Landing in Bogotá, Settling In

Mariana lands in Bogotá on the first day of August, the city's birthday month, and dives straight into the logistics of a new life: SIM cards, bank accounts, a flat in La Candelaria, and the art of adjusting to 2,600 metres. From the chaos of El Dorado to a bowl of ajiaco in Paloquemao, this is the starting point for a journey through the Eastern Cordillera. ☕ Enjoying the show?
