DESTINATION: CENTRO HISTORICO Cartagena, Colombia -  Cartagena's old town is a beautiful explosion of colour and culture. It's easy to idle the time away juat wandering the streets, finding something different on every corner. Despite the old town being filled with boutique coffee shops, there's still a lot for the budget conscience traveller. 

HOW TO GET THERE: Cartagena has its own airport or you can catch a bus from other major cities in Colombia. 

WHERE TO STAY: Green House Hostel - Is in the centre of the Old Town and breakfast is free! Unfortunately accommodation in Cartagena doesn't come cheap. A bed in dorm room with a fan costs 11GBP/40,000COP per night.
