RE: Escobar Uncovered: 5 Days w/ Pablo Escobar’s Top Assassin - Pre-Departure & Day 1
Interesting...when it comes to Central/Latin America my experience is limited (Nicaragua, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico) compared to yours, but Colombia was by far my favorite of them all! But I respect your opinion & to each his own :)
I really love the rating scale you've utilized in your posts, make things clean & simple! And it's interesting how you've been living out of a backpack for so long...I just started :) Looking forward to hearing more from you since we seem to be living similar lifestyles - followed! Keep up the great work and thanks for reaching out
Thank you so much! I too like my scale! lol Naturally I'm a very analytical person. I'm looking forward to your posts as well.
To my experience each place can be different for each person, depending on where exactly you stay, what exactly you do, your budget and attitude towards spending.
I'm in Mexico right now, Playa del Carmen, it's like a very nice American colony on the beach at third world prices if you know where to stay and eat. If one was to stay in Mexico City for a week; it would be a totally different experience.
So one thing to take note when viewing my reports is that I write from a "budget traveler" perspective. If I need to spend first world prices while in a third world country to be comfortable...automatically the country won't rate so well. No need to take my opinions as the law, for each his own!
I'm very happy to connect with you as well on here. Enjoy your travels. I'll be in touch! -Dan
