Punter Gallinas, Colombia










18.02.13

We were up at 4.30AM after not much sleep from the hammock and bundled into the back of a 4x4 to make our way across the desert to ´Punter Gallinas´ the North most point in Colombia. A flat tyre at 6AM meant we could all get out and watch the sunrise. After 5 hours of horrendously bumpy, invisible roads, we passed thousands of cactus, wild goats and a few indigenous Wayuu people. The landscape is breathtaking and we spent the afternoon on 60ft sand dunes which you can run down into the ocean. Another night of star gazing in the ´hammaca´followed by another sunrise, 3 in a row isn't bad.
