of anyone. A Colombian will always stand out for his cheerful and determined
character. For many years, Colombia has been characterized as one of the happiest
countries in the world, any reason is good to meet with family and friends and
celebrate big where you usually dance and drink until the wee hours of the morning.

Colombian who respects himself drinks a cup of coffee anywhere and at any time,
either when visiting someone, at a work meeting or going out with colleagues. This is
no surprise to anyone since Colombia is the third producer of coffee in the world and
the first place in quality and smoothness of the grain. Colombians like too much to go
to breakfast at bakeries for a delicious coffee and breads filled with fruit jams. For
lunch, many restaurants offer menus consisting of typical food such as paisa tray,
arepa, sancocho, tamales, among others. Most people eat too many carbohydrates
and sugars.
In Colombia, Sundays are sacred to anyone, it is the day to share with the family, it
is the time when they can get together to enjoy lunch, a good chat and lots of laughs.
Since most Colombians' favorite activities tend to revolve around food, the best way
to spend a Sunday is cooking or eating typical dishes or, on the contrary, dishes that
allow them to experience and taste new flavors.

Colombians are mostly very Catholic, they celebrate regional holidays throughout the
year as El Corpus Christi, Holy Week, San Pedro, San Pablo, among many others.
In addition to the festivities, there are the saints to whom many worship and
pilgrimage sites that are frequently visited.
