What’s the experience like?

I’ll be honest, I thought the drive from Medellin to Jardin would just be a way to get from point A to B — but it ended up being one of those rides where you actually want the road to stretch out a bit longer. Our driver, Juan (he introduced himself right away), showed up outside our hotel in Medellin exactly when he said he would, which was already a relief after some of our other Colombian transport adventures. The van smelled faintly of eucalyptus — maybe just the air freshener, but it felt clean and cool inside. I remember thinking, “Okay, this is going to be easy.”

Juan didn’t rush us at all. He pointed out little towns as we passed and told us about his favorite bakery in Andes — we stopped there for coffee and these cheesy pastries called almojábanas. I probably ate too many but honestly, who’s counting calories on vacation? The road winds through so much green that at times you can barely see where the hills end and the clouds start. At one point, we pulled over so I could take a photo (which never does it justice) and Juan laughed when my Spanish slipped — pretty sure I asked for a “window” instead of a “view.” He just grinned and helped me get the shot anyway.

The whole private transportation thing meant we could stop whenever — not like those bus rides where you’re at the mercy of everyone else’s schedule. It was just us, our bags tossed in back, music playing low (some old salsa that Juan liked). We talked about football teams for a while; he’s an Atlético Nacional fan but didn’t hold it against me when I admitted I don’t really follow soccer. There was this moment driving into Jardin where the light hit the mountains just right — not dramatic or anything, just soft and gold — and I still think about that view sometimes. Funny how transfers can turn into memories if you let them.
