These are the trending news headlines in Colombia on Monday April 10, 2023

The Nevado del Ruiz volcano in Colombia, responsible for one of the largest disasters in the Western Hemisphere, is showing signs of increased activity. Experts have detected an earthquake swarm not seen since the eruption in the 1980s that killed at least 25,000 people. The Colombian government has issued evacuations in the potential impact zone and raised the alert level to orange, the second-highest on a four-stage scale. An estimated 57,000 people live in municipalities close to the volcano. The last major eruption occurred in 1985, killing thousands. The US Geological Survey recounted that "Sadly, the lahars reached Armero approximately two hours after the eruption - plenty of time for the people to have evacuated to higher ground, had they been notified more quickly."

Controversy has erupted in Colombia after Onlyfans adult film actress Katty Blake posted a video of herself performing a sex act in public at the Rock of Guatapé. The 721-foot-high (220 meters) natural landmark is considered a national treasure and La Piedra, the tourist center that manages the site, has vowed to take legal action against all those involved in the video. The incident sparked national outrage and generated widespread media coverage in Colombia. Blake and her partner Zac, who filmed the video, may face legal trouble, and residents of Guatapé, the town near the rock, are particularly incensed, having experienced similar incidents of public indecency in recent times.

Colombia has launched a new digital nomad visa, making it one of the most accessible options for remote workers looking for an affordable place to live. The visa will allow successful applicants to stay in the country for up to two years, compared to the 90-day limit for Americans without a visa. Applicants will need to show proof of employment or self-employment and earnings of at least 655 US dollars per month, as well as proof of health insurance. Colombia’s vibrant culture, diverse landscapes, and low cost of living have long attracted digital nomads, making this visa a great option for those seeking a long-term stay.
