South America

Palomino is a real Caribbean beach town. Took 2 hours to get there by bus with open doors. Stayed in a camping with really friendly local people. On the first day we were just hanging on the empty beach, was so nice that after a couple of minutes walk the whole beach was just ours, couldn't really swim cause the waves are massive and the rip tide is strong, the water was surprisingly warm. The sunset was just like on a cheesy postcard, beautiful.
The next day we walked for a bit further to go for a really magical place where the river flows into the sea. We could swim in the river right before the mouth, was really refreshing.
In the second morning we could see the snow topped mountains from the camping while we were having our local breakfast in our swimming costumes.

Seems like they are obsessed with fresh juices mostly made out of weird tropical fruits. Most of the times we have no idea what we would get just like with food. Really need some more Spanish!

And some other interesting things:

Tobacco is expensive as we heard 40-50.000 pesos (around 4500 ft/10pounds) and not even good quality but we have never even seen it in shops. Cigarette is cheap tho 2700 pesos (250 ft/ 50 penny) so no complaining :)

Still difficult to get used to putting the toilet paper into the bin.

Water is not drinkable from the tap, need to buy it in the shop, cheapest way is to buy a big 6 litre bag of it.

Haven't had any hot shower yet, again, no complaining it's actually not needed, so hot here.

Renegotiate the price, even for long distance buses. Easy to get a discount.

Colombian coffee IS amazing, they drink it without milk.Baca lagi
