Dear Colombia, I’m terribly sorry...
But I simply cannot recommend you.
...Not because you’re lacking in any way, of course. Absolutely not.
The real problem? People will never want to leave! ☀️
Imagine the heartbreak! They’ll experience your perfect weather, your friendly faces, and those ridiculously delicious fruits, only to return to... shudders London rain.
They’d be scrambling for the nearest plane back to your paradise, faster than you can say “salsa dancing!”
And that’s not all! Your kindness might make their hearts explode from sheer warmth. Their taste buds will be forever ruined by the sheer juicy perfection of your fruit.
Colombia, you’re just too good! Having both the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea in one place is simply overwhelming for the average tourist.
But fear not! While I can’t recommend you in good conscience (wink wink), I can’t keep this secret paradise all to myself either.
You’re simply too fantastic, too wonderful, to be selfish about.
So, the world will just have to deal with it. I’ll make sure they get the best possible Colombian experience, complete with the most remarkable guides – because, let’s face it, who wouldn’t want to help people discover your magic? ✨
✨Fairness—like two sides of the same coin, it binds us together.
Last week, a revelation from the travel industry got me thinking 🛫🚂🚤: What really happens behind the scenes of our adventurous escapes?
Picture this: You’re buzzing with excitement for your next journey. You’ve booked a tour, eager to dive into local culture and connect with new faces, guided by a local expert 💛.
But, here’s a shocker 👇:
😕 Did you know that your local guide might only receive 2-4% of what you paid, sometimes even less? Yes, the bulk of your payment often ends up with the tour company!
🫠 And what if I told you that these guides are frequently restricted to company scripts, unable to craft their own authentic experiences?
😓 Unfortunately, this isn’t rare. It’s a widespread truth in many places and it’s known as LOCAL WASHING—a downright unfair practice.
