RE: Eco-Lodges, Empanadas, Goats, and Tuk-Tuks - Another Rough Sketch from the Colombian Countryside
That's really great. If you find any photos they'd totally be worth scanning in! Along with what probably amount to some pretty amazing stories. :) I love old photos and I know a lot of others do as well. I've been kicking around the idea of digging some up for a post or two myself. It sounds like Colombia really was another world in those days. In March, I plan to return to Colombia, and I think I'll be in or very near Riohacha for at least part of the journey. I've never been.
I'll see if I can dig some up, could be fun! At the time it wasn't possible to fly to Riohacha so we had to take a bus that got stuck. A bottle of whiskey that someone had, arranged for a Bulldozer to pull the Bus free. I hear that the border regions with Venezuela are still a risky proposition so be careful. Used to be that Venezuela was relatively safe and Colombia wasn't; now it's the other way around, but borders remain troublesome.
