Someone from a small town or the countryside who acts naive or out of place in the city. In Colombia, tierrero describes the wide-eyed rural arrival who doesn't know urban codes — sometimes mocked, sometimes said with affectionate recognition.
"Se nota que es tierrero, no sabe ni coger un taxi en la ciudad."
"Éramos tierreros cuando llegamos a Bogotá, sin saber nada. → You can tell he's from the countryside, he doesn't even know how to hail a taxi in the city."
"We were small-town kids when we arrived in Bogotá, not knowing anything."
