Minca - in the heart of the jungle

After we conquered Ciudad Perdida we definitely needed a break and what better way to relax than in the middle of the jungle with so many hummingbirds and animals.
I truely loved Minca. The city is only 40 minutes away from Santa Marta but you definitely get the feeling you are in totally different place!
The fist day in Minca we were already able to witness an amazing sunset which made me so emotional because I felt so grateful in that moment about all the opportunities I have and that I can travel the world right now. And I also thought about my dad how proud he would be of the woman i have become!
The next day we only spend relaxing at the pool which was a natural pool and just enjoyed time for our legs recover.. And on the last full day in Minca we got up pretty early to do a birdwatching tour where we saw so many different species including a Tucan! I always wanted to see one and this once was very nice! I was so happy the whole time that I could capture all these Moment with my good camera. In the afternoon we then had a stroll around Minca which is nice little town only consisting of couple of streets and finally got back ti our nice hotel for dinner. The next morning we then left early to get back to Santa Marta and finally to Cartagena in order to start our Trip to San andres island which is a Caribbean island next to Nicaragua. It is the only island in the Caribbean Sea where you can pay with pesos as it belongs to Colombia.Read more
