sorry, only google translate… We really wanted to see the second largest city in Colombia, because it not only has a turbulent history with drug cartels and Pablo Escobar, but is also said to be one of the most up-and-coming and exciting cities in South America. And what can I say, you can tell by ...

sorry, only google translate… After six days of hiking we feel like a few days at the beach, and the Caribbean offers some good spots… We decide on the most famous Colombian island of San Andres, which geographically should actually be assigned to Nicaragua.

sorry, only google translate… Before our actual journey can begin, Tobi is still busy for the university in Dallas. Texas has a certain appeal for us, but we haven’t made it past Dallas Airport yet.
