Real advice from someone who lives here, so you don't waste time or money figuring it out yourself🤔 🌴Only a local could give you this much insider info (that's me!) Info here: medellinunmapped.gumroad.com/l/mdeguide
Sleeping in an airplane in the middle of the canopy sounds cool. And it' close to Medellín too. One of the most unique hotels I've seen here. 📍Ícaro Retreat
It's a good sign for tourism that foreigners are venturing more into the countryside. This is a nice ecohotel, reviewed by a Gringa (she loved it)😅 📍Cerro Tusa Springs
Juan Valdez is a Paisa archetype. The Colombian Coffee Growers Federation commissioned the American agency Doyle Dane Bernbach in the 1950s to create a campaign to position Colombian coffee globally. They invented a character, Juan Valdez, who would represent the coffee…

Why is the Colombian Pacific Coast so empty?
Foreigners who live in LatAm and support Russia, Iran, and China are disconnected from reality. No, it’s not their “turn” to exert power and influence here. Fuck your chessboard game mentality. We don’t want dictatorships and theocracies in our region.
🇨🇴You can just buy a small traditional house in the countryside and remodel it to your taste. Or leave it as is

I gotta say, American men are probably the ones most mistreated by their own women. Bros, I promise you it's not the same everywhere else lol. It's kinda sad to see. No wonder a Latina/Asian gf is becoming an aspiration for many Gringos.
This year's flower arrangement at Santa Fe Mall 💯 It's a showpiece for the Medellín Flower Festival, held every year from late July to early August.
Medellín and Cali have the best accents in Colombia. Don’t argue🤔
💰Pereira has some crazy houses, especially in the Cerritos area. A lot of money over there, and it's becoming popular with foreigers too.
Same spot during the day 👀 This area has some of the most picturesque scenery you can enjoy near Medellín. Just an hour from the city.
Tbf this is not some random town. The surrounding area has one of the highest GDPs per capita in the country. 📍El Retiro, Antioquia
🔥Safety in Medellín has seen a huge improvement this year. Between January and June: - Street robberies dropped by 31% - Motorcycle theft went down by 38% - Car theft fell by 43% - Home break-ins dropped by 33% - Business theft saw a big drop of 54% - Cases of personal injury…
Speakeasies are now a thing in Medellín, apparently. Decent spots for a date ngl.
