10 Things I Learned about Bogota


 1. It is over 8000 feet above sea level.

 2. Hence, walking uphill is difficult.

 3. Arepas are the quesadilla of Bogota.

 4. It truly is a tale of two cities…the north is super rich and the south is super poor.

 5. Traffic sucks.

 6. Trucks, buses, cars and motorcycles don’t have any particular lane to drive in.

 7. The TransMilenio buses rock.  They have their own lanes and don’t get stuck in traffic.

 8. When it rains, it rains a lot.

 9. It gets dark between 6:15-6:30 every night, all year round.

10. The temperature is between 50-70 degrees all year round even though it is at the equator.  (Remember #1.)
