Camping


This weekend we went camping with our office team. I wasn't sure I would go first, I guess I have grown more comfortable over the years.

But then I thought what the heck. We took a couple tents and made a camp at the side of a river close to San Felix, up in the mountain West of Medellin. Awesome place. Sometimes it seems God just designed places to be enjoyed by humans.

Almost no mosquitos and a steady 22 degrees Celcius at day. We even jumped into the beautiful little creek that made a curve around our place. We saw some beatiful yellow birds that could have been taken out of a wildlife magazine. The night was colder, most of us were freezing. That could easily be solved with better gear and clothes though. I got a taste for camping again and thought I'd buy a good sleeping bag and a mattress as soon as I can. I have camped many times in Sweden and in the US, but this was the first time in South America.

I realized how refreshing nature is and how good it is to get a break.

The river looked like it containted gold.
