Hola Amigo! So I hear Ross and Matt are visiting you right now! Megan and I are just back home. I'm excited to be here at the moment, to see people and reflect a bit. We had the most incredible trip. I think Colombia was really my favorite of all the countries we visited...it seems so long ago now that we were there. There is so much more to see and I will definitely be back. Thanks so much for putting us up and showing us around in Bogota...it was definitely a great way to transition into our adventures ahead. Please say hi to Andrea and Miriam! Hope all is well with you!

Yeah I got to spend a few days with Ross and Matt. It was a blast hangin out with them and showing them around. I'm glad you really enjoyed your time in Colombia. It really is a cool country. Andrea and I are currently on the island of San Andres, but we get back to Bogota tomorrow. I will be sure to tell Andrea and her Mom you said hi. We will be headed to California in June so we should definitely get together in SF if you are around. We are planning on staying for a couple of months. Talk to you soon.

Something is going on with Mother nature and Bogotá is having the strangest weather since many people can remember. One of the Matador bloggers Ricardo posted some photos about the hailstorm that took Bogotá by storm dropping 6 feet of hail in less than 10 minutes on Saturday. On Sunday there was a...

Halloween isn't a big deal in Colombia, but I was able to track down a Halloween party. My experience living in Latin America you see a lot of witches and devils and nothing really off the wall. This year we decided to keep our costs down and get creative (well I guess we do that every year). A couple...
