Me and my girlfriend have been living here for over a month walking everywhere we go, hangout out with locals daily, and going out intoxicated for nightlife most weekends. We have not had a problem yet! People have primarily been kind, I don’t think we’ve experienced homophobia(?), and we have no had anything stolen. We are in love with it here and I hope we and other travelers continue having positive and safe experiences in laureles.

Located in the northwest of South America, Colombia is a mesmerizing blend of vibrant culture, architectural grandeur, immense biodiversity, and striking landscapes. Known for its vast coffee plantations that produce some of the finest brews in the world, it also presents a rich cultural tapestry of music and dance, particularly Salsa. Colombian emerald mines, believed to produce the highest quality gems in the world, add a sparkling allure to its reputation. Its history echoes through colonial structures, intriguing archaeological sites as the Lost City of Teyuna, and pre-Hispanic cultures evident in the Gold Museum. For nature lovers, the Amazon rainforest, pristine beaches of Cartagena, snow-capped Andean peaks, and the unique flora and fauna promise an unforgettable encounter with Mother Nature.
