Beaches in Cartagena aren't great, head to Baru for the beach.

Medellín es una ciudad fenomenal, tiene que ir al Peñol, a Santafé de Antioquia, a centros comerciales como El tesoro, y comerce una bandeja paisa en rancheritos..una delicia.

Para ir de fiesta hay mucho sitio a donde ir: El parque lleras, sabaneta, Mango´s, o cualquier tienda donde se pueda sentar a tomarse un aguardiente o una cerveza.

Waterboy, Medellin is one of the BEST cities in Colombia for bookstores. Five days is a short amount of time to see all the bookstores in Medellin but you can get to many of them. I have met the most interesting women in bookstores (lawyers, social workers, doctors, and other professional women as well as activists, thinkers, and dreamers capable of carrying on an intelligent and fascinating conversation. I mean you can get laid anywhere and those experiences start blurring together. But have a fascinating conversation with an intelligent Paisa woman and it could change your life forever, an experience you won't forget.

Así que SOLDADO AVISADO NO MUERE EN GUERRA!

Bookstore owners are fascinating people, too. Don't neglect hole-in-the-wall bookstores, second-hand bookstores, or specialty bookstores. They are all great!
