... pa si ti misli. Faks na koji ide Andres (prijatelj kojeg sam upoznala u Austriji dok je bio na razmjeni) kosta nekih 1800e/semestar. Voda iz pipe (iliti cesme haha) im je puna klora te smrdi za poludit. Prvi dan sam skoro povratila samo zbog smrada. Nema sanse da pijem to sranje :D
Da, nisam rekla da Bogota nema metro!! Grad od 8 milijuna stanovnika bez metroa, nevjerojatno. Ali promet im je prilicno organiziran tako da nije tako strasno.
Inace, u ...
Tuiristren August 17th
Today is a public holiday in Bogota, city of many holidays. Most of the roads were closed for another ciclovia and gratifyingly a good proportion of the population were out early on bikes, rollerblades or jogging – much safer and easier with the roads free. Plenty of these health-seekers waved to us on our way to Zapiqueria aboard the Turistren. It seems the train is quite a novelty in Bogota, it runs only on the weekends and is very popular; on our ...
... the taxi to drop us off. All the drivers in Colombia seem to be crazy!
From Manizales we went on a day trip to the Sierra Nevada NP where we climbed up to the top of the volcano and had a snow ball fight on the glacier at 5125 meters above sea level. Unfortunately our guide did not speak English so we did not learn anything about the area but were able to appreciate its beauty. The following day we went to visit a coffee plantation. This place resembled what you ...
... agency, it still had higher prices that in country booking, but that was the only way for me, since i had so few time to arrive on site and solve transportation and lodging, that I didn't want to risk the trip. I used Roquemar travel agency, they are located inside the Maiquetia international airport arrival and I negotiated to pay them only on arrival (nothing in advance) I think they accepted because what low season My Package included: flight, lodge with full pension ...
Maiquetia, Central Venezuela, Venezuela vilaruccia... a few days here in Bogota last year and although I loved Bogota my heart is tugging me away, saying I have already been here... and let's see new things! So off I go in 30 minutes on yet ANOTHER LONG bus. This time to the border of Venezuela. I should be there right around 7am. WHAT AM I THINKING????? It is a good ...
Bogota, Colombia allisonakemiMy time in Bogota is coming to a close, after almost 5 days - and itīs been good. Seems that unlike Central American capitals, the South American ones are actually well worth a visit.
On the first evening in the hostel, some model agency girls were asking around for 8 gringo guys and 2 girls to act as extras in the Colombian soap īLas Detectivasī - apparently a Latin American Charlieīs Angels type production. The thought of 3 hot Latin ...
... to go relatively smoothly but the atmosphere is charged and at times the crowd almost erupts over relatively trivial matters such as where to line up or the exact hour at which the doors should close. I end up staying til 10pm as an unofficial Observador Internacionale watching with my own two eyes as they count the votes. At our center its an 80 majority for Rosales and as Seargent Carlos leaves with a black garbage bag containing the carefully ...
Caracas, Venezuela samwax... holes in it. Very tasty. There is one other local snack food that we heard about, and finally found in the airport on our way to Peru, cachapas. These are a big corn flour pancake, filled with - for a change - ham, and or cheese. On our last scheduled day in Caracas we finally found Indian food, and it was pretty good - better than your average Indian in New York anyhow, if no match for good London places, or of course the real thing. In Peru you get a lot of Alpaca. It ...
Caracas, Venezuela snsgowest... cancelled this leg when we changed a date on a flight a few months earlier in Chile!!! So we'd just have to be booked back onto the evening's flight, right? Wrong. The flight was fully booked for the next few days, and we were unceremoniously informed that we'd have to wait around on standby for a few days. Well, at that point Rich let rip, leaving the manager in no doubt that she'd just have to make a plan to get us on a flight to Europe that very evening. We ...
Caracas, Venezuela idarichHello everyone! This is a VERY long e-mail. So sit back and enjoy, that's what I've been doing! Since my last e-mail I have been very busy. I spent a few days soaking up the sun in the Bahamas with my dad and brother (hi guys!) and having a blast meeting my new classmates before boarding the ship. We left on the 30th and of course it happened to be a tropical storm that day, so we all piled onto the ship drenched, but still excited to be starting this journey. We said ...
