Solo On Bogota's Dirtiest Street 🇨🇴
Рет қаралды 7,514,121
Жыл бұрын🇨🇴 Having checked into my hotel in the centre of Bogota I decided to go and take a walk around and see what the city had to offer. What I found was a place littered with rubbish, toxic smells and well, let's just say the world's oldest profession. However despite all that the people were extremely friendly and we met some Venezuelans who told me what to expect on my journey to their country. Join me on a street tour like no other...
This is part four of the Latin America journey from Cusco to Caracas.

I begin to understand bald's style: Walk tall, walk confidently, talk loud, act friendly to all, draw attention to himself. Bad guys are unlikely to mess with someone who has the full attention of the neighbourhood. And, oh yes, don't stop for long, keep on moving, and move quickly ! Love his stuff !

I'm from El Salvador. It's mainly about not going out alone at night in obvious sketchy places. Go to busy nightcluby places if you want to experience nightlife. The locals will tell you where you can't go. During the day just have common sense. 99% people don't want to fuck with you and just want to go about their day. Just be aware of your surroundings on the streets and you'll be okay.

I lived in Bogotá (I'm from Sweden) for about three years and never hung out in the city center/downtown. It's chaotic and noisy and crowded and gets dangerous at night. There are lots of nice and safe neighborhoods in Bogotá, further up North in Chapinero and Usaquen. Lovely country and people over all.

What Ben shows us is that wherever you go in the world 99% of people are friendly, happy to chat and good humoured. I've found the same wherever I've gone. The bit you have to worry about is how dangerous the 1% are. Ben is a polyglot - he is fluent in Russian, his Spanish is good enough to have conversations with people - and that's what makes the video so enjoyable - hearing from the "person on the street" (literally!). I'd love to visit Colombia but I wouldn't be as brave as Ben wandering around some ot those streets.

I think the scariest thing I ever done was walk from Chico to Chapiniro when I was in Bogota at about 2AM. All these cab drivers were following us wanting us to get in. We walked by the Spanish Embassy and there were a couple of guys in full body armor with masks and machine guns just standing outside in the dark. My buddy just walked around casually like the guy in the video. I gather that Bogota has two or three good parts and the rest is pretty scary. It was around New Years though and we got to see the display on top of Monserate. That was neat.
