So most of today was spent travelling. First of all a bus from Salento to Pereira which the hostel said left at 11am but it didn’t actually leave until 1130am, so I spent about 40 minutes at the bus terminal playing with the dogs and admiring the local sculpture.

At Periera I met another English couple and we shared a taxi to the airport. It’s a tiny little airport but I grabbed some lunch and sat and read my book.

The flight to Bogota was delayed by about an hour. I travelled business class as when I booked the tickets it was the same price as economy – just wish the flight itself had been longer than 40 minutes!

Had to wait ages for the bags to come through but after that it was pretty straightforward getting to the hostel in a taxi.

The hostel seems really nice and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

I’m in a bit of a dodgy area of town appatently so I’m staying in tonight and I’ll go exploring tomorrow.
