Cartegena
Got damn Cartagena. I heard you were dope but I just experienced it for myself. and I must agree. 5 reasons why I loved
1. If you have read my other posts, you would know I love being amongst the locals. I’m telling you know they are dope AF!!! You ask how so. I’ll tell you. I had a break dance challenge at night at Plaza de la Trinidad. (Btw This place gets lit at night) I mean he was break dancing or whatever. I just did the two step and a very weak pop lock. Fellas I let a cutie pull my arm to teach me how to salsa at Cafe Havana. She tried. I failed but I tried. I tried to out drink some locals on the dope rooftop bar of Alquimico. I lost but once again I tried. I got into a freestyle battle with 2 young boys. I mean they rapped and when it was my turn all I could say was ayeee ayeee. I needed a beat and they didn’t care they just wanted the tip.
2. My Airbnb and host!!! I stayed in Getsemani! I mean when I arrived she had a welcome note and 2 bottles of champagne and fridge full of beer. (It was my birthday) I’m like is mami, trying to get me lit and take advantage. Well I was lit and she didn’t take advantage lol. I might have stood naked on my balcony one morning just to make sure but I’m not 100 percent sure I did that. But anyway I was in walking distance to anything in the Walled City...
3. I was a celebrity! I’m walking through the Walled city streets and I’m being called Lebron James (my hairline is gone too and my beard is dope I see the comparison), Rick Ross (I cut out carbs too and my beard is dope I see the comparison) and James Harden (I’ve never won a NBA ring and my beard is dope I see the comparison) I was feeling great! I was ready to sign autographs but they weren’t interested in my signature just my pesos. But flattery is a mofo. I was passing those pesos out. Shoot I was LeBron Harden Ross
4. I was a millionaire for a few days. Shid was LeBron Harden Ross. so I ordered myself a 49-million-dollar steak, I tipped $35,000 to a kid break dancing in the streets. I splurged on that $50,000 drink. I’m rich bitcccchhhhhhh lol. No seriously ok maybe all that cost me $75-$100 American dollars but who’s counting pesos to dollars. Lol what I’m trying to say is I got all that bang for my bucks
5. I was a heart throb. I mean the ladies were loving me! I was whistled at (so degrading lol). My hand was being grabbed. I was smiled at only at night though. I was approached and asked not to leave. My google translate couldn’t spit out the language fast enough. They were all beautiful. I know what you are all thinking, they just wanted some of my millions. Ok they did but so what I was living in the moment. And no I didn’t pay. That’s just nasty.
Yes, yes yes... I did some tourist stuff too my man Alex Rocha took me on a dope Palenque tour. A must do
I hit Rosario Islands a must..
