About a year ago I spent three gorgeous weeks in Colombia with the always fun Abbie of Speck on the Globe.
We started in and around Bogota, Colombia’s capital.
We took a day trip to Zipaquira.
And took the funicular up to Monserrate.
We then flew up to Cartagena, Colombia’s most popular coastal town.
A morning walking around the colorful Old City section of Cartagena
We spent a sun-filled day on Baru Island, an adventurous boat ride from Cartagena.
And rented a car to explore more of the area.
Next we headed to Medellin, one time most dangerous city in the world. I found it beautiful and full of hope.
I climbed the 740 steps to the top of La Pierda and was rewarded with a view.
A long and winding bust trip brought us to the gorgeous coffee land of Salento where I learned about the production of my favorite morning beverage and was surrounded by incredible landscapes.
I could have easily spent several more months exploring this incredible country. Such lovely people, a chance to practice my rusty Spanish and a stunning land of diverse landscapes.
Stunning photographs, fascinating adventure. M 🙂
Thanks!
