And last week a bomb went off in Bogota. Three killed in an upscale shopping center.

I would love to go to Colombia. My cousin just spent a month there. Loved it. Rented a car and drove everywhere.

I am a coward.

There were 7 drive by shootings in the last 4 days where I live in flyover USA. I'd be much safer in Colombia.

Went to Guate this year. Spectacular people and scenery.
Also went to Honduras back in Dec. 2015 (my first solo trip) and it was eye opening.
I highly suggest everyone visit all of the above. Great, hard working, honest people down there.

I would also love to go to Honduras. My friend who lives in Tegucigalpa told me she would not recommend it. Her brother who was a taxi driver recently got shot. However Roatan apparently is different.

I also would love to go to San Salvador. Two people from San Salvador advised me not to go.

I find it all very confusing.
