Medellin, Nov/Dec 2025

[Latbear4blk]

In a few hours I will be boarding (hopefully) my first flight in my way to Medellin. I will stay there until December 15th, when I will be returning to Argentina to my family and Ancient friends.

I will be staying in a complex in Ciudad del Rio, when I booked I had not researched the hood, I just liked it because it was one block away from the MOM and it was an area I enjoyed in a previous visit. Recently, I learned that is a just developed new fancy neighborhood with lots of new upscale residencies, bars, coffee shops and restaurants. The area was cute when I walked through it a few years ago, but it was yet not as developed as I learned it is now.

It is very close to El Poblado, some reports frame ir as "the gate" to Provenza and El Poblado. In my previous visit I stayed in less gentrified areas in Laureles, so I am very curious although I am certain I will miss the more authentic local experience provided by Laureles up to a few years ago.

If you have any suggestions about events or places to visit these next 40 days, please feel free to share in this thread. Just remember that I am not in a frenzy short trip trying to fuck every Colombian hottie available, but instead I am slow traveling on a very low budget, as my condo in DC is still in the market.

As usual, I will do my best to report my (mis)adventures.

Buen viaje parcero.  Will ask around what is currently happening. The famous alumbrados  which are very nearby to your location should  light up the week of Noche de  la velitas, the theme this year is natural wonders of Colombia, no idea if that includes neas or guapitos. Que la pases súper!
