    This video made me so happy. I spent a lot of time there in 2017-18. It’s great to see how clean and safe it is now. There are way more entertainers it seems and probably a better experience for tourists. They have crazy high unemployment in Colombia so all the vendors are trying to support their families. Show them some love whenever you can and understand their situation when they approach you!

    As a native from Cartagena I was so happy to watch this video. One of the best if not the best I've seen from my hometown. Kudos about the 'real' history of the city you shared and not the 'sugar coated' version we were taught in school regarding what Spaniards did to our indigenous people. Congratulations!!

    You did it again! Now we need to include Cartagena in our travels. We’ll have to switch our plan to full time travel. You’ve shown us sooo many amazing places in your lovely way. You must spend quite a bit of time researching everything. Thank you both so much.

Example Colombia is the Country of the TRUE CUMBIA and VALLENATO,MAPALE,PORROS, MERECUMBE, BULLERENGE, ORIGINAL PURE, NATIVE, RAIZAL, Argentina Tango, Brazil Samba, Cuba Son Cubano, México Rancheras mexicanas, Corridos Norteños, Each country has its own Heritage and Different Cultural Identity!!!.. it is very Clear 👍

    I’m watching one of your videos about Cartagena. I love how balanced your videos are showing different points of view, a little history, places to see, things to buy and how much they should cost. I like how you mention that the people that live there and approach you are selling a service or a product. They live off these sales and you can politely say no, not treat them like they are a nuisance. Great videos. I’ll check some other ones.

    I am SO excited that you are in Colombia. My husband and I adopted two children from there over 40 years ago. We returned recently and went to carnaval in Barranquilla and also returned to Cartagena. Tayrona National Park up the coast also really worth a visit. We explored many areas but one was outside Bucaramanga where our son was born and is called Chicamocha Canyon. It is AWESOME!!! It’s really worth seeing. Also a place NOT to miss which is close by is Barichara. It is an absolutely charming town; you will love it! We also visited Palenque de San Basilio where you are going next week. Be prepared!!! You will need a guide; it is quite an experience and has so much history. I hope you travel all over Colombia . I am OVER THE MOON that you are there!!! Thanks for all your fabulous videos. You are both THE BEST!!!

    I've had a couple friends go to Cartagena and they can't fish enough about it. The people seem amazingly nice. Quite a lot of history to this city that I'd love to explore. I love that you guys go into the good and bad of the local history. We should never hide our failures and evils. We should learn from it. The old architecture is amazing particularly the churches. So many refreshing juices. Where do you get your stock footage from? Like the flowing chocolate and caramel shot. Colombian rappers! I love it 😆. That is probably the most decorated coffee shop I've ever seen! Yaya is a character 😂. Massive portions for that price. The color of the city is fantastic. Adam is still the pun king 👑. A great video guys.

    Lovely video. Brought back great memories. I lived in Colombia for a year and was fortunate to go to some great places. Not sure where you’re off to but if you get the chance, go to Parque Cafe, near Pereira, Medellin, Bogotá, Santa Marta and Tayrona national park. People are wonderful. Colombia has some of the best jugo naturals but some places mix in water. Be careful and make sure bottled water is used. I know this from personal experience 🤢Enjoy and stay safe ❤🥰🙏
