Colombia

Welcome to Colombia!
Bienvenidos a Colombia!

We are traveling to our first country in South America. As we are traveling from north to south, it is obviously Colombia. There is a lot to see in Colombia. It is considered the country with the second greatest biodiversity, just behind Brazil, in a much smaller area. It comes as no surprise that Colombia has many national parks that protect its impressive nature. Colombia is also known for its musicality and its artists. And finally, there is a unique game that is considered a national sport: The Tejo. Perhaps we can unravel the myth surrounding the Tejo on our trip.
Come along, get on board and enjoy the country in all its glory with our travel blogs from Colombia. Let’s discover Colombia together!

We are Paddy and Mimi, a travel-hungry couple from tiny Switzerland in the middle of Europe. We call ourselves slow travelers, because we like to spend enough time in one place or country. Therefore we don’t only visit the typical sights but also get to know the culture of the respective country.
