Welcome back to Hourless Life where we are driving around the world. Today we are taking you on a walking tour of historically the most dangerous neighborhood in all of Colombia.
This place is known as Comuna 13. In this video, our guide, a local named Adrian who grew up in Comuna 13, explains the history of Comuna 13 and how it has changed into what it is today.
This is the short version of our tour that runs 11:55. We have an extended cut we plan to release as a separate video. Be watching for that within the next week.

Hey guys it's an amazing video! I'm proud that the Comuna 13 was part of your long trip.
I hope that the information I gave you is usefull for the ones interested in Medellín.
I send you hugs, please remember to stay good, you're welcome back whenever the road drive you here.
Thank you for everything you do!❤
Adrián we were honored to have you as our guide and thankful for the personal insights you gave us as a local of Comuna 13. Genuinely thankful for our time with you. Caspian sends his best and his special handshake. ~ Eric
We are coming in September, how do we book a tour with you?
Thanks for showing us what is going on in Columbia now as you are traveling through. Yes, a lot to learn and share.
And this is literally only the half of it! We’ll be releasing an extended version soon with more history on what took place in Comuna 13. ~ Eric
Wow you guys are very underrated you’re definitely gonna get far keep up the good work 👍👍
Brian and Joel, wow. I really appreciate your comment. The encouragement is needed. Especially in light of how difficult these videos are to film, edit, process, and upload with mediocre internet and editing from our Jeep. Thanks so much and welcome to our channel. ~ Eric
Thanks so much just remember me when your famous. (I’m one person lol.)
I loved this - thank you! We saw y'all in Guatemala from a bus and never got to say hi but we hope to be in South America this summer so maybe our paths will cross in the future! Keep up the great work yall
We'd love to connect if we are ever in the same area guys. We're a moving target though, so a bit difficult to pin down. Sorry we missed you in Guatemala, and hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. Please feel free to reach out to us on Instagram with a private message of your itinerary. We can see if there might be any intersection of our travels. ~ Eric
What an outstanding gentleman that young man is that was touring you around.
Jeff, he was great. Having grown up there he was very open and honest, extremely transparent about the history. I actually edited this video down s ton. There was so much information. I have an extended version of this exact same video that is twice as long. I plan to release the extended version later this week for those who want to learn more. ~ Eric
Awesome video as always Hourless Life. As fellow Jeepers have y'all read 31 Days in the Darien by Kevin Arnold yet if not check it out.
Thank you Christopher. Appreciate the kind words about the video. As far as the book, I haven’t read it but I watched a RUclips video of the same title that told the story. Fascinating and much respect to that group! ~ Eric
Working hard and they have hope….so emotional ….children and their paths …
Whitley, it was so incredibly encouraging to see the kids out there doing hip hop, breakdancing, and being actively open in their streets. From what Adrian told us, this is a massive change from just 10 years ago. ~ Eric
In March 17th TIME magazine included Medellin among the best 50 destinations in the world in 2023 and in January THE NEW YORK TIMES also included Medellin among the best 50 destinations in the world in 2023. Medellin is in fashion.
Overall we really enjoyed our time in Medellin. An incredible city to explore. However, we did have an incident that was concerning. But that will be in our next video. ~ Eric
Ok cool. I’ll watch another video about Medellin. Just please tell
me there is one about Jardín coming soon 😅
I have a lot of footage, and who knows what will end up in our next video of the adventure, but whatever it is, I hope you'll enjoy it! These videos are a lot of work, especially with limited internet down here and living out of a Jeep. :) ~ Eric
Was Comuna 13 a lower class neighborhood? Because if it was, that's the cleanest lower class neighborhood I've ever seen! I murals are awesome!
Our guide Adrian (who grew up in Comuna 13) said that we wouldn't have recognized this place just 10 years ago. The efforts we discussed in this video, and more at length in the extended cut of this video also available on RUclips have made drastic changes to Comuna 13 and it is an incredible place to visit. ~ Eric
@@HourlessLife it definitely looks like a great place to visit. Thank you.
They sent all of the trouble to Cali so this could be a tourist attraction.
The people of Comuna 13 have done a remarkable thing with their community. I don't really get the impression that they had any say in where the trouble went to, but I know they've been working hard to change where they are. ~ Eric
