En el recorrido por el suroriente Antioqueno además de ver los alumbrados navideños de Medellín con el tema “Mi Navidad” también tuvimos la oportunidad de hacer turismo de aventura en el municipio de Támesis – la tierra de siempre volver, donde después de tener un acercamiento a la comunidad, las muestras culturales, la feria de ganado […]
Tag: Colombian Sports and Outdoor Activities
There are very few sports in the world where drinking is positively encouraged as you play. Darts is one; it’s hard to imagine playing darts without a pint sat on a table nearby, waiting for you. Colombia, too, has its very own sport that is synonymous with getting intoxicated. In fact, often, it’s a sport that’s […]
In a country rife with opportunities for adventure it’s quite a thing to be crowned the ‘Adventure Capital of Colombia’. But then San Gil is quite a place. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Offering opportunities for an abundance of adventure in Colombia, including rafting, biking, sailing, abseiling, climbing, caving, swimming, rappelling, paintballing, kayaking, hydrospeeding, paragliding and (incredibly) more, San Gil […]
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) <– Football? Cricket? Angry Birds? Well I´ve heard that they´re OK, but they are missing a couple of things. For one thing, there aren´t enough real explosions in any of them. Any Michael Bay could tell you that to make any good thing into a great thing, all you need to […]
So, Nairo Quintana gave Colombia a (slightly tardy, mind you) birthday present by becoming King of the Mountains, the best rider under 25, and second over-all in the ridiculously gruelling Tour de France (being beaten out by a Brit, my associate Paul Fowler hastens to point out) – it´s got to be the craziest, most […]
Something we don’t mind repeating about this great country we happen to call home is how music seems to pulse through Colombia’s veins. The same could also be said about their greatest footballers. Not only has Colombia produced some of the greatest footballers of all time, but they also happen to be those with the […]
In honour of today’s match against Argentina (which Colombia are definitely going to win), enjoy this pick of Colombian songs that are guaranteed to have you in the mood for some serious Colombian pride. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– COME ON COLOMBIA!
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– And then, football went literally cray-cray over Colombia. Not only does it look like the Cafeteros will barge their way into the World Cup (guess what our tip for the team to watch there is? HINT: it’s not Australia), but – and without any exaggeration – every single European […]
On December 3rd last year I checked my emails. Now this may not seem like a particularly momentous event, but those who know me well will be aware of the fact that I hate checking my emails: the only people who use email to contact me would probably only be doing so with bad news. […]
