Bogota was not at all as I expected, I initially thought the town would be grubby and a dirty capital. I was completely wrong though and visually found it to be a beautiful city.I arrived from Santa Marta by flight as it only cost me 50 pounds with Aires, the bus by its self is 30, so I felt this t…

Puente de Piedra is a really really small farming town which consists of one street with a number of houses and other businesses along its edge.  Yesterday we got up late and went hunting for an internet cafe just down the road from Don Rafas house. Before we got to the internet place w…

Travelling South America in one month ;)

Our route through Central and South America..

Hello all, I woke up at about 8am today, and kept thinking about that long bus trip to Medellin.  I heard it was a eight hour bus with some great mountain scenery, and I decided to take a day bus.  I haven't really taken a bus in the daytime on this trip yet, and I usually do enjoy …

Op 22 juli vertrek ik voor 4 maanden naar Zuid-Amerika. Het is waarschijnlijk een van de spannendse, boeiendste, gevaarlijkste en ruigste dingen die ik in mijn leven zal doen. Met deze blog kan je me volgen en een indruk krijgen van de avonturen die ik daar beleef.

Well. Looks like homegirl just can't stand still. I don't know what I'm doing.... Moving around the globe... Just moving.. Anyhoo. I've been loving life in Bogota ...for about four months. I can't entirely say that it was impossible to get a visa. I can say that I, as well as the company, weren't …

At last I made it out of Cali and my first stop was Bogota, which at 2600m or so is the 3rd highest capital city in the world, behind La Paz and Quito. Due to that higher altitude, the weather in Bogota is notorious for being cold and damp, unlike hot Cali, or the eternal spring of Medellin and the…
