Honestly Cali
I am a twenty-something expat living in Cali for the second time starting a career in the environmental sector. I started this blog in order to help others with similar intentions as there is a distinct lack of blogs about Cali.

- The economics of the class war 8 years ago The class war in Colombia has many facets, but the more noticeable, every-day side is monetary. The middle-lower classes who are working hard to improve their conditions are constantly faced with infinite barriers to even the smallest attempt and I truly believe this should be a priority...
- Pride: A blessing or a curse? 8 years ago I felt I needed to address this issue as it is a real problem I have faced in Colombia, and something that I have noticed is one of the important but less tangible challenges to the future of the country. I hope to explain this issue respectfully and feel, like the title of my blog, it is better...
- Nature in Cali 8 years ago Although living in the middle of a big, busy city which is dirty, loud and chaotic, there are unexpected moments where nature pops up and grows in between the vast concrete structures to remind us that Colombia is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world. Here is a snapshot of what you...
- Everything & cheese 8 years ago Colombians LOVE cheese. 'So do Europeans!' I hear you say. No, no, you don't understand. Their love for cheese is different to our love for cheese.

I really liked this blog and I found it very useful for my upcoming trip to Colombia. I liked the fact that it tells you everything you need to know about Cali and the general Colombian culture. What's more, I learnt a lot about the real political and social issues that some foreigners can't see while they visit developing countries. I think now I will be more prepared to deal with situations that may arise during my stay there. Keep posting!
