SOLO BACKPACKING COLOMBIA EPISODE 8 - GUATAPE

@tap836 4 жыл бұрын

Paragliding is so much fun. I learned to be a paraglider pilot last summer here in the USA. Flying in the clouds like that would make me super nervous. With no visibility, it would be easy to get turned around, and run into something (trees, hills, mountains, buildings, etc) that you just didn't see coming. We aren't supposed to fly in clouds here due to the added danger of not being able to see / be seen. There is other air traffic to worry about too. Looks like you were probably getting ridge-lift. Where the wind blowing up the hill keeps you aloft. Usually means you can't get much higher than the hill top, but if the conditions are right, you can just boat around for hours. You pilot must have gotten a bit too low, and the wind weakened enough he couldn't make it back to launch. So you got lucky and got an extended flight! Out here, Tandem flights for tourists usually only last 6-10 minutes, but there usually isn't much, if any lift potential since the tourist site gets thermals instead of ridge lift.

I have never considered Colombia at all, just did not have it on my radar. Thanks to you I started to be very interest in going there and have started learning Spanish! Thanks so much Christianne for your videos, daily inspirations and tips. I am very glad you made it home safely. (Oh and do you think you could make a video on learning how to do a cartwheel and handstand? I am always so envious when I see you doing it and now with a lot of time I would love to learn it finally) Lots of love, Carolin

Ah Carolin this has made my day 😍😍 I'm continuing to learn my Spanish at home as well! Deffo considering doing some handstand tutorials at some point 😊

Your vlogs are superb. It definitely looked worth it climbing all those stairs to the top of the rock, amazing view. And I really liked the footage while descending, especially when it was all clouds. You show it as it is, not editing those parts out. And the colours of all the houses were so vibrant! Was the crepe good?

Thanks Martin! I'd love to say the crepe was good but if I'm completely honest, it was highly underwhelming 😂 can't complain purchasing cheap food though!

Guatape is especially well known for its delicious trout dishes (it isnext to a lake, after all), and there is a host of other top restaurants popping up in the town as it becomes more well known among the traveller community.

love this so much, am curious do you book hostels ahead and how much do you recommend booking ahead as solo female travellor>

@ryano460 2 жыл бұрын

Just download the app and do it as you go. I don’t like to plan too much ahead. Your plans might change, you might travel somewhere else than planned, stay longer or shorter etc. I usually book 1 day in advance or even the day itself. And many times only 1 or 2 nights depending on a lot of things. That last thing might be a bit weird but the rest is said is a good thing I think! But you can of course plan it a little bit more ahead to prevent full hostels etc. But don’t plan everything way too much ahead is nicer in my opinion. But then again; it caused me Some messy situations as well with getting a room last minute. You usually can cancel a booking like 2 days before, without costs. So somewhat planning isn’t that bad. Haha
