But those days are over, although you’ll certainly still find great coffee in Colombia. And these days, that cup of joe will cost you far less than any time in the last decade. The Colombian peso is in free fall right now. As we write this, it is trading at 3,237.61 COP to 1 US Dollar. Consider that just four short years ago, on this same date, the exchange rate was 1,774 COP to 1 US Dollar. In other words, your money will go nearly twice as far in Colombia today.
