A look at Bogotá

I’ve lived in Bogotá all my life and I know that this city is very dangerous, because there is a lot of insecurity. You must be careful all the time, especially in the nights, when there are no people around. By the way this city is amazing, you can find a lot of great things and wonderful places, many cultures and stuff. However, there are some things that I don’t like, such as robbery and vandalism. These things are quite common, that’s the reason you must be careful all the time. If you’re going to the center of city or the south, when the insecurity is everywhere, you must see who’s behind you because you don’t know when you’re going to be robbed. This is what experts say on the topic of the robbery in Bogota: “We feel unprotected and today there is no clear speech in Bogota that manages to conquer the fear of the people - who can be royal(real) or unreal - to being a victim of a robbery. The numbers (figures) are not enough and the Mayoralty must say to us which sound these policies across campaigns that the people should know ", annotated Jairo liberos Expert in safety, teacher of criminology of the university Externado, in a article of El Tiempo, of this year.

The robbers here make vandalism into an art, because for example, you’re waling around and suddenly in a few seconds you don’t have your cell phone, or just you don’t have your money. These are the things I don’t like most of this city. By the way, another thing I really hate is the traffic, because always in the mornings the traffic is bad and you can easily get stuck. When I take the bus, it always comes late and full, and in many times I’ve had to enter into the bus by the back door. Also, if you’re going in Trasmilenio you’ve got to be careful, and always watch out, because there are many people and those busses are full every time, so you can easily lose your things. So there are two things I loath of this city, they are, the traffic and the insecurity.

Dreams: My strange dream, ¿What it meaning?

'The dream was to black and white; I was in a lonely place and it rained; were suddenly dropped me two rats and a cat, but I managed to ward off them to kicking; next returned to walk along a street was still raining, I keeped dry in an old building and desolate, it was night and my dad was parked a car in that same building. Behind of me appeared rats and returned to ward off them but by more that it tried to them stayed there.''


To dream of rats: It means that we fear the future that we do not like the current situation we are living and need a run of luck especially for our labor or economic aspect.
Dreaming of Cats: Cats have feminine connotations, always the dream that drives away the cat will be a good omen and a sign of triumph.
To dream of an old building: hints own carelessness, neglect of his affairs, debts or personal commitments.
To dream of rain: dream you see and hear about the rain and managed to escape without getting wet, it means you will have successful projects and managed to develop quickly.
To dream of a car: If the dream is a car, talks that will change many things in our lives. In any case, if you're not who leads, then we can not talk about taking control of that change.
To dream of our father: may mean that they approach problems whose solution requires parental advice.

EXTREM SPORT


The psicobloc is simply to climb without rope on the sea. It is climbed to a height of between 10 and 20 meters and always in walls that overcome the 90 º of inclination, in order that the falls are directly on the water without be striking by the wall.; having practiced it is the purest way of climbing

Though since the first Majorcan climbers appeared, at the beginning of the seventies, always it was climbed on the sea during the summer months and also in places as Them Calanques (France), in The United States, etc, it was an activity that was practised of sporadic form. It he was not until 1978 in Majorca, when they started opening routes of a constant and systematic way, giving place to the formation of this new sports modality

 

This modality can realize anyone that has basic notions of climbing Providing that a minimum of force is had, because the walls are collapsed always and has to be able to swim, The risks What they traverse are: If the fall is over-excited and from certain height, from 15 meters, you can make to you hurt enough .. they have, had many lesions since for example s there were two serious accidents of vertebral column, between foreign climbers..

  • If not at all sufficiently well or you get in winter, you can suffocate also. This happened to a British climber a few years ago in I Carry Christ (Majorca)

 

The better of this extreme sport is The sensation of freedom, because it is the only modality of climbing where you climb many meters, without traversing too much danger without taking any type of material, harness, mosquetones, ropes, etc …

 

Councils to practise the psicobloc:

 It is necessary to have patience initially since it he, is afraid, without be pressing for doing the first day the highest routes. It is necessary to go falling down every time from more height. It is not necessary to go alone, it is necessary to think that the falls form a part of the psicobloc, is the only modality of climbing where falling down also is partly to triumph … if it he, is from certain height and you do not damage to yourself


Places to practise the psicobloc:

 Any of the zones of Majorca, each one has a different attraction. But if it he, is the best to begin they are A Cove Ferrera and I carry Colom.

My favorite restaurant is Crepees and Waffles...!




My favorite restaurant is Crepees and Waffles...!


fghofghdfjk



In the city we can find different kinds of restaurants, expensive cheap, nice, good service but for me the best restaurant in the city and the country is crepes and waffles, is located in all shopping in the city and places exclusive for example in the scepter of the cities and in Bogota for example in the T zone, the tasteless of the food is very delicious you can find different desserts: waffles, creeps, pitas, and much more. The decoration is wonderful is very organized, sophisticated and modern. The attention for waiters is good bat in occasions this very full and the service is bad, is not expensive bat no cheap the cost is average, In the place go all kinds of people students, employers, couples, families because is very comfortable and the environment is very nice and quiet.



I recommend, because you can go with your girlfriend, your family or friends is comfortable not expensive and the service is usually excellent with ECEPTION but in general is a good place to spend some quality time in either the morning or late evening.



I also recommend you going to specials days on birthdays or important dates that you give away free food and gifts and if you're lucky you can get the free account.
