As we mentioned last week, Colombians are crazy for Christmas. Lights, nativity scenes and massive sculptures are just some of the things you might encounter if you spend Christmas in Colombia. Today we wanted to share some snaps we took of the Christmas decorations in Bogota, feel free to share any more you may have! Later on this week, Carolina will be sharing her pictures of Medellin’s Christmas lights…
