coffee Do(nt) Drink (Cofee) & Drive
What do you normally do when you are tired after a hard day and just wanna relax! There could be several ways out but I normally prefer the coffee route by which I mean a cup of refreshing coffee. But there is another coffee route which will certainly refresh you much more and this refers to the region in the country of Colombia and reflects the prosperity brought about by coffee production. So just drink and drive!

Exploring Cartagena

rosarios islands Exploring Cartagena
If there is one city that any Colombian could recommend to a prospective tourist, it would be Cartagena. It's full of culture, fusing the old and the new.

Not only that, the city is also nearby the Baru and the Rosarios islands, whose waters are laid with magnificent coral reefs that you will surely want to see.

These are all possible with Decameron Tours.

Colombians in Canada

canada Colombians in Canada
Living somewhere else does not mean you have to forget your roots. Definitely not.

It used to be that we hear expats from North America residing in South America, but there are also South Americans living in the North.

Just like the members of this Colombian group in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, which seeks to preserve the Colombian culture by putting up a cultural center. Nice way to love your mother nation. See the group's website here.

tourism Colombia - The Untold Story
Whenever you form an opinion about a country or a particular region, what are your reliable sources of information? Well I think most of you rely on news, hearsay and the word of mouth. But apart from the news which might be considered valid, the other sources are prone to same errors as yourself so better learn something from one who knows. Like if you want to know Colombia apart from news room image, read this book by Daniel Cox

Life is a journey say the wise and we should always try to travel as much as possible in this journey. Coming down on a more mundane level from the highs of philosophy let me tell you about one such short yet interesting journey in this long journey of life. The journey was between Cartagena and Medellin. Just read on how the writer enjoyed the bumpy rides and so on

By Website Introductions at 05/05/08 13:39
Colombia is so lucky to have an environment that is so diverse and teeming with wildlife. As human beings, it is everyone's obligation to protect and preserve them. You may still enjoy these environments even without having any pressure to make it imbalanced. And that is through eco-tourism activities.

Here in Parques Nacionales, many eco-tourism activities are suggested to make your vacation here in Colombia more enjoyable. See these suggestions by visiting its official website.

Nature Adventure

Are you in for a great adventure? Then Colombia is the place to be!

No, no, I am not talking about running from guerrillas and drugs and whatever things that the press has told you about Colombia.

I am talking about nature adventure--seeing animals in their natural habitat, riding with the waves, etc. So are you ready? Then put your backpacks on and go to Colombia!

Good thing that, despite the internal problems, Colombia is still able to watch and protect its environment from which it is indebted to so much.

Visit at least one of its 45 natural reserves and you will realize how diverse Colombia's environment is. Good thing it's in good hands.

For a list of some of the reserves, read the article linked here.
