Back! And en route to Colombia

Hello, friends and family. To all those who occasionally check this blog and see what I've been up to. I knew I wouldn't keep this updated unless I was traveling, which I really haven't been since I've returned to America. I've made some trips around the US for work, to Iowa, Missouri, Texas, Arizona, Florida, and Boston, and I enjoyed it tremendously. Now, suddenly, the internship has ended and I find myself with some free time before I start graduate school in August. Since it's been so long since I've been abroad, or at least it seems like it, I'm headed to Colombia in just a few short weeks with a friend I met while traveling a few years ago. We'll spend two weeks backpacking through Medellin, Santa Marta, and Bogota. I'm not quite sure what to expect, but everyone who has been to this amazing country before has fallen head over heels for the culture and people. There's no greater feeling than discovering a new place. I'm so excited to experience it once again!
