First of all, the main thing to keep in mind about Colombian people: They are open and
outgoing, much more so than the European or North American people. As a result, they
are people who love fun, who are kind and even a little unconcerned when compared to
other types of thinking. Colombia is one of the most optimistic and happy countries in the
world. The enjoyment of life is easily seen thanks to the dance, the party or what they do
at any time. Nightlife defines them as well as the parties of any social celebration.
Although in many parts of the country they are becoming more modern, the national
culture retains many traditional elements. One of the main areas where this is true is
primarily in the strength of family ties and the persistence of traditional household roles.
Throughout the country, the central block of society remains the family, both in its
immediate and extended form. For Colombians, the best way to live everyday life is by
interacting with their relatives. Family gatherings and social events are regular, and will
always give priority to the family than to friends. This can be somewhat complicated for
foreigners who want to integrate into Colombian life. Religion is reflected in its language
in everyday life. If you travel to Colombia you can hear phrases such as 'If God wills', 'May
God bless you', 'Thank God', etc.
