May and Andrea discuss regional differences and accents across Colombia, popular expressions, and even a few ways that this accent is different from those you’ll find in Mexico or Puerto Rico.
Colombia is a popular place to learn Spanish, and Andrea has a few ideas about why that is.
In the episode, you’ll learn about grammatical differences with the usage of tú vs usted vs vos , and Colombian culture. You’ll also learn about Cartagena, Medellín, Bogotá, and Andrea’s hometown, Bucaramanga.
