At the Colombia Travel Blog our number one passion is our home country, Colombia. We look to promote the country and share with fellow travelers our experiences here, showing how it is to travel to Colombia and hopefully opening a few people’s eyes to the fact that Colombia isn’t the country Hollywood has told you it is.
Today, we’d like to raise our hats to those out there in the thick of things, really trying to help people. Bogota is making huge strides towards a bright future but, as with any big city, there are those that remain vulnerable. ‘Saliendo Adelate’ is a video by Ben Cheetham that follows a man named José, who has been on the streets since the age of 6. We see his progress in a government funded institution, and see how the school tries to offer people like José a new way to visualize the world.
Thanks to Ben Cheetham for allowing us to share his video. Please help Ben by passing it on and sharing it among your own friends.
