Hi there, I'm Drew. I'm a professional boxer and former NCAA baseball player based in Miami. While I'm used to functioning in high pressure, need-to-perform situations during matches, I'm also one for rest and relaxation. Come slow it down with me in Medellín.

Colombia > Nothing Beats a Holiday to Medellín with Drew

Colombia’s coolest city, Medellín, is our playground. Prepare for street art walks through Comuna 13, where every mural tells a story, and soaring over the city on the Metrocable for views you’ll never forget. We’ll spend lazy afternoons in Medellín’s lush parks, hunt for vintage treasures in trendy boutiques, and snap photos in the city’s buzzing plazas. When we’re not uncovering Medellín’s secrets, we’ll take a day trip to Guatapé, climbing the legendary Peñol Boulder for panoramic lake views, wandering the town’s famously colorful streets, and relaxing on a boat ride across the reservoir. From exploring Medellín’s creative neighborhoods to celebrating with a farewell dinner at one of the city’s top restaurants, every moment will be one for the books.
