@SHL yes for someone person he was good person because he helped people from this "Region" of Antioquia but other person is the other oposite some years I went from there and in this time I can see the luxuries that I has in his "state" spanish name is La hacienda Napoles that is the place that he live but now this place don't stay It was demolish, there are books from he and documentaries. But I think  that was bad even thought he helped some people. From this reason some countries It does not have good concept of the country. I think that Colombia is not only "drug trafficking" is more than this.  

I've heard that at Christmastime, the Christmas lights in Medellin are spectacular.

@David ¿Qué sitios de Colombia te gustan visitar? a mi por ejemplo me gusto mucho el eje cafetero y el Amazonas la calidad de las personas es increíble y son sitios perfectos para desconectarse.  

South American people are indeed nice folks SHL. Maybe you found your way into the Spanish board for a reason... It´s a cool language to study! :)
