One of the teachers from school is super fit and Colombian and he leads these waterfall hikes in Envigado. I went and it was absolutely amazing. I have some pictures, but Meghan the other new teacher that went had a better camera so I'm just going to steal her pictures. This hike made me realize that I am so not prepared for outdoorsy activities here. I need to buy a backpack, a dry bag, hiking and water shoes. The hike was so amazing, in one mountain we experienced a jungle, dunes, desert, and grassy pastures. There were cows everywhere! Terrifying! They would be hiding in the shrubs and in the background and then just start running at you. I hope you enjoy the pictures. I have SO many bug bites. Didn't even realize I was getting bit until I got home.
I've found a few more cool spots for lunch/dinner and an awesome little coffee shop. I'm trying to get out and explore more, and hopefully soon we'll have more time off to go exploring outside of Poblado more. I have SO much on my to-do list.
This week at school will fly by, the students have MAP tests and have off on Friday, we have Prof. Dev. day followed by my very first Masters class starting on Saturday...these next few weeks will be crazy and then pretty soon October break will be here and then quarter 1 will be over and I can really start panicking about grades!
Life is good here, itches and all :)
much love
aimee
