Colombia: Not the Greatest Tourism Slogan Ever

Travel

Greeting you at the Cartagena airport:

Colombia,
the only risk is wanting to stay.

Um... I'm not sure that means exactly what they intended it to mean.

Still, fascinating place so far.

True story: I asked a guy on a plane what he did for a living here. He said he was in agriculture, but he didn't get into specifics.

A little later he said it was really more of an import/export business.

That's when I found stuff to ask besides what he did for a living.

I'm not completely convinced coming to Colombia by myself was the shrewdest move I've ever made. But damn, beautiful country, friendly people. Cartagena is like a living museum. Put it on your life list.
