YouTube Video Description

https://www.retirementtravelers.com Our Medellin, Colombia travel vlog recaps our stay in the El Poblado neighborhood of Medellin and why we love this city so much. We ride the Medellin Metro, visit Parque Arvi, eat some delicious obleas, visit the botanical gardens and see the amazing sculptures of Fernando Botero in Botero Plaza in downtown Medellin. Medellin is a town with near perfect year-round weather, low cost of living and plenty of things to see and do. We encourage you to put this wonderful city on your travel bucket list.

But, that is what we did! We work hard every day to become better and create something that others will enjoy. Having a community of friends, old and new, follow our journey is fun and exciting to us. In 2019, we achieved our goal of visiting every state in the union in our Airstream. We also visited every national park in the lower 48. We are big believers in lists, so of course we plan to see the remaining 12 parks in the next few years. In 2021, we made the big decision to extreme downsize to just a suitcase and a small backpack, each. We started our journey around the world beginning in Central America. We hope that over the next ten years, we will have seen many beautiful things, made many memories and new friends, and shared the experience with our children and grandchildren. We hope you enjoy the journey with us. Drop us a note in the comments and be sure to hit subscribe! 🗺 🎥 🌮
