Wouldn’t you think that if we were visiting a Caribbean coastal town that we’d be hitting the beach? Not us. We came for the food.
Guatapé and Glamping
We met Justin, an expat from Utah, at our Medellin Airbnb and he suggested Guatapé as a ‘must see’ destination for our travels. Located just a few hours east of town (a $9 bus fare), we arrived in the cutest town we’d seen so far — fairytale city of colorful houses and shops.
Medellín - The Terracotta City
Medellin, the city of transformation. We heard from many travelers about how they loved it, so we decided to hang out here for a few weeks. Travel is exhausting, so our plan was to extend our stay in select locations from time to time to give ourselves a moment of ‘normal life,’ to get off the tourist circuit. This was our place to chill.
The Streets of Bogota
“How many of your parents are concerned that you’ll be murdered by the Colombian drug cartel while you’re here?” asked our guide, Jeff. Pretty much everyone in our tour group raised their hands. That’s how our first tour of Bogota began.
