Your go-to Latin America blog! Travel, adventure, business, dating and danger in Mexico, Central and South America. Any man who's the least bit interested in Latin America has heard of Medellin, Colombia.
Its reputation truly does precede it. So, while this may see a trivial subject to some, I think it deserves a few lines. Medellin is famous for having some of the most beautiful girls in the world. Clear, blemish-less skin, dark hair cascading down to their sometimes fake ass, the way they talk, the way they move.
Any man who's been to Medellin has an opinion regarding the women. And that opinion is usually very positive. Girls in Medellin are said to be the most attractive in Colombia of course, Colombians from other cities will contest this, but they know in their hearts that Medellin is renowned.
Also, there is a larger emphasis placed on aesthetic beauty than in other parts of the country - you'll see a lot more women running and in gyms in Medellin than you would in, say, Cartagena. This obsession with beauty even extends to plastic surgery. It's not uncommon for girls to get breast implants or ass-enhancements, some even as young as 17 or 18 years old. So, you've basically got a city whose population is genetically blessed to begin with, maximizing their already-favourable qualities.
When I arrived to Medellin, I had high expectations. How could I not! From what I'd heard, I half-expected some kind of dreamland of beautiful women, where everyone from the barista to the bar maid was drop-dead sexy.
