Colombia was something else! Starting from the airport, we met some friendliest and happiest people on earth – locals AND expats from around the world, very helpful cops and a one that asked for a payout (story for another time), cabbies who would go any length to help us even with our very limited Spanish skills.
Colombia was unforgettable, abundant wild life / night life, food and is full of life. On top of all that, it’s super affordable. Come find out for yourselves.
We landed in Bogota around 5am, By 8am we were at our hotel, unload and ready to go. We hit the road to the unknown world of Colombia. Visited Usaquén market, had some food and drinks, by 5pm we were in love with Bogota and Colombia in general.
It is a clean, modern city with metro subway and plenty of sky-scrapers. As in any large city, traffic here was awful, but we didn’t mind since everything was new to us. We explored this city for 6 days staying at ICON 48 and we plan to return here, may be even for a longer stay (year or two), some day.
