Having a background in botany and environmental services a lot of the content is plant oriented. I also love Colombia and hope to help people understand a country that has been through some very hard times and is now making extraordinary progress.

Great blog! I'm a Canadian ex-pat myself, 2+ years in Envigado. Writing to you for 2 reasons: One, it would be nice to have someone to speak English with here, second, I have 2 blogs: ocolombia.com & permatourist.com. Any link back would be appreciated! (I'll add yours, of course). Hope to hear from you! Cheers!
