My final day in Bogota was a typical one. Buying gifts for the family back home and one more night of partying before making the big trip home again. Day 37Back to Bogota! I caught a bus in the morning from the terminal of San Gil. The bus that was meant to take 6 hours eventually took nearly 9. The bus was half an hour late and once we got to Bogota we got in to the...
White water rafting on a level 5 river, canyonning jumping from 6 meter high cliffs, caving through tiny openings in a cave, repelling down a waterfall and visiting what is known to be one of the most beautiful towns of Colombia. It pretty much sums up the few days I spent in San Gil Day 34After catching an overnight bus from Taganga I arrived in the early morning...
The last week has been a really active one. I hiked for 5 full days to a city hidden far away in the jungle. This ¨cuidad perdida¨ has only been discovered back in 1972. Before this time the city was hidden for over 400 years. The trek was intense and a tad harder than expected. Read everything about it in my blogpost below! Day 26The saturdaynight became a...
As of now I am a PADI certified advanced open water diver! The past week I´ve been hanging out in this touristic fishers village called Taganga. I´ve also spent the night in a tent in Tayrona national park, a 45 minute boatride from here. End of Day 19I signed up for BBQ at the hostel. It turned out to be a big plate of food including steak, chicken, sausage and...
Refrigerating busses, colonial forts, boat trips, amazing food, paradise beaches, a rooftop bar and swimming in a mud volcano. It´s some of the stuff I have been experiencing the last few days.. Check it out! Day 13After a refrigerating busride I arrived in the early morning in Cartagena. I had been warned about the airconditioning in Colombian busses, but it turned...
Cable carts, Pablo Escobar, Botanical Gardens and coffee plantations. It pretty much sums up my latest week of adventures out here in Colombia. End of Day 5After updating my blog I hung around the hostel and went for a little walk around Medellin. The town is safe enough to walk around at night, especially when you´re in a big group. Unfortunately on...
Sooooo, here´s the first post of my latest adventures here in Colombia. So far I am loving every bit of it here, apart from the weather which hasn´t been as great as I hoped, but hey.. that won´t spoil all the fun I´ve had so far. One of the things I´ve noticed is that Colombia is far more western than some of the other South American countries. Most people seem well...

Day 33After arriving back in Bangkok rain was pooring down like crazy. We grabbed our backpacks as soon as we could and walked down to the guesthouse we had been staying at the start of our trip. Thankfully the guesthouse had a room available for us and didn’t charge us for checking in so early. We had a little sleep, as the sleep in the bus was not enough to...
