Taganga....






So there are no words to describe how beautiful Taganga, Colombia is.. but I´ll try. Imagine the Sea of Cortez in the Baja mixed with Greece, and then Brazil´s amazingly vibrant culture and nightlife....
Ya I love it here, and I wish I had more time here. Everyone I have talked to pretty much feels the same way, Colombia just has amaizng vibes. The people are soooo nice here. There is a poster advertising Colombia in our Hostel and the caption on in says, in Spanish, ´the danger is... you´ll never leave´! And its true, Colombia feels the safest of anywhere that I have been so far, a lot of other travelers agree. Hoenstly people are so nice and most of the prices are fixed prices. Anyway, enough raving on and on about Taganga...
But seriously folks, Taganga. Fruit smoothies here are less than a dollar, beers are around fifty cents, street food and Ceviche are plentiful, and there is music and dancing every night... not to mention a perfectly temperate Carribean Sea within a minutes walk of the hostel. So I hasve spent the last few days swimming, hiking, reading, drinking 1-3 fuit smoothies a day, laying on the beach making jewelry, and dancing all night....
So there you have it,my number one choice for paradise so far: Taganga.

I am starting to miss the Americans though, I never thought I would say it but I met a bunch of Americans that own a Mexican Restaurant in Santa Marta today and it hit me... Damn I miss my friends from back home! There is something about the humor and cockiness that almost no other nationality has... Except English who have a bit too much of both, ha ha, oh I love to generalize all nationalities.

However, I do miss my friends from back home... and just being familiar with someone´s background and culture... its nice sometimes. But I guess I will be seeing you all at Burning Man anyway sooo....
