A Glimpse Of Bogotá On The Eve Of Colombia's Peace Treaty With The FARC Rebel Army

Colombia just signed an historic peace deal with the FARC rebel army after 50 years of conflict. At the same time, Trump is elected President of the United States. Where one conflict ends, another is just burgeoning. During the International Art Fair of Bogota, ARTBO, artist and photographer Mattea Perrotta captured the city in this transitory stage, which proves that even the end of war can look nauseously like peace.  Perrotta describes the energy in poetic strokes: "Su Merced: Kaleidoscope of anxiety, hope fear rage, gravitational waves, a similar rhythm, home and abroad, but a different beat, guerrilla FARC, Donald Trump, at war for 52 years, at war for seven days, juemadre juemadre juemadre, bastard! A peace accord seeking to be met, whisper your longing, in persistence tranquillo." photographs by Mattea Perrotta

30 Days In The Amazonian Jungles, Snow Capped Peaks and Incan Villages of Peru

Holy Patte, who took us on a tour of Ecuador last week, present one of their most exciting journeys yet with an action packed, 30 day adventure through Peru. Just another long stop on their 4 month long excursion of South America, which has also taken them to Costa Rica and Colombia. On their exciting adventure through Peru, they first took a journey through the Amazon where they slept in wooden huts on stilts, eating piranhas for breakfast and holding wild sloths right from the trees. After trekking through the muggy jungles, it was off to the Huascaran National Park where the pair hiked through the freezing, snowy mountain peaks - camping all along the way. The it was off to a romantic motorbike excursion to the Incan capital of Peru, Cuzco and all the surrounding villages. Stay tuned until next week when we feature highlights from Holy Patte's journey through Bolivia.
