Goodbye Medellin.
I leave this city
feeling full and fulfilled. I have spent the last five weeks in this
beautiful city. It is a place filled with rich smells, domineering deep
blue mountains, vast sprawls of orange bricks, fashion, food, bars and
just about everything else that you could care to experience from this
amazing city. I came here without expectations but this city has
impressed me in so many ways. What stands out as always, is the people
that you meet and their thoughts and ideas that burn fiercely with
passion.
The experience at the Spanish school was amazing. I have met
some really cool freethinking people that have fuelled my passion for
travel and to inspired me to live my greatest purpose. Five weeks and 90
hours of learning at the Spanish school now complete. I was probably
their slowest learner but I have learned what I could at the pace that I
go with the memory that I have. I pack my bags and look around with
almost a sweet melancholy. I breathe the air of this place for the last
time in god knows how long as I set of too the city that is Bogota yet
again. I am about to start the true test as I begin my teacher training
on Monday to finally embark on the quest that has been in my heart for
so long. The true test of character begins. The learning Spanish
experience has been really challenging, frustrating as hell at times,
daunting, rewarding, excited and left me feeling calm and empty all at
once. I love how this experience has made me feel the positives and
negatives which is living! Just wanted to touch base with all my friends
back at home. Hope you guys are all well. Once I start teaching than
you can be proud of me, until then I am just a dreamer; just chasing the
dream.
