                    <title>The Independence</title>
                    <description>So remember how a few months ago I tried to sail with two friends from San Blas Panama to Cartagena and wound up in a storm clenched to a canoe for two days Well I thought I would try to do this trip again apparently the fear wasnt slammed into me hard enough. Both my friends I dragged on last time think Im absolutely nuts to do a second attempt which is perfectly understandable and pro</description>

                    <description>Before I update you on Haley39s visit especially the boat to Panama I39ll give you a bit of the job update. Since I39ve gotten back I39ve been offered a bunch of jobs.I told my super friendly neighbor and this owner of this super yummy Japanese restaurant about what had happened and right away they gave me soo much hope ensuring me that my friendly face could get something in no ti</description>

                    <description>Oh where to begin this one. I suppose I can start off by saying the adventure is back on that the everyday habituals has officially come to a close for me. What I mean is that Ive been fired for faults not of my own and Ive decided to stay in Colombia a while longer. What this means for you is that youll get some more exciting exotic stories from me again as I39m about to embark o</description>

                    <description>We left Saturday morning to Santa Marta a 4 hour bus ride to meet up with Stefan and Willie for my nice long weekend off. After a confusion of sorts on where we were supposed to meet up with the boys and losing my phone in a taxi which Juan Manuel immediately jumped on a random motorcycle to go chasing after the taxi in a sea of taxis in order to try to get my phone back but returned with no </description>

Besides now that its everyday sort of things I dont think theyll excite you too much. But do keep checking every now and then for a new entry So Ill try to give the highlights in short1 My bday.

                    <description>Wow Karma works fastMy last day at the Blue House Hostel was the 13th. Since then the other three staff members left within the same week and the place has gone down the drain. The girls are not paying their employees and if they are they39ve cut their pay without notice and the amount is not enough for these women and their families to survive off of. Two weeks have gone by and they haven</description>

                    <title>The Colombian Way of Doing Business</title>
                    <description>I was stoked to be starting my new job and life in Cartagena. I definitely needed to get out of Ibague and I had already fallen in love with Cartagena. The job description at this super chill hostel I got seemed unreal but it was just thatunreal.Upon my arrival to my new home I was quickly slapped in the face with a very different job than what I had agreed upon just a week and half prior. I wa</description>

                    <description>And so my time at Manos AmigasLets Go Volunteer has come to an end. Im so blessed to have met each and every single child as each one has touched my heart. Theyre incredible groups of children all so strong and so positive in the least desirable of conditions. Theyve confirmed my belief that you dont need things to be happy its just those around you and the experiences you create</description>

                    <title>Playing With Fire Over and Over Again</title>
                    <description>The coastal vacation started off with plans to spend soaking up all the joys paradise has to offer but turned out to be quite a crazy death defying adventure. We basically found ourselves constantly playing with fire and somehow only coming out with a few burns. I seriously dont understand how we survived them.Carrie is another volunteer from England and had planned to travel to the coast on h</description>

                    <title>Sin Papa</title>
                    <description>Being here for a long time means getting to know the harsh backrounds of quite a few kids that come to both centers I volunteer at. Lots of reality checks and heartbreaks most of which I39ve learned in the past month or so.One is about Samuel and coming to find out his father beats him. I39ve always said since the beginning that I knew something was wrong at home. I thought his father had l</description>

                    <title>A Grand Plan</title>
                    <description>Last week we decided to take the kids from Manos Amigas my location up a nearby mountain to one of the waterfalls to ring in the new year. Now this sounds like a grand ol39 plan but this is Colombia here which means that this plan is really just a tricky situation.I actually almost didn39t go that afternoon since clouds were threatening rain and I didn39t feel like going on a really</description>

                    <title>The Salsa Capital</title>
                    <description>Yamile and I escaped super last minute to Cali for NYE. It was Thursday night and she came over to see where we would be off to next. Since Cali is the Salsa Capital and hosts the Salsa Festival from Dec. 26  31st stars attend and huge Salsa bands perform ie Marc Anthony we decided that this would be a necessary destination that very weekend. Since we knew everyone else and their mom would be</description>

                    <title>Christmas and New Years The Colombian Way</title>
                    <description>Im beginning to think this organization wont last much longer. Manos Amigas relies on volunteers to be able to afford the lunches and whatever else that39s provided for all the kids. There have been problems with the website since the summer and the owner from what I can tell hasnt been doing much to do solve it. Apparently he has paid a lot of money to hire a guy that does the websi</description>

                    <description>A lot of events go on here for Christmas but the first one I will tell you about was the lunch we provided to the kids and crackheads of San Jose neighborhood aka the Danger Zone.Yamile really wanted to do something for all the crackheads for Christmas and she came up with providing them lunch the Friday before Christmas. Nicklas had just returned from a week in Cali to spend Christmas with us</description>

                    <title>Another holiday out of town filled with more crazy but extremely awesome adventures</title>
                    <description>On our first day back from Salento Tuesday we found out that the upcoming Thursday was a holiday surprise and it was the best time to go somewhere as we can easily get a quiet Friday and even the Monday off if we wanted. Nick and I looked at each other and immediately agreed to leave without so much as saying a word. We decided upon Manizales which we heard lots about and isnt located t</description>

                    <title>A Weekend In Salento</title>
                    <description>Salento is a quaint little town nestled amongst breathtaking mountainous views and is also part of the coffee triangle. Nicklas and I decided to check it out a few weekends ago and had to tear ourselves away from it.La Serrano the hostel we stayed at is located almost 2km outside of the city and it couldnt have been in a better location. The hostel is really a ranch house surrounded by a stu</description>

                    <description>Its time Ive introduce you to my amazing Colombian family. They are the family that lives at the volunteer housecenter and are the reason we can call this place home. Theyre also the other volunteers and employees that Ive come to spend a lot of time with. Berenice is the mother and is in charge of the place next door to me. She has two kids a 14 yearold son Wiliam whom I swear is </description>

                    <title>The Danger Zone</title>
                    <description>San Jose is an extremely poor neighborhood located in the suburbs of Ibague. Its filled with dirty crack addicts extremely poor people trashlined streets and tiny uncompleted shacks made mainly of brick with tin roofs. It also hosts one of the centers we may go volunteer at. Its location is not even a tenminute walk away from my home and it is here that an entire dark world lives and brea</description>
