What's Your Stereotype About Colombia?

My impression of Colombia was just like yours, but now that I am taking Spanish, I've realized that it is an amazingly beautiful country.

However, it's still a place were a lot of drugs are smuggled and most people don't have the wealth that we do.

When you go touring in Colombia or any other place, you don't see the real condition of the country, just the tourist places which are usually really beautiful. While the people are living in poverty, you get the impression that it is a great place

The opinion I first had was invoked by the media and yes, I see it as fields of marajauna, cocoa with armies of gunmen with automatics surrounding them. Dirty, poverty stricken cities and such. I have come to realize the media only gives a closed view on what they want us to see and not reality.

Warm weather , Beautiful women and Good coffee.

AMAZING country. Trafficking is big. What country doesnt have a defect. Poor and rich people. And beautiful people

We Colombians love party a lot, we have many, many festivals, beauty contests and carnivals.

Not every colombian people is poor or do drugs what kind of monster you think we are
don't you see good   people, the food. Don't be stupid. You have to learn firts

I don't have at all a stererotype about Colombia. People have to open their eyes, and know that Colombia isn't all about Drug-Cartels, and murders. Colombia is a beautiful country, with rich culture. Also, Colombian people are lovely people with kind hearts.

Colombia is amazing. I am an Aussie living in Cali, Colombia now.
