MY TRAVEL EXPERIENCE	Tayrona Santa Marta	Then I hopped on a bus to Santa Marta, and the vibe completely changed. Suddenly I was surrounded by mountains meeting the sea, and my hostel was just a short walk from the beach. I did a day trip to Tayrona National Park and it was, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen in my life. If you ever get the chance to visit both cities in one trip — do it. You won't regret it!

TRAVEL TIPS	COP Arepas Patacones Choclo	Don't bring food — the park has strict rules about outside food to protect the ecosystem the trails mix jungle hiking with beach walking, so they get wet and slippery. Enter early — the park opens at 8:00 AM and gets crowded fast, especially on weekends
