Slow Travel Around the World | One Year on the Road 🌎

🏙️ Medellín: Loud but Lovely El Poblado: As expected—noisy with bars/clubs (even "quiet" hotels aren’t). Laureles: Some peaceful pockets, but mostly Airbnbs (few chain hotels). 🎭 Tour Takeaways 1️⃣ Comuna 13 (Zippy Tour): British-accented guide (never left Colombia—impressive English!). Commercialized but worth it for safety + untold stories. 2️⃣ Guatape Day Trip (Zippy): Overcrowded bus, rushed meals (breakfast at 9AM, lunch at 4PM 😵). Skip: Boat ride to Pablo’s old villa (meh). DIY tip: Go solo—it doesn’t need a full day! 3️⃣ Historic Downtown (Real City Tour): Essential for chaotic areas—context is everything. 🌿 From Salento to Medellín Culture shock: Peaceful coffee farms → urban energy (still keep guard up!). #OneYearTraveling #Colombia #MedellinDiaries
