  4. Decisions, decisions!

    Blog: Hecktic Travels - 5 April 2010

    Seven months on the road, and these travelers are beginning to grow somewhat weary. The pursuit of adventure is alive and well as we still relish in each new vista seen or new friend met... but after seven months of living out of a backpack (five of which we have been constantly moving), breaking points are beginning to be hit, for several reasons.

  5. Hiking in the Valle De Corcora near Salento, Quindio, Colombia

    Blog: Trip Down - 21 March 2010

    I drove into Salento after visiting the coffee farm in Chinchina. Salento is a little town in the high hills that receives a large number of tourists.

  6. Cali - the eyes have it

    Blog: A Travel Diary from Mexico, Central and South America - 20 January 2010

    Cali is a place that everyone seems to go when travelling through Colombia and it is famous for its night life.

    Blog: Viva Latin America! - 18 January 2010

    I really thought I was too old for this partying-till-the-crack-of-dawn stuff.  It’s been a while since I’ve been awake long enough to see the sky get light.  But apparently I can still just about handle it, and it’s a good thing too, because a trip to Cali, Colombia’s alleged salsa capital, made it unavoidable. Cali is [...]

  8. Cali to Popayán

    Blog: One Year+ of Vagabonding through Latin America - 30 May 2009

    Cali, Colombia’s third-largest city, is known as the salsa capital of the country, if not the world. [Salsa the dance form, not the chip dip!] I didn’t get a feel for this famous party atmosphere since I wasn’t there over a weekend, but I did get enough sense of the place to form a positive [...]
