How to find your way in Colombian cities.
Is not easy to find an address in Colombian cities, even asking, and even asking in Spanish.
Two "types" of streets:
Calle - running from East to West
Carrera (Cra, K, Ka) - running from South to North
Ex.: in Medellin "Club 55" address is: CALLE 55 #45 - 44
Look for Calle 55 and Carrera 45, from this corner you have to go 44 metres toward Carrera 46. And Club 55 is at your right (even numbers right, uneven numbers left)
Calle 55 is named PerĂº also, but just a few streets have a name.
Ex.: "Donde aquellos Bar" address is: Cra. 38 #9A - 26
You have to go 26 metres on Carrera 38 toward Calle 10 (the next after 9A) the bar is on your right and we can have a drink!
Just a trivial details but it can help.
