  3. Hi Naty
    I am writing to tell you that I'm on holiday in Salamina Caldas, I am very happy because I am visiting my family and our friends, today we were on the river enjoying a delicious sancocho. The weather is very warm, but yesterday I was angry because the day was rainy and we were sleeping. Tomorrow we go for a bike ride to the farm of George, although we are sad because Angie can not go, but she said we would come to the night of the party and we are very excited.
    Take care and hope to see you soon.

  4. hi javier

    as I hope you've been very good these days as you know I've been out of town since I am on vacation and I had a great time in san andres the truth is a very nice beach shame that many people can not come because is very expensive but no matter.
    here the climate is very hot but the sea breeze adds a bit of comfort in this heat but I feel very well in spite of the heat, this makes me want to play sports like walking on the beach or swimming a lot is very nice

    javier're talking good and I almost run out of vacacones see you soon in Bogota

    bye

    San Andres Islas Is a beatiful island in this place the weather is sunny in the first day here I feel so relaxed an swiming in the morning and in the nigth I enjoy a very funny parranda vallenata in the beach.

  7. Dear parents
    I wanted first of all to tell you the strange but despite the distance I keep thinking about them . Since I came to the city of Bucaramanga have not stopped to amaze me , the weather here is very warm, not nearly cold and the nights go stargazing is one of the things I usually do.
    People here are very friendly , they greet you everywhere you go, driving in this city is very nice as there is no traffic jams and people let you wherever you go . Playing soccer in the street with the neighbors is most enjoyable , we run a lot and after a good game we usually go out for ice cream and a walk through the beautiful parks in this city , I understand why the city called pretty.
    Being in this city makes me feel great , I feel relaxed and stress well , it was what I wanted to feel for a long time .
    Taking passion fruit juice is most refreshing that is in this place , I want to stay living here in this city but for work and soon you 'll be there again but that if I come back next vacation to this wonderful city

  18. From: Maria Alejandra Gomez
    To: Brandon Evans

    Dear Brandon,
    I'm more than happy to write you the news about my vacations in Cano Cristales, and I know how much you want to know about them so I will start with the description of the place.
    It is a magic awesome place, just as you can see on the pictures on internet, the river is all colored, they say seven colors but to be honest with you I have never seen more colors in a natural place, it is just amazing as nothing else I have ever seen before, plus the weather is great, it is sunny most of the times with the typical little rainy moments of the countries in the Ecuadorian line, you must see how peaceful it is in here.
    When it is sunny I love to stay all day long out and walk close to the river, I can also hear the birds singing all around, It makes me remember a little bit of the birds in Kings Cannon but the biggest difference of the ones here and those in there is how many of them you can find, it is like a paradise on earth, different colors every where, different kinds of birds and animals and something new to discover every single day. The only thing is missing on the place is you :), I wish you could be here enjoying all the happiness with me.
    On the rainy moments, I stay at the beautiful cottage I have rent and read a book and drink a cup of tea, you know how I'm on the rainy times. But reading here bring me a intense feeling of happiness and calm, something you can not imagine, It is just incredible. I can't wait for you to arrive here and see all the things that I have to show you, I'm pretty sure you will love it and enjoy this as much as I do.
    I Hope you are doing great and exited about coming here in couple days.
    I will be waiting for you.

    Lots of love.
    Maria Alejandra Gomez Ariza

  19. Dear Grandma

    I tell you that arrives either hemlock , the flight was fine and it takes about 45 minutes. When I got off the plane immediately sentie an embarrassment he feels that clothing sticks to your body. The airport is not very big . Take a taxi directly to the hotel Tonchala which is located in the city center , the room I was given this very cute . In the afternoon I went out to walk around the historic sites of the city , I went to the general's house santander , the house with rosary villa , the Indian Motilon and evening outputs the famous boardwalk that truth is more beautiful than the pictures and there I had recommended as a site of fast food called Super Osais order a burger I could hardly her. On the third day I went to the border with Venezuela to a town called San Antonio del Tachira , things are quite economical . ate the famous chicha and corn bread stuffing, you buy a few details and process fronteriso permission to go to the city of San Cristobal San Bil comerial center which is the largest in Venezuela .

    Good granny I send you a big hug and learn more about this beautiful city I tell you .

    I miss you
