Travel News

How far did I travel this week?:

With the long, three hour drive from Bogotá to Boyacá, and all of the towns that we visited, we must have traveled about 200 miles this week!

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

The Boyacá trip was just a small drop in the distance bucket, given all of the traveling I've been lucky to do! With all of the buses and flights around Colombia, Ecuador, Argentina, and Peru, I would estimate that I've traveled at least 1,000 miles. 

How did I get around this week?:

We took buses just about everywhere around Boyacá, though a couple of times we took cabs. 

What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

The most interesting place we visited was definitely the amazing cave where the ancient Muisca people used to bury their mummies. I had never come so close to an ancient burial tomb before!

Other Travel News from this week:

I'm grateful that we were able to visit Boyacá. From the gorgeous colonial towns to the vast páramo, it was very refreshing to experience such a different place!
