I am a a workaholic, young, midle aged woman whose sole aim in life is to see as much of the world as possible. I love music, the theatre and the natural world. I also love my kids! and so as not to upset him, the dog. I am not special but I am unique..

I went to Colombia for the first time in August 2006 with my family and friends asking 'why?' The immediate response to my decision to travel there was that it was a place of drug runners, murderers and thieves and yes, maybe parts of the country are best left alone but the rest of it is so big and so beautiful that to not see it is a crime in itself. I stayed in Quindio but we traveled hundreds of miles in all directions from there, as far as Medellin, Bogota, Corcora, Villa de Leyva and Gautape. Each turn in the road brought with it a new visual experience and a view more spectacular, although the 8 hours taxi ride from Quindio to Bogota was one I might not repeat. Mountain folk on horses pull up alongside the 4 x 4's, children sit on the side of the road selling corn or arepa, streams tumble down mountains and the earth is red covered in a green and verdant blanket. There are too many ways to describe this beautiful country than could ever fit on this page and not enough to describe the hospitality of the people and the joy of just having been there

Advantages: Amazing cuisine; coffee; very, very cheap; locals are charming and helpful Disadvantages: Kidnapping. Like the Sword of Damocles, a pall of fear hangs over everyone. Beggars/prostitutes. Oppressive humidity in Buenaventura.
