Old spiritual village
August 9, 2019 in Colombia ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C
There are still people living there!! A bit adapted though .. like rubber boots 😂
But i received a big honor from the leader of the tribes he is called "el mamo" and it gift takes my bad energy and forms it into good energy 😋
It's really nice to see how they still live in peace with the nature and try to teach us younger brothers ( western people) how to be with nature!
And as soon you become a man you get a pumpkin and you smash shells in there and mix it with coca leaves and you get some kind of nacotic mixture.. if you get married you stay awake 4 days and nights with this stuff ... But just for the man.. the woman gets some tea 💪😂😂Read more

Little history lesson
August 9, 2019 in Colombia ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
We had so much luck to get the guide who's father was the first person to get to this place!!!
He knows everything about that place and is best friend with the spiritual leader since they were kids.
His father was just there to rob the gold from this place which was in the graves of the indigenous.
But later on.. he started renovating the place and took people up there.
He was once in a kidnapping accident as well with 8 travelers .. they wanted attention from the media .. but it was back then when the place was ruled by drug dealers.Read more

Way to tatacoa
September 27, 2019 in Colombia ⋅ ☁️ 29 °C
We wanted to leave at 2 pm .. and we endet up leaving at 9 pm 😂
Don't try to hire a car at Localiza!! We were at the office of them and needed to book it online after tripple checking everything we endet up booking on the wrong date and needed to adjust it but not before driving 4 times between the airport and the office of them 🙄
So we went 6 hours there while 2 hours were on gravel road and at night so we couldn't drive faster then 20 km/h.
But still we had some awesome views along the way and we had also dome kind of horse riding part in one of the villages so we needed to take a detour of 20 min because this was the only road of the village 😅
When we finally arrived.. did we realize that we had the wrong adress and needed to drive another 20 minutes to get to our destination 😂
The best thing was i was the only driver .. so it was pretty awesome 😅
And on our way back we got into a traffic jam so we spent 2 hours for 3 km in Bogotá 💪Read more
