Colombia Destinations

Barranquilla, Colombia

How is to draw and travel in Barranquilla?

Best places to visit & sketch in Colombia

After 4 months exploring we discovered that Colombia is actually worth to put in any destination bucket list. This is our list of our best 14 places!

Bogota, Colombia

We decided to take a rest from the jet lag we had and stay for a few nights in Bogotá before we start the real thing in North Colombia.

Cartagena – Colombia

Many people said that Cartagena is a beautiful city in Bolivar, Colombia. And it is indeed. Personally, is one of the most beautiful cities I've ever been.

Cartagena, Colombia

It was six in the morning in Cartagena when I woke up. I looked out the window and saw the clear sky. I dressed and packed the "office" bag with me.

Cienaga – Colombia

Ciénaga was the place we found our second family in Colombia, after Bogotá, and all happened accidentally!

Entrerrios, Colombia

Entrerrios surprised us. We didn't expect that this small town would be unforgettable.

On our way to Yarumal, Colombia

Have you ever had a day full of shits? Forgetting important things, acted clumsy or everything you did it just seems wrong? Or the opposite? Everything seems beautiful!

Palenque – Colombia

The first impression of the village was rural areas and has strong resonances of African culture.

Puerto Colombia

Puerto Colombia it self is a small village in the shape of a square. It does not have much more than a cute little church and the beach. If it wasn’t a friend suggesting us to stayed at Liliana's house, we thought Puerto Colombia wouldn't be on our route.

Santa Marta – Bahia Concha, Colombia

Even though Santa Marta is known as a popular destination on the Carribean coast, there are more interesting places to explore outside.

Tuchin, Colombia

After few weeks we enjoyed the Colombian coast, it's time to heading the mountains. On the way, we stopped in a small town 7 km away from Tuchin which is where the typical hat of Colombia has been made.

Visit Medellin, what to see and sketch

Medellin was in fact known as a dangerous city. Even now, there are still some places that are better to avoid. However, we feel safe during our stay and Luís had fun to sketch Medellin.
