Medellin, Comuna 13 and Jardin
14/3/23 Today we had a hostel breakfast before heading out to see Comuna 13, a place famous for being one of the most dangerous places in the world only a few years ago.

Guatapé has a big rock ⛰️
11/3/23 We had wanted to spend our Saturday in Medellin so we could try a lively night out in the favoured Colombian city, but sadly all the fun hostels were booked so we decided to change our plan and head straight to Guatape, a ‘nearby’ town that most people did as a day trip fromContinue reading “Guatapé has a big rock ⛰️”
