Landscape view of houses in the city of Medellin

I have lived in a beautiful city since I was 13 years old, named Medellin. The city is better known as The City of Eternal Spring; this is because it has a pleasant climate of around 22 degrees Celsius or 72F generally all year round. Medellin has one of the best climates of Colombia. It's a modern, clean, and safe city, located in a valley. It's surrounded by mountains. In this city you can find a diverse variety of trees and flowers, accompanied by a fascinating blue sky. "Paisas," as the people of Medellin are known, are very cheerful and hospitable, eager to make foreigners stay a pleasant experience. The city has a wide variety of restaurants to visit, and the food is delicious; the fruits and vegetables are always fresh and of high quality. Medellin is a beautiful and welcoming city that inspires me to dream every time I visit.
