Estelar Hotel Milla De Oro Medellin

... dog. However, now I am a dog beater. J<br><br>Another good day was when my buddy Kiwi from Ireland showed up and he and I went out to see some sites. While we were out, we met a girl from Mexico City and ended up spending the day together walking around and taking pictures. She had a very dry sense of humor and sharp whit. It was like hanging with myself. She knew I was a tourist and spoke English because I was so loud. J J Ah, the loud American ...

... cable tv, having cat naps and doing bugger all.<br>Around 6pm a few boys from the hostel went up to the local soccer court and we played soccer with some colombian guys. A good laugh.<br>After the soccer we showered and went to an expensive steak restaurant, a nice chance from the menu of the day places I have been eating at.<br>After dinner we just went back to the hostel, had some beers and went to bed. nothing much goes on on sunday or monday nights in latin america.<br ...

... trafficking capital of the world and the home to Pablo Escobar´s cocaine cartel. My first choice hostels were fully booked and so I ended up going to a party hostel run by an Irish guy that was pretty terrible. It was packed out, over-crowded and people stole my food so I didn´t really enjoy it much. I did, however, get full use of the cable tv and flat screen and watched many hours of quality tennis and the England match. I passed on partying with the moronic guests ...

... the city and (even after a crazy long journey with no sleep) we went out for a few drinks in the Medellin parks and a bar. And we now feel like we know every artesan in Medellin as Puas knew and introduced us to everyone. Our arms and legs are full of bracelets which were gifts from Puas and his friends. We´ve never receieved as many compliments as we did in Medellin and Cartagena...and not as much hissing which was a nice change.

... nur die Leute, mit denen ich weggegangen bin, haben mich genervt. Also ich fand die einfach doof. Aber egal, dafuer war ich umso lustiger...;) Ja, die Schwedin ging mir naemlich mit der Zeit auch ganz schoen auf den Kecks. Musste sie dann irgendwie loswerden und habe also am Busterminal von Medellín zurueck nach Bogotá beschlossen, in einen anderen Bus zu steigen, naemlich in den nach Bucaramanga. Jetzt mach ich halt einen Umweg, dafuer ohne nervige Schwedin...;)

... my time in Medellin the city was celebrating their annual Medellin has a fantastic MetroCable system- the only one of its kind in South America. The MetroCable is very similar to the BART or CalTrains system that we have in the Bay Area. Although there are oodles of buses and boat loads of taxi's they are virtually unnecessary with this system. And guess what the best thing about this system is??? I DIDN'T GET LOST ...

... focus of his work, the roundedness aka 'fat', most effective and striking when experienced in three dimensions. Fat. Not 'ph' fat. Just good old 'if it sits on you it's gonna hurt' fat. Speaking of which, my ass hurts. Too much information? Reflecting back on my time in the Medfeelin area, it occurred to me that the majority of my stay was spent sitting. I attribute this pain in my ass to all of this sitting on it. It's not ...

... We had lunch with her mother and her mum`s boyfriend, German, both of whom are completely crazy...(in a good way). German is an artist, so the house is stunning. Huge windows letting in the great views.....Paintings and flowers everywhere.....After lunch we had a "jamming" and dancing session....playing the various precussion instruments German owned (including paint brushes to play the drums). It feels good to settle ...

... by the paintings and poems, all searching for peace and end to the war. When I asked her if she had any hassle from the paramilitaries in doing this, she said that she had to be careful, but that everyone around recognised that this was something non-political so she was fine. I also think that her intelligence helps her. She knows how to conduct herself infront of paramilitaries and is usually quite outspoken when she has witnesses around her. We were ...
