After two nights downtown, we were both ready to spread our wings and leave Segundo Avenue. We thumbed through Lonely Planet and basically let their suggestions guide us. Hostel Bekuo was one of the top affordable suggestions, and again, we couldn't be happier.

Off the beaten path in a beautiful neighborhood lies Hostel Bekuo - www.hostelbekuo.com. We were greeted by Hieme, a twenty something Colombian studying Business Management. He showed us around the commons, and finally to our room with private bath. I can't express how thrilled we were to be at a place that felt like home - clean, cozy, friendly, unobtrusive.

To celebrate, we bought some wine and kicked back in the garden lounge and listened to Latin music. Soon we had a small gathering, and Heime asked Cassandra, the girl from Canada, for a quick dance. It was great to be there and practically inspire a backyard salsa soiree. All the rumors are true, the Latin world is full of life.

Later in the evening, Storm, the owner of the hostel returned and I had the chance to talk to him about possibly a work for room and board exchange. Being the lucky SOB that I am, he said, "What are you psychic? I totally need new T-Shirts."

Yes!
