INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE in the Colombian Andes - RESERVA GUADALAJARA - COCORA VALLEY - Salento Quindio

[@hernanruiz6683]

Hi guys, what an awesome experience and such a beautiful scenery, I miss my beautiful country Colombia 🇨🇴 already, thanks so much for the video, I'm from Medellin, I moved to USA when I was 20 years old, now I'm 63 years old and Colombia it's been always in my heart, I visited 10 years ago and can't wait to go back, greetings from USA 🇺🇸 🙏🇨🇴♥️✌️

[@SammyandTommy]

Hello 👋 Hernan! It was such an incredible day! We can see why you miss it! We hope you can come back and visit soon! Thanks for sharing

[@adolfosierra9762]

I left Colombia very young due to the violence and have only gone back twice since. It has been almost 8 years since the last time and I cannot wait to go back. Had my trip booked for last january but covid almost killed me. Spent christmas , new years and my bday in the hospital lol. Anyway, your videos bring a smile to my face. Because no matter what happened many years ago I always have the best memories of my beautiful country. I am so happy that through videos like yours people are able to see the good side of Colombia. Gladly I just saw my pulmonologist and he said that I am lucky because the new ct scan shows my lungs have made quiet the comeback :).so def hope I can visit soon. Keep up the amazing work!

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks for sharing! We hope you can visit again very soon. We are having a fantastic time in your country 😍 Really appreciate your kind words!

Great video guys, best one from Colombia. I hear next stop is Cocora Valley, I know it will be a great experience. As a Colombian, I thank you for showing that part of my country that not many outside of Latin America know. Colombia is way more than violence, drugs and that series on Netflix. And Diego, is a fine example how Colombians really are, courteous and extremely friendly.

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks so much! We really enjoyed creating this one even though it was a beast! Diego is such an amazing person and new friend 💜 We are super psyched for the Cocora Valley hike 😍

That grazing area rotation that you spoke of is an ancient way of cultivating grazing land that is very powerful. It has been used to revegetate completely barren areas in as little as two years, because certain areas naturally depend on grazing animals to eat the grass and then deficate, which is then a sustainable cycle. It's been used to reclaim desertified areas in Africa to great effect. It's amazing sustainability.

[@steveapplebaugh2200]

OMG....It is so breathtaking, but I cannot do what you guys did. I am truly petrified of heights, especially when cliffs with serious drops are involved. It is beautiful, though, and I am glad you shared the video with us (me).

[@tdiddle8950]

At 15:43, that's a heliconia, which shouldn't be confused with strelitzia, which is commonly known as the bird of paradise flower. But I must say that I've never seen a heliconia quite like that...that's what happens when one is trouping around Columbian cloud forests...you're going to see something unique. BTW, in those types of rainforests, there are humming birds that are specifically evolved to feed from and to pollenate those exact heliconias. They have a specifically shaped beak that fits the flower.

Hello guys, My wife is from Bogota and I am from Bucharest. We are going this winter holiday to Romania and next year in spring to Colombia.

Thank you for your videos. We wish you success and health on your future journeys. Dani and Alex.

I don't know if you are still here in Colombia but it would be amazing if you could be here to spend the night of candles on December 7, this date is special for us during the Christmas holidays. Whether in the cities or in the towns it is beautiful, many Colombians gather to light candles at night and the streets look beautiful

[@SammyandTommy]

This looks amazing 😍 Thanks for the awesome suggestion! We already looked at pictures and would love to make it back for the candles! If we do where in particular would you recommend? We saw pictures of Medellin and it looked spectacular but we might want more of a small town feel.

[@stefanny117]

@@SammyandTommy I could suggest these towns Villa de Leyva, Guadalajara de Buga, Quimbiaya or in Boyaca where there is a bridge which is part of our history. You can also see beautiful lights and I can recommend typical Christmas food such as lechona, tamales, buñuelos and and natilla I heard in Medellin and its surroundings will be lights themed on the Disney movie Encanto which is inspired by our culture but wherever you want to go for these dates is fine and the important thing is that you have a good time

The palms have evolved to grow very slowly to adapt the the low-light conditions of the jungle understory. It's amazing!

[@tdiddle8950]

At around 17:00, I was thinking to say that when you see epiphytes (like the moss on the trees), you see a healthy forest, when you pointed out a large-leafed epiphytic plant that I can't identify for sure but it must have been a type of philodendron. It was low-growing for an epiphyte (epiphytic philodendrons are known to tolerate low-light conditions), and the reason it had such large leaves is that it takes more leaf-space to capture light below the canopy.

These are not farms at all .... These are FINCAS ........ Many FINCAS .... Are valued at $ 10 million USA dollars.... With 15 acres in land ....and with cattle and cafeteros .zones ... In Spanish ..... FINCAS cafeteras .... Most FINCAS are owned by wealthy PAISAS... The PAISA country includes Medellin metropolis...and it extends to Manizales ...Pereira and Armenia which is valley of cocora ....which is where you are in this video...
