From the High Andes to the Amazon Basin:

And From the Axis of Coffee to the Bogotá Plateau

Join Alex and Val as they share his "trip to Colombia" and explore areas of the contry that bring them close to wonderful people, birds, monkeys, and many elements of a fantastic natural environment.

They trace a route down the Putumayo River from Ipiales in the High Andes to Puerto Asís in the Amazon Basin. From there, they continue to the "Axis of Coffee", centred around the town of Armenia, the heart of Colombia's coffee and cacao farming and processing region. 

They finish in Subachoque near Bogotá, then head to the headwaters of the Magdalena River. 

This promises to be a presentation that covers areas few of us have seen!
