5 (Delicious) Soups You Should Try When You Travel To Colombia

Paul Fowler January 25, 2012

I recently found this link on 9gag about breakfasts from all around the world. While it might be slightly misinformed about a few things, it’s still fun to see some typical dishes from around the world, and it got me thinking about Colombia and its love of soup. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– When I […]

Decisions, Decisions Pt. 2: Santa Marta or Taganga

Paul Fowler January 24, 2012

Those with only a little time in Colombia can grapple with decisions on where to go for weeks. There’s so much on offer here that it seems a shame to go to some places while not to others but, alas, such is life with a full-time job. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Our series, ‘Decisions, […]

Decisions, decisions Pt. 1… Tayrona National Park or Cartagena?

Paul Fowler January 17, 2012

They say the wrong decision is better than no decision. It’s a mantra that can save you a great deal of time and effort if you apply it frequently. There are times, however, when you’ll have a decision to make and, frankly, there won’t be a wrong decision. What a delightful conundrum. –> Colombia Dolar […]

Top 5 Things I Miss About Colombia While I’m In the UK

Paul Fowler January 12, 2012

You probably don’t know, but I came home for Christmas this year, back to the UK. I’ve currently spent 3 weeks in and around London and have enjoyed myself a great deal. Still, even with how busy I’ve been I still find myself missing Colombia… –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Of course, I’ll be back […]

Our Ugly Ducklings: Our 5 Least Popular Posts in 2011

Paul Fowler January 10, 2012

We’ve spent so much time celebrating and feeling pretty happy with all our achievements last year so we thought it was about time we brought our feet firmly down to the ground and took a look at what we didn’t get right last year. –> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Don’t get me wrong, we love […]
