One of the most beautiful places I’ve been! It’s in northern Colombia, right on the beach, no electricity and amazing food!

Was recently added to the Lonely Planet Colombia as one of the best places to visit!

Ecoogler is a search engine that donates money to reforest the Amazon jungle.

For every search you make a leave is donated. 10,000 leaves are a tree. It may not sound much but just think of how many time a day you search something in Google and then you might realize that your two cent CAN and WILL make a difference!

Help out, use Ecoogler. Plant a tree.

After almost five months of staying in Bogota, basically Home-University-Home, I’m going on a trip!

The destination: Natural park El Cocuy, Colombia. Closer to Venezuela than it is toBogota, El Cocuy is a mountain range that goes up to 5300 meters above sea level (masl)! There is even snow (in Colombia that is a definitely a WOW).

Most of the landscape is Paramo, a certain type of ecosystem only found in South America, which Colombia has more than 60% of it. It starts at 2800 masl and finishes where the snow begins (4200masl).

We are going to camp, enjoy the stars, the silence and what I enjoy the most the cool fresh air.

I’m leaving today, be back on Monday.

Wish me luck!

Why keeping this blog alive? It’s hard to say. I’ve had it for almost three years now, and it was my daily contact with the world for over two years. I guess it’s just a bit nostalgic.

Anyhow, que viva Just strolling around…
