I also been up and down colombia. Never saw trains, but the hitchin is alright. Best to ask stopped cars, cause it's actually rare that they'll stop for you. Gotta look clean too. Awesome gente, though, man. Nice call wizehop

yeah colombia is rad. thumbs-up on the highway you'll never get a lift, just talk to people at gas stations or ask the soldiers (who wil proly smoke you out) at the checkpoints to hellp you catch a ride. people are super cool and will always wanna show you a good time, feed you, hear you say you love colombia. if you're in bogota (and sort of have a death wish) ask some locos where "LA ELE" is and go there. the most brutal, fucked up thing you've ever seen. and the fiercest income disparity you've ever seen. millionaires and mendigos. y las mujeres... ni se diga hombe son una maravilla

but theres every kind of climate imaginable, from desert to snow capped peaks, jungle, pacific and caribean coasts, awesome food, licorice flavored booze. colochos make cali stoners seem like lightweight posers, these dudes roll fatties all day long. plus, spirit air has 80 dollar flights down there. arranque y vayase...
