My DIL was an exchange student and spent some months in Colombia in the early 80’s, can’t remember the town, it was a fairly large one but I’ll check again with her.

She thoroughly enjoyed it and loved the people and culture. She had studied Spanish before going but became excellent at the language after having lived their.

The man of the family was a police chief and was fighting the drug trade and FARC factions. Several years after she returned home the gentleman was murdered and they figured it was by a group connected to FARC.

Thanks for your post.
