The HISTORY of Medellín, Colombia - One of the World's Most INSPIRING and INNOVATIVE Cities

I have been living on and off in Medellín, Colombia for the past 3 years. Medellín is an amazing city sometimes more known for its past and not its very promising present and future.
I set out to research the History of Medellín, Colombia and I discovered how the city was founded, what events led to its growth and what factors currently make it one of the best cities to live in Latin America.
Like any city in the world there are still challenges, but generally speaking Medellín is an amazing city. The people are very kind, the weather is amazing year around and I have loved living there!
Disclaimer: I am not a detective in real life. I just wanted to create a character for the video. The video is for my sister, Juli.
Te quiero mucho Medellín! Gracias por recibirme y por hacerme parte de tu historia.
I hope you enjoy video and I really appreciate you watching! Take care!

    Muchas gracias por este maravilloso video. Me ayuda mucho para mostrarlo a mis estudiantes, que vean lo bueno y lo triste sin juzgar, lo doloroso que vivio nuestra ciudad y nuestro pais por esas porquerias de drug dealers. Aqui en estos paises solo nos juzgan como delincuentes o drogadictos por el mal nombre de ese hombre que destruyo a Medellin y a Colombia. Cuidado con esa persona que le esta pidiendo informacion sobre una "boutique" en el poblado. Es muy triste eso, las ninias jovenes quieren dinero facil y alla van a venderse a todos esos turistas que van con dinero y se hospedan cerca de esos lugares del poblado solo para "comprar"' a esas ninias, que lastima. Usted no haga nada, no de informacion. Muchas suerte con sus videos. Un abrazo desde este frio Canada. 🤗🤗👏👏💗💗
