Hello All - I have not been in Colombia for two years or so and would like to visit again soon. This time thinking about Pereira. I tend to go to Bogota and Cali where I know some people.
How is Pereira? Is it somewhat like Cali? I heard things in Cali are a bit out of hand when it comes to the deliquency however Latino-looking-Colombian and Spanish speaker, I get around just fine in any LaTin American country visited in the past. I'd like to visit Pereira since I've never been there but curious if it's like Cali,etc, if it's good for single guys, etc. if you know the situation on both Cali & Pereira, it'll be certainly appreciated.

billyb says on Apr 28, 2009, 15:01: I wouldn't say Pereira is much like Cali, different cultures altogether, Cali is Cali and Pereira is Paisa. It is cooler in Pereira and it doesn't have that tropicla vibe you get in La Pachanguera.

Que basura de Colombianos que hay aca en EEUU, en vez de atacar a los que constantemente despotrican contra Colombia, se van lanza en ristre contra los que las defendemos fielmente.

billyb says on Apr 29, 2009, 22:10: Esa era una pregunta valida para saber de que experiencia usted estaba comentando sobre el clima en Pereira, no era hostil, pero usted, en su inseguridad y falta de dignidad, siempre toma todo mal. Y si nos estamos poniendo como una niña, pues antes que te pongas a llorar, sepa que usted fue el empeso con los insultos, como siempre. Usted es un embarazo al resto de los Colombianos aqui.

billyb says on Apr 29, 2009, 22:23: Desi no estaba siendo mal intencionada, solo estaba comentando sobre algo que todo el mundo que ha pasado tiempo en pereira comenta, Y eso es que siempre llueve, no quiere decir que siempre esta lloviendo, sino que casi (nadie estaba tratando de ser literal) cada dia llueve. Deje de ser tan marica y ataque los verdaderos insultos contra Colombia, en vez de buscar huevonadas.

Simon says on Apr 29, 2009, 22:28: No se si ud. sabe pero he notado que ella siempre le ha tenido una cierta bronca a Pereira, por eso es que reaccione de esa manera, ya que ella parece incapaz de decir algo positivo de Pereira. Y no me voy a poner a llorar (como lo hizo ud. porque lo trate de "huevon") porque ud. me dijo que "no sea tan marica".... porque asi hablamos los Colombianos.
