Like neighbouring cities Armenia and Manizales, Pereira is surrounded by stunning, varied scenery and boasts incredible natural resources. The city is surrounded by the Otun an Consota Rivers and looming over the horizon are the snow-capped peaks of Los Nevados National Natural Park. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– […]

Original post in English here –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Por supuesto cuando te mudas a otro país esperas encontrar muchas diferencias culturales. Para comenzar el idioma y aun, la forma en que se saludan o despiden, así mismo como interactúan con la familia y la comida, puede tomarte un tiempo para acostumbrarse. Sin embargo […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– You may imagine that a Colombian kitchen is pretty much like most other kinds of kitchens, but you`d be wrong. Terribly, terrifyingly wrong. They may look the same, but just like everything else in life – whether it be trapdoors or Kinder Surprises – it`s what`s inside that counts. It`s the […]
We were walking around the main square of Salento, a beautiful, traditional, colonial town in Colombia’s Coffee Region, with houses so colourful you feel as though you’re in a sweet factory. Children in identical outfits were running around the plaza, while old men wearing cowboy hats and denim stood in front of the village church, talking to each […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– South America contains many archaeological treasures: lost cities hidden deep in the jungle, gigantic figures etched into the desert, a glittering array of gold and silver; but in the fertile green hills of southern Colombia is one ancient archaeological site which few people outside the country are aware of.

It´s time for the gloves to come off, the guantlet to be dropped, and the clichés to be swung in the breeze. No messing about. […]
Abstract –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Despite the widely-held assumption that Bogotá has terrible weather, our results, which come mainly from our experience of a Bogota bicycle tour, demonstrate that there is a possibility for the contraction of erythema due to exposure to high levels of ultra violet light (sunburn). Furthermore, we have unocovered […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Sometimes I like to think that, after nearly a year in this beautiful country, I´ve gone pretty native. I´m pretty handy on the old chicken bus, (even if I do say so myself), I´ve started doing all the things in this list, and I can even make a pretty […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– I have now been living in Colombia long enough that my family and friends are no longer simply curious about Colombia but genuinely interested. In fact, this interest culminated in a number of members of my family coming out to spend a couple of weeks here. I spent far […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Now, I know that it gets bandied around a fair bit here in Colombia, but I´m still a bit confused. Paisa is quite the loaded term. I´ve heard a wild story that claims it originated when the bold Antioqueños were pushing for their department´s independence. The new country (¨pais¨ in Spanish) […]
