I visited Barranquilla a while back and thought it probably wouldn't be a very good place to live/work. Is anyone here on the forum living there right now? How do you like it?

Can you please elaborate a little bit on why you like it? I'm growing tired of my current city. Looking for a little bit bigger of a place.

I love it. Close drive to beaches and it has everything I want. I am in the process of purchasing an apartment I like it so much.

It's always been a great compromise.. Feels touristy, feels homey, most beautiful women from Colombia are from there, Great port with one of the First imports like Bogota, international airport, car rentals, clubs, bars, restaurants with Colombian, South American. and gringo flavors. Great music. Shopping galore. Great breezy weather. Close to Santa Marta and many other beaches... Etc etc

Bucaramanga is boring, and the people are nice, but they just take themselves way too seriously. They have this thing where they make a huge deal out of really minor stuff. I think there's probably a lot less of that on the coast. Might be more my style of life.
