Dare to be you
The area around San Agustin is well known for the many historic sites around. They go back as early as 2000 BC, making them one of the oldest sites here in South America. The current theory states it are ancient burial sites, but no bones were ever found in the area.
According to me these spots were religious centres, were sacred initiations were performed.
It makes a long bus trip from Pereira to Popayán, where we stay in one of these nice white houses in the city centre. It’s already late when we arrive there, so much more as simply enjoying a good bed and the house is not for today…
In Pereira we just want to visit the thermas de Santa Rosa and then pick the bus to Popayan.
When we arrive in Pereira, we drop our luggage in the Kolibri Hostel and take a bus to Santa Rosa… We arrive there too late – since the bus stopped at nearly every door – and the last bus to the termas is gone. Disappointed we return to Pereira and decide to extend our stay here one day. The location feels really nice.
After these quiet days around Pijao, Carol joins us with Matteo for a couple of days to Salento and its surroundings. We meet them the next morning, to hop on the bus for the next adventure.
Een blij weerzien…na 6 jaar. We ontmoeten elkaar terug als volwassen vrouwen en mijn vriendin Carol is ondertussen een kersverse mama!!! We doen samen de was en de plas en kletsen de vervlogen jaren aan elkaar. De mannen laten we even terzijde…en daar geven ze niet veel om…
Voor diegenen die mijn verleden niet goed kennen: Ik ontmoette Carol in Peru tijdens mijn jaartje vrijwilligerswerk, ondertussen 10 jaar geleden.
