Helen Lovejoy, we’re way ahead of you, you old gossip, you. Although Hollywood would like you to think otherwise (check out our posts on Colombia in movies), we reckon Colombia’s alright for the kids. And the kids are alright. They’ll particularly be alright in what we reckon are the top three tourist (is touristic really […]

–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Although it was a little fuzzy around the edges, one aspect of the vision was clear. A canvas hammock swaying, back and forth, back and forth. Me in this hammock swaying, back and forth, back and forth. In my vision, a smile on my face – I’d finally found […]
So, I don’t know why, but I agreed to go on a trip to the coffee triangle with the adopted little brother I never wanted. Being Australian myself, I should’ve realised how annoying and uncouth my countrymen can be, but, I’m fairly notorious for making poor judgements (apart from going to Colombia, of course), so […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Just like the lovely Canucks in that ad (you know the one I mean), I’ve often had the sensation that Cartagena is a city built on its stories. And these stories are worthy of the world’s greatest magical realist. If you don’t believe me, please read Love in the […]
As most anyone will tell you, Tayrona is blessed with some of the most beautiful, jungle-fringed beaches around. This fact alone means that not visiting this extraordinary park means you’re really missing out. So, it’s settled that you’re going, right?

My dearest C, –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Even after spending 6 years at university learning how to read and write, I’m finding it almost impossible to muster the words that might just make it over this empty sheet and find the right home in your heart, and there express exactly how the love I […]
I don’t know why they let me, but I managed to get myself invited to the official launch of Colombia’s new national tourism campaign. Well, two official launches of Colombia’s new national tourism campaign. First, though, let’s have a look at what some of Colombia’s greatest minds have come up with. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) […]
So… –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– You probably know already that the Guativita Lagoon is said to be the birthplace of the El Dorado legend, and that it’s a beautiful, magical place to go have a sticky-beak at. There’s another Guatavita secret, though… Confusingly enough, Guatavita also refers to a – dare I use the […]
If you’re speaking in sporting circles, very rarely – probably once in the history of a particular sport – an athlete comes along that forces the rules of a game to be changed. In my two favourite sports; there was basketball’s Wilt Chamberlain, and cricket’s Donald Bradman. If you’re talking about another kind of sport, […]
