Cartagena, Colombia: First Impressions & Culture

Cartagena, Colombia is a city of striking contrasts—lush greenery and modern skylines, centuries-old walls and vibrant neighborhoods full of color, culture, and resilience. In Part 1 of this Cartagena travel series, I share my first impressions of the city, from arriving and settling into Boca Grande to exploring everyday life, local shopping, and stunning coastal views. You’ll see where I stayed, why location matters when visiting Cartagena, and how slowing down helps you truly experience a place. I also take you on a guided walking tour through the historic Walled City and Getsemaní—two neighborhoods that reveal Cartagena’s layered history, Afro-Colombian culture, and powerful sense of identity. From colorful street art to stories of resistance and community, this day offered deep context for understanding the city beyond the highlights. This episode is part of my daily travel series, Chasing Travel Beauty, where I explore how travel—near or far—can be a catalyst for growth, healing, and hope.
