Adventures In Colombia - The Journey Continues - Back out on the road and south of the border. Mark is an intrepid traveler and this time he takes us to Colombia. Some of the best people I know are from Colombia and from what they tell me the country is great even if the politics aren't. Cartegena and Barranquilla are considered safer than most other cities in Colombia. Mark gives us an idea about what it's like to travel and explore Colombia and what a hard night with a bottle of Aguardiente is like...hmmm, have had a few of those lately myself.

Colombia - Up In The Mountains Above Cali - Have made many friends from Colombia during my time in Panama and invariably they tell me that the Colombian countryside is amazing. Most people own farms, but have trouble reaching them as the political situation in the countryside is too dangerous. The above article gives you a little bit of an idea what life in the countryside can be like when things are peaceful.

How To Disappear In Six Easy Lessons - Hiding Out In The Walled City Of Cartagena - For professional reasons I read all the books on 'disappearing,' how to become a fugitive, vanish, jump ship, go away, and not be found. Most of them are rubbish. One failing they all have in common is telling the 'disappeared' what location to go once they jump ship. Most of them mention Costa Rica. Disappearing in Costa Rica is like disappearing in Beverly Hills, and almost as expensive. No one disappears in Costa Rica, except perhaps the Costa Ricans that you invest money with. If I were seeking a city where I could live without being found it would be Havana, Cuba. Cartagena would be a second cousin, a slightly poorer choice, but it would certainly be on my list.

Into The Amazonian Badlands - Remote Amazon - Outlaw territory is where we were headed. After the 84th km the National Police and Marine patrols became more frequent and visible. The land begins to roll into the foothills of the Cordillera Azul that will itself rise into the Andes 300 km to the West. It was the week before Christmas and six years after the first time I had set eyes on this land. I fell in love with this hill country back then even though, unbeknownst to me, the place was off limits to US government personnel. The notable exceptions being the usual CIA operatives and Special Forces �advisors�.
