As of November 24th, I've planted 8 trees native to Cundinamarca in an area called 'La Calera.' I'm reviewing the video I took to specifically share the names of the species planted, but among them are mainly 'Aliso (Alnus acuminata)', 'Cajeto (Citharexylum subflavescens)', 'Hayuelo (Dodonaea viscosa)', and a native shrub.
Special thanks to 'Fundación Humedales Bogotá' for making this possible through their program 'Planting of the month'.

I'm a sucker for flowers 🌺🌻🌼🌷

I was looking for excuses to write one of these. I found myself without muse until I finished an instagram post about my love for flowers and plants.

And this photo is one I absolutely loved. It doesn't matter where I am lately, I'll always take a camera and if a flower is nearby I'll stop what I'm doing a take a shot or two.

If you like this photo, take a look at my instagram. I'm trying to post more often.

"Even though my podcast is in my personal website/blog I do recommend that you don't take my blog posts seriously. They are my own opinion unless I'm doing research and even then a lot of my opinion will be salted over it."
