Cartago Travel Blog | Travelogue | Travel Journal

This is a sumary of all the trips I've done to Colombia since 2004. I don't have many pictures of the cities. Mostly I take pictures with my friends and family. Next time I need to do a better job at taking pictures of my hometown not only of the people that make it special. There is more to Colombia than the negative media it gets. Hopefully this Journal will help those who want to visit. Watch the videos that I have at the end of this blog and you will want to go to Colombia!!

Outside of the City

March 14, 2007
Traveling north of cali the region starts changing from valley to coffee area as we get close to the mountains. My parents are from Cartago. This is a small town 3 hrs away from Cali. It is hot but as you drive towards the "coffee region" the weather turns to a nice 70-60 F. This where the people that live in Cartago have country houses.
