I was on a street corner not a few blocks from the down town center and all the main hostels. Three young guys came up to me and said "money, money!" they had knives in thier hands and werent messing around! I was with my younger brother at the time. they grabed our shirts and put the knives to our necks. I shoved them away and we took off. They started to chase us but we lost them after a few blocks. } It was a well lit area with plenty of people around, they didnt care. Both me and my brother ...

Forgive me for such a 'duh' question. But what really is the agenda of the Farc? Is really all about the crack? or do they have a political agenda, are they trying to accomplish anything, put some one in office ect... I'm just very curios and intrigued on how they could last so long being so blatantly out of line with a normal society! Thanks ice ...
Does any one think it would be possible to find a place to put up a tent some where in the city. or at least just out side it. maybe a yard or ranch or park ect.... thanx pura vida ice

Any suggestion on things to see and do that just can't be missed? Any way to take a small plane into the amazon? Is there any other way to cheaply get between cities like Bog, Cali and Med besides 'dangerous' buses and pricey flights? Trains? Thanx ice ...
Hello everyone, my first post here. My five brothers and sisters and I will be traveling to Bogotá around June 10th and are looking for a place to stay for about two weeks. A flat or apartment would be awesome. As cheap AS possible! We can sleep on floor and can cram well. Any one know what a cheap but decently clean hotel would run for all of us. In central america we paid about $40 usd a night for all 6 people and had tv, hot water, air/heat ect.... Does that seam realistic in Colombia?? ...
