A Quick Update From Bogotá

Things have been pretty busy since I left Santa Marta, and I've done a proper blog entry, but it's on my USB key which I don't have with me right now and may or may not be working due to the wonders of static electricity.

After Santa Marta I visited Cartagena which was beautiful, then Medellin where I went paragliding and am now in Bogotá, which I absolutely love. I'm staying with a Columbian guy I met during the Ciudad Perdida hike and he's been great at showing me around and introducing me to his friends. Last weekend and this weekend have been long weekends so there have been plenty of parties, but we haven't been limiting ourselves to weekends, with our best effort lasting from Wednesday to Friday morning. We of course went out last night (Friday), this time to a Brasilian party complete with live Samba, which was amazing and enforced the yearning in my heart to return to Brasil. We're understandabley tired, so I'm looking forward to resting a bit next week.

Next week will definitely be more relaxed as I'm having LASIK surgery on Wednesday. The place I'm going, Optilaser, is nice and clean, the staff and doctors really professional and I'm looking forward to the operation. This time next week I'll either be seeing fine without glasses or blind, so if there aren't any updates after Wednesday you'll know why.

¡Luego!
