Welcome to Tanja's Blog about going to Colombia! For me this is going to be two first times: creating a blog and going to Colombia! I don´t have any experience with either, so I hope for the best with both! :)
For those who don't know: I successfully applied for an internship in Colombia via AIESEC and will stay in Barranquilla at the Caribbean coast from 03/11/2013-04/26/2013 to teach English workshops at a local university. I´m absolutely excited about it!!! :)
So excited that I decided to fly to Colombia 10 days earlier, right after my last exam in Germany, to travel the country a bit on my own!
I will arrive in Bogota, the capital, on 01.03.2013 in the late evening and probably stay there for a night. In the morning, I plan to fly to Medellin to stay there for a couple of days and do some roundtrips. Afterwards, I want to travel to the island San Andres in the Carribean sea, to depart to Barranquilla on the Carribean coast from there.
I will be travelling as a backpacker for the first time, on a very low budget and I only have 10 days for all this before I have to start my internship in Barranquilla... So let´s see if I can make all of it happen! :)
