Easterbreak in the Carribbean - Cartagena & Barú

Two weeks of pure relax, it was needed !
The first week we spent in Cartagena, going to the beach every afternoon and spending time with Marcela:

Enjoying the waves in Boca Grande

One night we went to have dinner in one of the restaurants in the historical center of Cartagena. It was amazing with salmon, langostina and delicious white wine:

Decoration with some kind of meatappetizer on it. Gustavo the only one eating meat though.





The sunset in the beach of Boca Grande was always very beautiful, and since we went to the beach every afternoon we expirienced quite a few:

Crazy people

Happy face


Marcela left for Bogotá and we went to Barú, a small island outside of Cartagena. It was amazing! We stayed for free in the camping site, met a lot of great people and lots of relax. It is what we call a "bounty-island" in my family with extremely clear water and white sand. What more can you ask for?





Tortas fritas, ñam ñam

the afternoon was the only time we could juggle, it was way too hot during the day

Our "house" for the week we were in Barú


Crazy Barú family, I'll miss you very much. We are waiting for you here in Popayán ;)


we left in a boat and could see the guess praticing and waving goodbye to us

We left for Cartagena with Nicole and Cristóbal from Chile.

We had 2 days left in Cartagena before leaving for Popayán and we spent it with great company:

Castillo San Felipe

Crtistóbal and Gustavo




Nicole, Cristóbal and Gustavo





Barú family gathered in Cartagena, drinking beer before we had to leave the day after.


Now I am back in Popayán and the cruel reality of the every day life and study, but somehow it is nice to be back in house.
