Today’s post is written by Sara Romes, from See Colombia’s Sales Department. Thanks Sara and Happy Semana Santa to all! –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– You’re traveling to where?

Today is a monumental day. Is it the constant sheets of rain that cascade down my window in Bogotá? No, that’s no it. Is it that today I’m going to Estereo Picnic?

Bogotá y Medellín eran una […]

This makes it the 5th City of Music in the world, after Seville, Bologna, Glasgow, and Ghent. It was recognised, according to ColombiaReports.com, […]
When I first came to Bogotá, I had the pleasure of being introduced to Germain García Durán, who was to take me and some friends on a tour of the outskirts of Bogotá, skirting villages such as Chia and navigating the winding roads in the surrounding mountains. The views were spectacular. The forests that climbed up […]
Aside from the slang phrases in Colombia, there are some rather strange things about Colombian Spanish that can make it confusing for foreigners – even those that have Spanish as their first language. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Colombian Spanish has always been a very formal way of speaking. Friends refer to each other as ‘usted’, and […]
