Yesterday was one of my last days in Poblado, and I enjoyed every bit of it. Even though I must admit that there can occasionally be frustrations and misunderstanding between the locals and the foreigners. Despite the tensions, I feel more than welcome here. We stayed around the mall until about...

Si hay una cosa que no voy a extrañar cuando salgo de Colombia, va a ser la mezcla horrible de comida. Lo he mencionado antes pero anoche fue lo peor de lo peor. Ayer Kevin me recomendo un restaurante chino, y bueno fui anoche para tratarlo. He visto a varios restaurantes chinos aqui, pero con...

As you can tell by the title, I had myself quite an exciting day today. The service group met at Alvadan´s house, which is a bit of a shady area, but I´ve never had any problems there. Orlando Canyola, a ministerial servant in the local congregation was put in charge of the service group. It was...

Despite the overall "awesomeness" of Colombia and its people, I´ve seen a bit of lack of unity within the congregations. For example, this morning, one of the young guys from the hall that ussually doesn´t go in service, went in service today. I wanted to make arrangements to preach with him, but...

Ayer habia una llovisna constante que facilmente causaba peresa. Aun asi sali a predicar a las 6 con Rodolfo Alvadan, y al poco tiempo nos dimos cuenta que valio la pena nuestros esfuersos. Tuvimos la oportunidad de hablar un buen rato con unas 5 personas, y hasta empesamos un estudio con uno de...

My new tract method continues to work for me. Yesterday, while I was waiting for Luisa Garces at the Metro Station so we could meet the group in Poblado, I witnessed at the entrance with my tract fan. A man that had already recieved a tract from me several days ago came up to me and gave me a pat...

Ayer fui para Mayorca al cine. Casi siempre me toca ir solo porque si espero hasta que alguien me acompaña nunca voy a poder ir. Lo que no me gusta del cine aqui es que los asientos son asignados. Bueno, tu mismo lo asignas a pagar, pero no entiendo porque lo hacen asi si todos los asientos son...

I´m proud to say that I can finally match my own clothes, and sometimes I feel like I´m the only guy here capable of that. Colombian guys seriously can´t match thier clothes. Luckily I´m only half colombian. But these people come out with horrible combos, like a orange shirt with a red tie, it´s...

El otro dia estuve mirando las fotos de Costa Rica que Amanda habia puesto en Instagram, y me dio una idea para el blog de hoy: plata. (Fotos añadidas a Photogallery Itagui). Antes de venir a Colombia, tenia pensado simplemente usar la tarjeta de credito como lo hago en Estados Unidos. Asi no...

Last night, after finishing yesterday´s post, I went off on a cheeseburger hunt. I knew I would never find one like the ones in Jardin but I knew there were decent ones out there. Weekends are the best for eating out, especially holiday weekends like this one. Like most big cities, some of...
