Tell me everything about visiting colombia as a white american/western.
I went to Colombia on a whim back in 2015.
Went on SkyScanner, saw a cheap fare from Bogota, and booked it on short notice.
Absolutely loved the place. I spent a month there. Didn't see much beyond Bogota, Medellin, Cartagena, and Santa Marta/Minca, but I'd love to go back again.
Very friendly and fun locals, nice nature, and incredibly affordable.
I'm not going to write more than that unless you ask more specific questions. You shouldn't expect /trv/ to be your personal LonelyPlanet or some shit.

very similair experience with me except i went in 2016 and instead of Santa Marta/Minca, i did Solento.
BUMPO
a bit of Spanish is helpful, Minca is great Salento is great.. Palomino is a good spot.(pic related).
San Cipriano looks really cool, but I never made it there..
Cartagena is very impressive, but more expensive

Stop using the word 'western' like some backwards gook. Unless you wear a cowboy hat every day you aren't western.

How was the food?
Anything stand out to you as particularly good?
