Singer Audition For Disney Cruise Line





My 3 weeks with Jule & Daniel, or why it is always better, a bit more money to have it ...

Our time together was in the truest sense of the word a constant ups and downs, both geographically and climatically considered (by's like to take ahead, the mood ranged mostly free ...). fluctuation at the same high level

It started so fresh in Bogota at just below 20 degrees and the clouds so close to 2574m. Admittedly, Bogota us with delight, s odass we received a rather quick course in the north and also have gained some height, next stop: Zipaquira. Here we went back and started the day down 200 meters and under the earth - to the salt cathedral. There was also plenty of salt next to Cathedral, which is the Passion of Jesus and many crosses in stone and salt.

The next stop was Villa de Leyva's but more in the Far North but also down somewhat, at 2100m. In addition to the hiking has robbed us here, especially the colonial architecture of the breath. Villa de Leyva has only 8,000 residents but less than 15 of them are German and I am afraid this is also the cause of a nocturnal interlude that somehow with selbsgebranntem Sauerkirschsch naps and a midnight Dose sauerkraut had to do and I am only dimly remember. However, put the sauerkraut is a welcome change to the otherwise rather monotonous Colombian cuisine: roast chicken with fries, fried chicken with rice and fried chicken with beans or soup, naaa, just chicken rice and beans?.






At our next station north in San Gil at 1110m we lacked clear the height, that's why we also go back in that same airy, namely for paragliding.











On a Tageshike in Barichara there was in addition to beautiful views in "El Condor Pasa" - style is also a lunch with ants in the sauce (eating habits, the Jules and Daniel can for their Asian time pass apparently with difficulty .. .).















Our goal in itself, the Caribbean coast, laid before the eyes, we have then a night bus in north caught.
Arrived in Taganga was now indeed the height-related breathing back light (namely, Taganga is Meeresspiegelhöhhe), but the hitzbedingte breathing difficult at constant 34 degrees in the shade. Clear
natural highlight was our day in Tayrona National Park with beautiful beaches and rain forest and jungle, which we have diligently durchtrekkt.














Back in Taganga we were due to the heat just too lazy to do for everything (including the photos ... ) and our time spent largely with Extreme Hammock Hänging. I've then sometimes my hand at underwater breathing tried (many thanks Daniel for the photos!) and so I escaped for a few hours of heat. Other perennial for the slowdown, our beloved giant fruit milk shakes, sooooo fresh papaya, pineapple, Lulo, strawberry, mango and banana (but usually with alternating order ...).

The heat of the Caribbean has gagged us for a week in the hammocks, but then we roused ourselves and are in the south. First, take a taxi to Santa Marta: always an experience with 3 Europeans on average are at least 10cm higher than the ordinary Colombians and try with its three large and three small backpacks to rise in a Colombian taxi, which in principle is no bigger than a Nissan Micra and the drivers, it categorically rejects the Boot-open ... Then we continued along the coast in the south, to Cartagena.














Cartagena, a beautiful old colonial fortress city, as well as hot Taganga - only without the cool sea breeze ... The old town and its colonial history, we have two days under her spell until we head towards the south went to Medellin. Schockgefrostet as usual, we have fallen from the night bus in Medellin. No one knows why but the long-distance coaches are always air-conditioned down to about 15 degrees so that all passengers seated with hats, blankets and jackets in the bus. You may expect the bus driver that the passengers fall into a reptilian coldness and therefore non-rigid while driving harass.

Medellin, known not only as a former drug and violence stronghold of Pablo Escobar, but also as the birthplace of Fernando Botero is a bustling city surrounded by sympathetic traumahften Bergen-built slopes. The nightlife in Medellin will be legendary. A small part of it could we discover the most part we remained hidden in a spectacular way due to a negative correlation to the title of my contribution. In addition, we are drawn more to nature than in the cities.













So ben ha we directly after two nights again adopted from 1494m altitude in Medellin, and are further down in the south, but again 2150m up in more detail in the Zona Cafeteria, traveled to Manizales. Manizales, a sympathetic student city in the middle of Colombia's coffee-growing region and my last e joint station with Jules and Daniel. Here we have in the jeep on a finca in the middle kidnap in coffee plantations. Here are not we just trudged through the plantation, but also have even sipped coffee filter for quality and above all, the gaaaaanz day fresh coffee. The rest of the day we took it to us in the mountains on the estate and in the pool and hammock go well. In the sunset we went all the way back in backpacker romance in the jeep through the coffee mountains on the gravel road to Manizales. For me, it went back the next day to Bogota, where the flight home waiting for me and Jules and Daniel have put the boots for Ecuador and Peru.

So long my friends, I'm so happy to travel with you. Even if one was missing, the time was just great. Fits continue on to you, enjoy your remaining time! I'll keep! Very soon in Berlin, Cologne, Paris or who knows where.

PS: This is the money 'n insider who has developed in the course of the journey to the running gag.
