Description:

Leticia, the capital of the Colombian state of Amazonas, is a small sleepy city of about 35,000 that lies on the south-east border of Colombia, about 3,000 kilometres upstream along the Amazon river. The city is located at the junction of the Colombian, Brazilian and Peruvian borders.

The border between Colombia and Brazil is on land, and the Brazilian town of Tabatinga is immediately adjacent to Leticia. The border between Colombia and Peru is along the river, and the Peruvian village of Santa Rosa is a 5 minute boat-ride across from Leticia.

Travel between these three communities is very casual you don't need stamps to go for the day, and there is a tangible sense of community in the region despite the borders.
