Bogota (ongoing)

After our time in Medellin and our search for employment, we decided to move to Bogota where the job prospects were more promising.  We secured jobs teaching English to businesses and community workers and settled in for life in Colombia.  Bogota is a big city with approximately 9 million people  with many cultural and music-based events going on around the place.  We don't get to take the camera out too much but this post shows just one of the cultural events we have participated in since we moved here - the Alimentarte Food Festival.

Celebrating Colombia's performance in the World Cup.


Alimentarte - A blend of flavours from around Colombia and the world.

A selection of Colombian food: Chorizo, Blood Sausage, Plantain, Creole Potatoes, Fried Chicken and Fried Meat and Arepas.

I was in my element with all the sweet goodies being offered!

Simon Bolivar Plaza, Central Bogota.

About Us

We are an Australian couple who love to travel as much as we can. Our first backpacking adventure began in 2007 when we travelled through Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and southern China for 3 months before settling in Beijing for 6 months to teach English. Beijing proved a great base to earn enough money to continue travelling as Cameron managed to get to South Korea and Japan for 2 months, before we both went to Canada at the end of 2008. We then worked and travelled in Canada and the US for about 8 months before heading home to finish university. After graduating university, Cameron as a secondary English and Social Science teacher and Cassie as a human services worker, we worked for two years before heading off for our next adventure. This time, we left Australia on Christmas day 2012 and travelled through Europe for 4 months before heading for Central America. We initially intended to travel in Central America for 3 months but ended up staying for eleven. This trip has seen us travel through over 20 countries in 12 months and we are not intending to stop just yet!
