Members, remember this is an Anglophone forum,

so if you post words in Spanish, generally speakiing,

they should be a relatively small part of the post ..

or be translated along the way.

Exceptions to the above might be short posts

where the meaning is evident because the words are

commonly heard in English-speaking countries

or are so close to their English meaning that

it's obvious what is being said.

Another exception might be a one word exclamatory

such as !Bailemos¡   Translation... Let's dance!

Tips for Medellín...

(1) Don't invite strangers up to your room.

(2) Don't get separated from your drink at

nightlife venues.

(3) If visiting Poblado, remember that you're

at mile-high altitude in a sector that contains

steep inclines in places.

(4)  If your Spanish chops are up to it,

make a side trip to Bucaramanga, Santander.

It's my favorite city in Colombia -- I spent

six months there this year.
