LOCOMBIA AND HUGOLANDIA, BITCHES!!!!
Sorry. I'm a little excited. I got really high last night, pressed "buy," and now I'm going from Bogota to Caracas in March!!!!! Hot. Wet. Cheap. Dangerous. Sexy. With fresh-squeezed orange juice. Anyway, I'm sure I'll be working (mainly staying in foncy five-star hotels, yay), which means this schedule is up for a change, but hypothetically:
Bogota-Piera-Medellin-Cartagena-Santa Marta-Mirabao-Merida-Caracas
Any suggestions? Will anyone be around? Should I make the effort to go to Angel Falls or Trinidad/Tobago or anything like that? I'm thinking about Ciudad Perdida, but that's six days in the woods and I'm kind of more interested in the urban jungle. But then, I always end up changing my return flight anyway. Hmmm. Alternately, if anyone needs to sublet an apartment in Atlanta during March, I've got you covered for, oh, $300 for the month for anyone who is also a facebook friend, or who I've met in person. I have a 7ft poster of Lenin and a library that would get me sent to a reeducation camp in any self-respecting police state that has ever existed. Make March magical next year. It might be our last year! Travel.
EDIT: I'm especially interested in hot springs! I know about the spas and stuff in Piera, and of course the mud volcano outside Cartagena (fucking love that place), but if you know of any wild or less well known hot springs that are fairly easy to visit, let me know - PM me if you don't want the info posted publicly.
