Colombian tradition will live on for about 3 or 4 more generations...and then the chinese will have taken over, along with Tibetan monks . Probably, it's a distraction, with Tibet.. and before you can say : MARACUYA! jaj.. They will have taken over and FOREVERMORE IN BOGOTA ... it will become known as:

" ........................ THE MONKS OF MONSERRATE.............................. "

The Buddha will reside at the front of the church, atop the mountain and El Restaurante San Ysidro will be serving... 'Sopa de Flied Lice'.. jajaj

Mompi, this is the deal.
These guys (gringo, euros etc) go to Colombia and hang out in zona Rosa, Parque Lleras and Chipicrapi mall with their gringo crazed colombianitas. They take their women to bars, clubs with heavy gringo influence where Paul MacCarthy and Cher (do you believe) is heard in the background, thus the reason why they have never heard the above type of music (MILLO) yet they claim to have visited Colombia.
Outside Barranquilla, Colombia has become a poor, THIRD WORLD imitation of International Drive, Orlando Florida.
Barranquilleros have gratefully accepted the task as sole keepers of Colombian traditions and PRIDE. We are also the ones staying home while other continue to flee the country at alarming rate.
I just called Avianca to book my flight to Barranquilla from NYC. It turns out those stupid modefoques sonamanbiches are NO longer doing direct flight to curramba due to few Barranquilleros living in USA, I have to land in fokin Bogotá.
Don’t they realize that Barranquilla FOUNDED this FOKIN airline????
Don’t they realize that while all those Indians in the fokin interior were still walking around in fokin ponchos with their red fokin cheeks riding on top of fokin lamas and chit, we in Barranquilla were the first driving fokin cars.
Don't they realize that while in the fokin interior they were still shouting at each other from fokin mountain peeks as the only means of fokin communication, Barranquilla already had fokin telephones and fokin radio stations/

I don't really see B/quilla as Colombia at all. It's more like Caribbean. Colombia is Bogotá, Medellin, Cali, Pasto, Popayan, Bucaramanga.

Cartagena, perhaps, because of the historical ties and Santa Marta because of the Sierra and Parque Tayrona nearby, but B/quilla? No, not really.

Sure that sounds very intelectual, "I don't really see B/quilla as Colombia at all"
Colombia is Caribbean as well and thanks to the cultural contributions from Barranquilla, Cartagena and Santa Marta Colombia enjoys a little bit of Positive Image.

Desi, funny you should say that “Barranquilla is more Caribbean than Colombian��?
My daughter was just saying almost the same. After meeting some family members visiting or living here (nyc)and my buddy Papito (from Cartagena) she sees no difference between them and Dominicans, Puerto Ricans or Cubans,
But, when she meets Colombians from Bogota, Medellin Cali, Pasto, etc. she sees them as nanos, no different from Ecuadorian, Peruanos , Bolivians and Mexicans
I explained that is due to their heavy Andean ijun roots.

This one is from Quisqueya
And thanks for the compliment.

Isn't this what makes Colombia so diverse, so special?
I see them as Colombians, I see them embrace their Colombian culture...bueno there are differences...true could be said about any country and region...
I see every corner of Colmbia as Colombian....

Viejo Elmo, no estoy 100% de acuerdo pues yo estube en costa diciembre y enero y no detecte esa vaina, es mas me parecio todo lo contrario! Ellos son muy orgullosos de su propia musica por eso hemos llegado muy lejos. Si es como tu dices que les encantan mas el merengue que la cumbia o el vallenato entonces yo NO fuera visitado a la costa colombiana.
Esta es la razon que yo ya no quiero ir a Medellin porque esos ellos son muy "charros" con su musica mejicana.
Si estoy de acuerdo que el merengue es muy bailable y tiene tambien un buen ritmo pero eso no quiere decir que vamos a promover mas la musica del extranjero que la nuestra.

Tranquilo que el equipo gana!

MaFe, I was just teasing Elmo and Mompis. We've had this exchange before:)

Elmo, to an outsider, yes, there's a little truth in it. Colombia is like two different countries; Caribbean with it's own music, language, culture (or the lack of it ;) and the Colombia Andina with it's heavy Indian roots.

Actually, I think Cali represents the Real Colombia where both of these ethnic influences merge.
