I live in America and when I told everyone I was coming to Colombia they all freaked out, said I was going to be robbed, kidknapped, beaten up, bla bla....¨don´t eat the meat, it might be dog, or rat¨¨...
I didn´t believe everything everyone said because I had been to Peru the previous summer but I was a little worried about the violence here. Now, I do understand that there is a lot of violence in the jungles with the guerrilla and everything but...when I finally arrived to Bogota I thought....wow...people in America are pretty ignorant...there is a lot poverty here in some parts but....I can´t count the number of rich people I´ve seen in the city...and no offense...but most people I have run into are a lot more educated than most people back home....unfortunately it´s true.lol.well, I guess people should get to new a country before they talk bad about it...because COLOMBIA is completely different from what people say about it in the Usa.I´d say MANY parts are just as good as nyc
