I got my bags packed on a roll heading out there and I'm ready to go looking real good

in my passport photo.

Amateur Traveler episode 725. Today the Amateur Traveler talks about a

festival and a finicular hikes and graffiti tours, cathedrals Coffee, as we go to Bogota, Colombia.

I know that I should be heading home, but maybe not, maybe not today.

Welcome to the amateur traveler. I'm your host Chris Christensen. Let's talk about

Bogota. I would like to welcome to the show Lauren Pelky from Wander Lulu.com

which has way more use in Lulu than you would expect

check the show notes for how to spell that.

Lauren welcome to the show notes for how to spell that. Lauren, welcome to the show.

Hi, Chris, thank you so much for having me. I'm really excited to be chatting with you today.

And we're chatting about Bogota Columbia. And Lauren, what is your connection to Bogota?

The age-old question.

I truthfully never had Columbia on my list,

wasn't really on my radar, but love brought me here.

My boyfriend moved here about five years ago, and so for the past five years I have been visiting

on and off and finally kind of made the move

down here this year.

And you picked a good year to move internationally?

I know, talk about crazy timing I finally five years in are right we're gonna do this

I'm gonna get the visa all of that and then I got here in February and then end of March the whole country shut down.

Excellent.
