Villa de Leyva

We had a hotel nearby so in the morning it was just a short drive to the bus terminal which was new and very modern and organized. So when we entered there was an overview of the next departures and all the bus companies with the directions. Super convenient and we found a bus company leaving 10 minutes later to Villa de Leyva. Perfect timing 😁 The bus drove through the center of Tunja so we got a free tour :)

It was a relaxed 40 minute drive up into a beautiful little town with small houses and a magnificent backdrop of the valley. First up we tried to find Julia's school friend who lives there with her husband. There had been a little miscommunication so we didn't have an address but Julia did some detective work and after a little walking we had found the language school. She had lectures until early afternoon so we had time to explore the town which had a unique and very pleasant flair. After a typical Colombian lunch from the region (Boyacá) we met up with Anaïs and walked to her apartment a little bit outside of the center. Then we chatted for hours, it was really nice seeing her and her husband, Javier, again because at the wedding we didn't really have time to talk. The time flew and we needed to get back to the bus terminal to go to Bogotá. But we'll probably see each other again soon in Europe 🥰

We arrived just three hours later in the main bus terminal which is unfortunately quite far away from the city center. So we just got a taxi to bring us to our hotel, where we settled down and tried to go to sleep early... Czytaj więcej
