–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Today’s post is written by Sara Romes * from See Colombia Travel’s sales department: I have a confession to make…I am not a city girl. I’ve never lived in a city with a population above 3 million people. So when I moved to Bogota, with nearly three times that […]

Some of the independent street gyms aren’t much better: rusty equipment and men who make Schwarzenegger look like…well…me. All in all, the gym can be […]
Colombia has more than its fair share of stunning coastline – about 1,800km of Caribbean and 1,500km of Pacific to be unnecessarily precise. However, possibly the most beautiful corner of Colombia’s coastline is, in fact, right in the corner! Capurganá is a small town, accessible only by infrequent flights and daily speedboats, nestled away right […]
