Paul is an Englishman with a longstanding love of travel, tea and quality beer. His first trip was to Bosnia & Herzegovina and it was there, wading in some waterfalls near Mostar with just a litre of cheap beer and some bread in his belly, that he was bitten by the travel bug. After many more trips and a spell working in London, Paul relocated to Buenos Aires for some months before moving to Colombia. He's been here, knocking back 'guaro', for about 2 years now.

In reality, she’s probably eating an arepa and having some juice. Either way, it’s a decent way to start a Tuesday. So from all of […]
Bogotá has been called ‘The Athens of South America’ thanks to the wealth of museums and galleries in the city. But art doesn’t stop at the doors of the gallery; Bogotá is a city that lives and breathes art, as is evidenced by the sheer quantity of street art that decorates the city’s streets. –> […]
