MEDELLÍN
Why Medellín?
Dubbed the most dangerous city in the world no longer than 25 years ago to being one of the most exciting, hippest cities in the world, there is a lot to say about Medellín. Known as ‘The City of Eternal Spring’ there’s never not a good time to visit the Antioquia capital. You can spend months getting to know this city but it’ll only take you days to fall in love with it’s character. Take your time learning of it’s gruesome history and the new, creative vibe of Comuna 13. Don’t miss out on the food, Bandeja Paixa is the main dish, which you must try! It’s definitely worth visiting the local towns: Santa Elena and Guatapé are stand outs.
Highlights
"We always went out for drinks after work and dancing too. I felt part of a family kind of team. A lot of students were travellers passing through and so the atmosphere was very relaxed. I would definitely do it again!"

“Hi everybody, I'm Dan and I spent the best part of my year abroad studying at ‘La Universitat de Valencia’ before heading to Santa Marta on the Colombian northern coast to teach at a small charity called ‘Colombia Sin Fronteras’. It was an amazing year and there’s nothing I enjoy more than talking about it so please get in touch! More than happy to help."

"Hi I’m Kit, I am from near Brighton and study Russian and Spanish at Manchester university. In Colombia, I worked at a language immersion school, and helped with various things including social media, running the hostel side of the things. In Russia I was studying in Saint Petersburg state university and had to leave after 6 weeks during covid but learnt a lot about the city in the short time. "
