The Finca Life

We spent a weekend with friends at a beautiful finca (country estate) near Puerto Triunfo in Antioquia, Colombia. The beauty of the Colombian countryside is boundless. As with much of the rest of the country, there is also a complicated legacy here. Pablo Escobar’s former finca, Hacienda Napoles, is located nearby.
