Medellín, Colombia

Going to have to start combining days here in the city since there isn’t much adventure going on here. The last two days were pretty much the same. 2 hours of private salsa lessons each day with one of two classes of Crossfit. My salsa had really progressed a lot the last few classes. I have this new girl I’m dancing with and everything clicks so well with her which means I’m super determined to keep coming back now.

I’ve been looking into my trip to Ecuador and it seems like I’ll be fine getting into the country and then getting right back into Colombia when I’m done there. But that’s just what I hear so ill find out what’s going to happen when I get to the border. Alex brother you should be expecting a phone call from me around the 24-25th to do some heavy translating for me! Hah

I’m excited to get out of Medellin and hit the road again. The salsa classes sure are fun and getting myself back in tip top shape sure is good for me but some adventure would be nice. I’m thinking about stopping in the desert on the way to Ecuador or on the way back from Ecuador and doing some camping. I’m pretty bummed that I won’t be able to do much camping on this leg of the trip since I won’t be getting south of Ecuador.

One thing I wanted to mention is how I really am getting sick of Americans that have so much trash to talk about Colombia but have never been here. I heard about it a few times already from people reading my blog. This is why people hate Americans so much. They have so many opinions and know so many facts about a place they have never been to. It blows my mind and annoys the hell out of me every fucking time I hear it. Colombia is by far my favorite country of this whole trip and I don’t think anything will beat it. I mean Peru and Argentina might be nicer in the back country which will be a much more different experience but all around this is my favorite country overall. Even more than Italy.

And yeah for the tenth time there’s crime everywhere. Alot of these people think everyone gets murdered in Colombia. Hell they can’t even spell Colombia properly.

Well that’s that for the last two days. Tomorrow and Friday I am not going to Crossfit. Just taking two hours of salsa tomorrow night so I have the next two days to go explore the city a bit before I leave. I’ll post some nice pictures from the exploring I will be doing!
