No joke-on the road(casually named) on the way to the farm.  Outside of a small pueblocito called San San Antonio southeast of Jamundi.  Sits up on the west edge of Los Farallones not too far from the RioClaro,  Also had bandits make a try but also too late-that's wen it went up for sale.

You can also say:

"Pueden llevarse a nuestras mujeres, pero dejen nuestras tickets de avíon."
You can have our women, but leave the plane tickets.

They are basically an organized crime group that controls coca-growing regions.  Stay away from them

FARC is:  Fuchi Anos Renegades Colombianos

One of the foulest smelling terrorist groups in the world.  They use no assault weapons, grenades, or road side bombs.

They simply load their gut up with frijoles in the evening, then commit mass flatulence raids througout the rural parts of the country.  It's all done in an attempt to scare off the locals and grab their land, where most of the prized pinto plants are harvested.

I've smelled them in action.  Nose plugs are useless.

There are a few shops in Bogota that sell military-style NBC suits (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical).  Buy two sets-- one for your chica--before you leave the outskirts of town.

Hope this helps.

Peace out!

By the way, their finger is like a grenade pin, so don't ever pull it if asked.

Largest of two rebel groups trying to overthrow (original stated purpose) the Colombian gov't for the past 40 years.  Mostly into kidnapping and narco trafficking these days.
