Not far from Santa Marta, ´Parc Tayrona´ is famous for its glorious beaches. It´s also home to immense fauna and flauna and I saw lots of interesting delights during my two days here, including this colourful jellyfish. Its an hour and a half hike through the park to get to the first campsite and the beaches are not much further. 

We slept in hammocks again and drunk ´ron´on the beach, gazing up at the moon...bliss. 

Sacha Mama Coffee Farm, Salento - Colombia

23.01.13 

A group of us trekked for an hour and half to 'Sacha Mama's' coffee farm. The reserve is run by Pedro Grojales who is extremely Eco-friendly and lives completely self sufficiently. He is extremely passionate about what he does and explains the whole process of growing to brewing coffee, guiding you along the way around his coffee farm. Pedro's house, built entirely by hand stands in a peaceful setting, where you can see a variety of birds and butterflies. We had a great home cooked lunch with vegetables from the garden and of course, Pedro's organic coffee which you can also roast, bag and purchase yourself.
