Rafting Rio Suarez 5/5

As the most important day trip in Santander I would definitely choose rafting in Rio Suarez.

Who knows me, knows that I am a new swimmer and rather uncomfortable in the turbulent waters. Well, the best way to get rid of a fear is face it - and in my case face it in a turbulent and crazy white-waters with waves up to two meters at certain parts.

It was absolutely amazing experience. Level 5 rafting is forbidden in most countries for safety, but not Colombia! Truly unique experience, a mix of constant adrenaline, being present in the every moment, physical effort. I loved every part of it, and even jumped in the river myself when it got a bit more peaceful, just to relax and enjoy the flow. Of course I was not able to swim back so had to just relax and let our rafting guide find me and pull me up. Hey, the gravity helped!

As a side effect of this amazing experience I became friends with group of four other travelers that were my rafting pals and we spend next couple of days together.

And I have only two shitty photos to prove all that 😄Okumaya devam et
