... And what made it even better was that unlike English and other European football teams, there was no agro (even in a mixed crowd without barriers), no fights, no violence. The presence of about 2,000 Robo-Cop riot police (seriously, with the bodybuilder shaped breastplates, cod pieces and wrap around headgear they were dead ringers) might have helped though. It was all good natured stuff, even in the ´fanatics´ stand, where there was crowd ...

... und viele haben wohl auch als erstes den „Reflex“ wegzulaufen wenn es ihnen zu viel wird. Aber genau das soll verhindert werden. Deswegen ist es auch sehr wichtig die Jugendlich zu beschäftigen und meine Chefin war ganz begeistert als sie hörte, dass ich in einer Tanzgruppe war und Yoga gemacht habe und will nun dass ich dort „Kurse“ gebe! Und deswegen werde ich auch von 10 bis 19 Uhr arbeiten, denn von 16-19 Uhr ist nur ein/e Betreuer/in (meistens ...

... found myself much more comfortable wandering around here than in Medellin as it has a slightly more upmarket feel to it.<br><br>There are plenty of museums if you´re into history or art. I thought I would check out the Botero meseum after seeing all those sculptures of his in Medellin, but managed to go there on the only day it´s closed (tuesday) so will check it out later today instead.<br><br>Yesterday, I took the Transmilenio (self ...

... van de weg afgeschoten, door een hek heen gegaan en tegen een boom tot stilstand gekomen. Flinke barst in het voorruit en meerder delen van de bus staan aardig uit het lood. Schijnbaar heeft de bus moeten uitwijken voor een vrachtwagen die aan de verkeerde kant van de weg reed.<br><br>Er wordt nog een poging gedaan om de bus los te trekken met een vrachtauto maar het touw dat ze hier voor gebruiken knapt uiteraard (dat had ik ze vantevoren ook kunnen vertellen maar ik wilde ook ...

... desfruté el rio y la conciertos gratis. Fumé un hookah, comí shwaramas, y le gustan la atmósfera* de las calles. Despues un horrible viajar a Quito, me quedé a la hostal Secret Garden y encontré mucha buena gente. Quito fue un poco peligroso, pero me subío un otro cerro sobre 5000m, y perdío las lugares antes... Colombia Solamente Bogotá... pero dos amigos, Hanno y Wiebke, me encontraron en hostal Sue... Bogotá es incredible, con calles llenas de personas y museos ...

... being gringo means you are ready to pay money for stupid things - but **** that noise  ... We paid a taxi to take us to Michel's place.  It was our first day in Bogota so we didnt really understand the streets yet, but it turns out it is pretty simple.  Bogota is in a valley between lush green mountains.   When you are in the city, it feels like you are in some sort of huge enormous green salad bowl.   You just see big walls of green ...

... reality of Colombia. Both my Colombian friends and I are used to telling people "it's not what it seems". We are used to stereotypes n the over-simplified visions that others have of our homes. I am fortunate that the friends I have here are politically conscious and are just as eager as I am to exchange information. I look forward to learning more about the complexities of this country and deepening my own understanding of the happenings here.

... the town. Here it was very calming and relaxing after crazy Bogota and I came to San Augustin because it is known for its archeological statues and tombs that are thousands of years old. I found this small town very pleasant and met many local people. While walking around the archeological park I was even adopted and taken in by a family on vacation. They asked me many questions, in Spanish, about my travels and were surprised I ...

... literally every 100 yards for 30 plus miles! But they weren't doing much, we didn't get stopped once. The ride was on a major highway going south, which was part 2 lanes and part 4 lanes. It rained in the afternoon of course. The countryside was quite pretty, not unlike Central America in that it is rugged with very steep hills and valleys, and very green. We passed some coffee plantations along the way ...
