el santuario

the most amazing place on earth where agua del nacimiento comes out of the mountain. we went to the very spring to drink the very best of all waters from the source. not only the water is unique, but the place itself is out of this world and thus the name my dad correctly and proudly calls it... el santuario!!

the big day

our wedding!! we went to villavicencio and our families and friends also came with us to celebrate our wedding. the farm was beautiful and my parents prepared an unforgettable event. thank you very much to them and the rest of my family (my new font family and the gonzalez and fruchtnis families) and to all the friends that shared with us and made of this day a really special one. because pictures are a lot better than words, we'd like to share with you some of them... we hope you enjoy them!!!

an amazing park with wild animals and beautiful lakes and sights. a place worth visiting for sure!! this is technically not a spa, but we had a great mud bath :-)

on the road to villavicencio

just a little crowded. 20 of us went to villavicencio in a van. on one of the most complicated roads of colombia... after this trip the crossing from jamaica was a breeze!! not quite :-) and it was actually rather fun!!

2600 meters closer to the stars

Bogota... (mejor conocida como la nevera!!) our families and some friends gathered here to continue towards villavicencio to celebrate the wedding. in bogota we went to andres (of course) and visited many other sights for a few days... we had a great time, but as I am reminded every time i come back to this city... its way too cold... brrrr....
