how it feels
This is what the last two months have felt like. This picture taken from atop the chivero last week is the best I can do at present moment. It isn´t that the chivero is moving all that fast, or that it is my first time on riding on the roof. But the expression on my face, a mixture of surprise and joy and holding on for dear life while knowing that at any moment our progress could be halted for a number of reasons, is the best metaphor I can offer to describe this life as it currently feels. More to come.

you are an amazing human being, I'm at a loss of words to describe the admiration that I feel for you, I came across your blog by pure coincidence and spent more than 3 hours reading it, I went to Colombia 3 yars ago, in fact i fell in love with it!!!but I never came across this horrible reality that is the war. It seemed to me as if people in Colombia "choose" not to see this reality, very sad.
Well I just want to thank you for inspiring me and giving me a new reason to think about Colombia to be my future destination and for showing me an opportunity to make a difference, even if it is a small one.
Yes AJ. YOU ARE ALL THAT AND A BAG OF CHIPS.
Miss you--BC is 3-0 and kicking ass!
