Our News

What music did I listen to this week?:

During my bus rides on public transportation, it's typical to hear salsa music and/or reggaeton music. 

What activity was the most fun this week?:

My hike in Valle de Cocorua and also my visit to a coffee farm in Salento were my two favorite activities this week. My partner and I took a "willy" (a jeep) ride to a coffee farm. It was raining while the owner of the farm gave us a tour. 

What did I read this week?:

I am currently reading The Elephant by Peter Carnavas in Spanish. 

What games or sports did I play this week?:

I played Tejo for the first time! Tejo is a Colombian game similar to darts--only when you hit the bullseye, there is a mini explosion. The game is fun but the explosive part of the game scared me a little. (I hate anything that abruptly explodes.)

Other news from this week:

My trip to San Andrés marks my first solo trip during this travel experience. While I have been on many trips all over the world, I have never gone on a trip completely on my own before. This trip thus far has enhanced my confidence and independence.
