get IN the map
We just got back fom a retreat with the Bogotà team. We stayed at a friend´s farm outside of Medellìn. The view from the 100 year old house was out of control. I felt like I was in a topographical map.

About Me
- Name: AJ
- Location: San José de Apartadó, Antioquia, Colombia
My blog is small and humble so you don't confuse it with mountains. I headed down old South America way in November '06 to begin my adventure as an International Human Rights Accompanier in the Peace Community of San Jose de Apartadó. Why am I doing this? What is this that I am doing? What is a peace community? Will I be able to survive a year with no refrigeration and thus no cheese? This blog will attempt to answer these important questions and more.
