Today is my birthday which is why I am doing flakes today instead of Thursday. I will be out in Medellin tonight celebrating with some expat friends. And before you get any ideas, no cocaine and prostitutes will be involved.
I do plan on exploring Medellin today, which I haven’t really done since I have arrived. The city itself is situated in the Aburra Valley with a population of around 4 million. You are surrounded by mountains on all sides which gives you plenty of great options to see the city from a variety of viewpoints. Medellin is also known for having the same temperatures pretty much all year round (ranging between 60-85 degrees) which is why it is called ‘The City of Eternal Spring.
