¡To guajira! A Family Trip

I went with my family to Guajira- colombia four years ago in November 2004 when i was eighteen years old. It was a funny and challenging experience for me.

Giajira is located in the north of Colombia. There you find the Atlantic sea. We went to visit differents places of Guajira Department. We went to Rioacha, Manaures, El cabo de la Vela, Camarones… into the others places. The place that more liked me was El Cabo de la Vela because it is a romantic and beautiful place. There is a pretty blue sea, although sea is so cold.

Manaures was the most horrible place that I have never seen in my life. It is one of the most productive places in Colombia, there you can find a huge salt mine but is one of the most desserts and poor places in Guajira.

Moreover I ate several different delicious new plates for me like shrimps cocktail, sushi, “haivas” and cuttlefish. My prefer of those plates for me was “haivas”, it is a cooked crab.

In think Guajira is so different than others departments in Colombia, there are a traditional Indian culture. For example, people live in huts yet, his principal economic activities are fishing, texture industry and breeding goatees place.

To sump up Guajira is a beautiful place, there I experienced several things that I never had lived, and it was a unforgettable family trip because it was the first travel to Guajira that I took. I really recommended Guajira like a holiday place. It is a challenging experience.
