It's fascinating that the "Great Stink" of 1858 was what finally forced Parliament to build a modern sewage system. It's a perfect (and hilarious) example of how progress isn't always driven by noble vision, but sometimes by sheer, unavoidable necessity. Amazing how a crisis can lead to innovation.
I live in Barranquilla, Colombia.
My city invites people to enjoy and understand the nuances of multiculturalism since it opened its doors to a number of immigrants that helped to enrich its history, as they arrived on the Caribbean Coast.
Barranquilla is full of job opportunities, hence people from the rest of the country come here in order to look for their dream jobs , having a glance to its architecture, here you can see and enjoy elegant neighborhoods, what is more in February visitors can live the best carnivals, colorful and vibrant parades that are meant to offer a marvelous experience of dances, disguises and the unparalleled happiness from its locals.
