robbed, you're asking for it. Not saying you shouldn't make these travel vlogs but you can't be so shocked when you are drawing a lot of attention on yourself. Keep up the great work bro, stay safe!

    Im a decently experienced traveler. Backpacked Mexico, Thailand, and i have a family house i visit in Jamaica often. Semi fluent in Spanish and let me tell you, Cartagena is no joke. There's a lot of positives but the negatives really cancel it out. Fun party scene but man it gets tiring needing to watch your back all the time. I thought i knew all the extortion tricks at playa Hollywood but they tried to pull something on me. Rented umbrella, table, chairs for set price. Lets say 40. Then we drank the tequila we brought for a while. Went to pay and leave and they tried to charge 300usd. Reason was we were drinking on their table? 5 guys surrounded the 2 of us and i argued back in spanish w them. After several minutes i offered 65 and they took it. Still, idk what wouldve happened if a person didnt know spanish. Im not disparaging a whole country. Id like to see more of Colombia bc im sure its better than cartagena. Those hagglers on the beach put the Jamaicans to shame. Ive felt safe in tourist spots like cabo san lucas and negril and non tourist like the jamaican bush, mexico city, and chiapas. But cartagena is the wild west.

HIGHLY recommended ... the locals are very friendly , , the town is very historic , the hotel was super nice , the food was fantastic and we took a hike into the jungle and repelled in a 100ft waterfall ....

    Does not matter if you are a tourist or a local as far as flashing expensive items on your person. Inside the walls of Cartagena one is pretty safe because of concentration of police and you are in a contained area. But outside the walls in the street is a different situation and Cartagena neighborhoods beyond the condos are people scrapping for a living.
