Ideas on How to Tour Colombia

Colombian Highways (AutoPista):
If your behaving well in Colombia, the biggest problem you will have is getting a cold! Or, suprisingly accurate is the commercial which states, "The only risk is wanting to stay!", and I am not kidding either. The current Colombian president Uribe, now in his second term has made the highways safe and secure. Security is how he got elected and re-elected. Colombians travel on the roads more than ever now. You can see porches, BMW and many other types of expensive cars cruising the highways in Modern Colombia. It is quite a different image than what people have in their heads from watching the movies and hollywood films. I have to be honest, it took me a couple years to relax and take it all in. When i travel out of my neighborhood i still get people stairing at me all the time, but I dont look like i am from here either. Tourism is quite new, and is an area of rapid growth in Colombia, but don´t be shy because most Colombians love to talk, you just have to say buenas?, or como estas?
