  • Colombia Hello there Ha, some of you already thought that I had already given up on this blog business. I must admit the thought had crossed my mind as well, especially considering my record at journal keeping as I told you earlier. Posted by ian.dupont in Ian's Travels | Nov 25, 2008
  • Medellin, Colombia It was a toss up between going back to Camila's lovely apartment in Bogota or going to Medellin, which is where her and her flat mates are from. After some raving reports from them and other travellers of the Posted by Peacocks in The Royal Turkeys hit S America | Nov 23, 2008
  • Medellín Pictures should be up soon on Shutterfly (http://beyondbogota.shutterfly.com)! "The city of eternal Spring" is Colombia's second largest city after Bogotá. With a mere 2.4 million people you shouldn't be fooled by its relatively small populati Posted by tuffchix in Bogotá and Beyond | Nov 16, 2008
  • Colombia - My Favorite Place of All Country of the Happiest People in the World When I look at the travel brochures and sites offering exotic trips to South America, I see Brazil, Argentina and Peru. Almost none of t Posted by gmarta in My Rainbow's End | Nov 18, 2008
  • Cumpleanos! Although I had a very long week of work, Friday made it all worth it. My students sang happy birthday to me in every class I had. My homeroom at the end of the day surprised me with Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Nov 16, 2008
  • Pachas First Reconciliation This has been a super long week, however there were many bright spots just the same. On Tuesday, the school celebrated Language Day, our own self-professed holiday. Unfortunately, we followed the schedule that is my busiest so I Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Nov 13, 2008
  • And we're off to a good start Let's be honest, when you get to the check-in desk of the airline you are flying with, many content themselves with the knowledge that they are indeed in the 'system'. No need to further antagonise the databeast with luxury inqueries Posted by ian.dupont in Ian's Travels | Nov 8, 2008
  • Bochica Camp It has been hard to concentrate on anything but the election since getting back to Bogota after this weekend, but our time at Bochica Camp, the YMCA's only campsite in Colombia, deserves more than just a nod. The campsite itself Posted by tuffchix in Bogotá and Beyond | Nov 5, 2008
  • GObama!!! Although I love Colombia, and had pretty much decided I would stay here for four years if the McCain/Palin ticket was elected, I am super super excited that I will be able to come home to a country I'm proud Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Nov 5, 2008
  • Taganga, Colombia We left Cartagena on the 24th October and travelled north to a small fisherman's village called Taganga... and have pretty much been here ever since! 10 days later and we are promising to leave tomorrow, which seems to be the Posted by Peacocks in The Royal Turkeys hit S America | Nov 5, 2008
  • How's Colombia? Oh, it's ok, you know... As many of you know (and worry about maybe due to such disreputable associations with Pablo Escobar), we're in Colombia and it is by far the nicest, easiest place to travel so far. There are plenty of other backpackers, English, Posted by axisofpete in Syd and Petes Excellent Adventure | Nov 3, 2008
  • Santa Marta and la Cuidad Perdida Santa Marta took some getting used to. After leaving the beautiful Cartagena behind, I expected to find similar beauty in a city that is even older. Being the place where Simon Bolivar died, my expectations were high. Instead of a Posted by dancordner in South American Adventures | Nov 2, 2008
  • Cartagena, Colombia Cartagena is a beautiful walled city up in the north of Colombia. It is really charming colonial town that oozes history with a really Caribbean feel, it reminds me a little bit of Cuba.

  • Bogota, Colombia Well , we're here! The departure day was a little less stressful for me as I had a mobile phone, a chauffeur and a gorgeous little puppy on my lap, yet Claire still made it to the airport before me, Posted by Peacocks in The Royal Turkeys hit S America | Oct 31, 2008
  • Tunja and Villa de Leiva According to anatomists, there are anywhere from 600 to 850 muscles in your body. In all my years of athleticism I am pretty sure I have only located about 70% of those, pulled or torn a solid 30% of those Posted by tuffchix in Bogotá and Beyond | Oct 28, 2008

Your can find it at http://beyondbogota.shutterfly.com/ or click here (http://beyondbogota.shutterfly.com/).

  • Coffee, hot springs, and pop-a-wheelie jeeps oh my! It's not every weekend that you swim in hot springs, sleep in a 5-bed attic hotel room, see a parade with cross-dressers, chickens, and jeeps, and dance three nights in a row. Ok well, maybe that last part Colombians Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Oct 14, 2008
  • Salud, Dinero, y Amor. [b]Before you start, just wanted to let you know how to actually access the pics, I didn´t realize you needed a log in to do anything. When you click a link to the pics and it asks for username and Posted by tuffchix in Bogotá and Beyond | Oct 15, 2008
  • bogota and cartagena As I was reminded the other day, it has been some time since I sent out a blog. So, time to send out some photos of Bogota and Cartagena to share with you all. For those that do not know much Posted by dancordner in South American Adventures | Oct 14, 2008
  • Getting used to things It’s not unusual to be riding one of the busetas (the crazy buses with no stops and no routes) and to have someone get on, ask the driver if they can make an announcement (aka collect money) for some booklet/poem/cause/candy Posted by tuffchix in Bogotá and Beyond | Oct 9, 2008
  • Poetry So I haven't written anything since I graduated, and while I was bored watching the debate last night I got inspired and wrote these two poems. These will hopefully be a start to weekly writing...I need to keep it Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Oct 8, 2008
  • San Agustín, Cali and Popayán - Colombia After our time in Salento we got a bus back to Armenia then took an overnight bus to Petilito followed by a collectivo to San Agustin. San Agustin is very laid back little town surrounded by beautiful rolling green hills. Posted by elliemike in Ellie and Mike's Trip | Oct 6, 2008
  • Las Pachas and The Scoop! Well, tomorrow is my last day of school until next Tuesday. I'm very excited to have a long break. I'm hoping to go traveling to a different city in Colombia, but if not, I hope I have some Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Oct 6, 2008
  • Welcome to Bogota! Thanks for your patience. Here is installment one: “Dos Mil Metros más cerca de las estrellas” – 2000 meters closer to the stars- that would be the Bogotan’s romantic description of their city, and a perfect explanation for the dizziness, nausea Posted by tuffchix in Bogotá and Beyond | Oct 6, 2008
  • You can't go wrong... Don't get me wrong, at school the cafeteria usually has delicious lunches (often very typical Colombian food). Today I basically had a Colombian mixed grill with grilled steak (carne asada), sausage (chorizo), potatoes (papas criollas), blood sausage (mo Posted by AmyLynn in Discovering Colombia | Sep 30, 2008
