Video: Traditional dancers in Cartagena,Colombia
It was a beautiful evening for a quiet dinner al fresco, on a sleepy street in Cartagena’s old city. Almost like magic, a caravan of traditional performers appeared in the dark night. The rhythmic music and bold costumes showcased the dancers, who moved barefoot on the cobblestone street. A few more dances were performed, coins were given by onlookers, and the troupe departed as quickly as they had arrived.
PS – This is my first video post… let me know what you think!
I always love the performances in Cartagena. Lots of music and dance there.
Me too 🙂 Nice to hear from you Scott, hope you’re doing well!
Good video! I love Colombia: vibrant, loud, colourful and always unexpected. Haha, I love the car alarm going off in the background too.
haha glad that someone finally noticed that… it was like makeshift strobe lights 😉
Interesting dancers of the night on the cobblestone street. PS: Have you seen the movie “Romancing the Stone” when they are in Cartagena? My boyfriend knows every word line for line of that movie and once told me he had lived there as a small boy.
Your boyfriend is in good company – my cousins and I used to love that movie! I actually wrote a post about it: https://kavi360.com/2012/02/22/romancing-the-stone/
What a coincident that I mentioned this. Like your post.
Great effort on your 1st video! I love love photographs but videos tell such a unique story 🙂
Thanks Rubella 🙂 I only wish I had taken more… keep that in mind for your upcoming trip!
I’m on it sista 🙂
