people. Medellin is home to a population of about 3.8 million. It’s not so big
that it’s intimidating, but not so small as to seem too close after a while. What has struck me most about the people of Medellin is that they are mannered
in a way that’s almost considered old-fashioned nowadays. But it's sincere. The
gentle people of Medellin are hospitable, friendly, welcoming, warm, and
ever-ready to lend a hand. While there are currently few foreign residents in
this city, this is changing. And the local population seems to be embracing the
change.
