So just last year, my girlfriend went to Colombia (in Medellin to be exact) and told me over and over again how beautiful and hot the women there are. She even joked about wanting to hook up with one as they are extremely sexy. Now, I don’t know if that is really a joke but if it’s not… then I want a piece of the action.
