Two weeks ago I was in email contact with my younger brother who has been traveling RTW for around 19 months now. He had received some bad news and I was fed up at the corporate grind stone in the ever suffocating big smoke. I hadn't seen him in almost 2 years and in three months, his epic journey would be over. We have always wanted to do some traveling together so, two hours later I asked him where he would be around 20th June. 'Colombia' he said. An hour after that I had booked my return ticket, not nearly for long enough but a ticket none the less.
I have always wanted to see South America and have found the history of Colombia particularly compelling. Although this will be a very brief glimpse of it's people and places I hope to whet my appetite for a more thorough sojourn in the not too distant future!
Since booking the tickets I have deliberately done little research. I aim to leave my trip in the hands of my very experienced guide and just see which way the wind blows us. I look forward to sharing a few escapades and photos on here upon return...

Sounds like fun!
Sounds like a blast. I wish I could convince my sister to travel with me!
