From The Coffee Region To Medellin

February 2, 2022 by Jason B.

The past week has been a blast. Pure fun and great new friends who i have been traveling with the past few weeks. Mark from Ireland and Iain and Dave from England.

Please Don't Judge Me

December 15, 2019 by Jason B.

I went to a cockfight and bullfight last week as part of the Feria de Manizales festivities. I was raised well enough to understand that these events are morally wrong. I still went because I have always been curious about them. I have to say that I enjoyed both fights, more or less.

The best part of wakin' up … is Colombian Coffee in your cup

November 23, 2018 by Jason B.

About two years ago I visited Colombia for the first time. I really enjoy it there. One of the many reasons why Colombia is so great is because of its famous coffee. I, like most people, drink coffee everyday. Being in Colombia, there was no way I could pass up visiting the birthplace of Colombian coffee, the Eje Cafetero, also known as the Coffee Growing region in … [Read more...] about The best part of wakin' up … is Colombian Coffee in your cup
