It was sometime around 10:00 p.m., when I felt the initial signs of turbulence bend the wings of our 757 as we entered the mountain range leading us into the Valle de Cauca. The Mountains of Colombia could be seen clearly under the moonlight as we began our descent into the Cali airport. It was the…

SWYO tour of Colombia

Aside from Art Basel, this is probably the most exciting event to take place in Miami. On Saturday, November 3rd, 2007, Sleepless Night drew thousands of people from 6PM to 6AM for 13 hours of culture all over the City of Miami Beach. For more info on this event, visit www.sleeplessnight.org. It's sure to happen again after all the attention it got this year.

I've found the place I was looking for Carnival time, and it’s Barranquilla, Colombia. I've been to quite a few places, and I have to say that my trip to Barranquilla has been one of my best experiences ever. Barranquilleros are very warm, happy and friendly people, and the women are absolut…
