Há alguns anos, fiz trabalho voluntário na Colômbia e me apaixonei pelo país. Agora que trabalho como nômade digital, decidi voltar para morar lá e conhecer melhor o país. Entrei em contato com a USP Consultancy para me ajudarem com o visto. Sou do Brasil e não falo espanhol muito bem; agradeço muito a paciência da equipe em me explicar tudo durante a consulta. Eles me orientaram em todas as etapas do processo e, hoje, posso viver e trabalhar na Colômbia.Posted on Google![]()

I came to Colombia with a Digital Nomad Visa, but later decided to open a business here. The team explained that I needed to change my visa type before starting the company registration process. They guided me through every step, answered all my questions, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommended!Posted on Google![]()
