Today finally feels like Autumn. Colder, darker, sleepier. But it's time for me to wake up. To take my first tentative steps into the cyber world of blogging. Who knows where my fingers will take me. They are my cyber-feet.
My hope is to go forward with this blog. To leave the comfort zone and explore themes that are alien to my closeted little Sydney world. But, before I do, I will take a step backward (again, with my fingers), and post something from the past. One thing at a time. I need to know how to post, before i can post something new. And so i will put an image, and a link - though both are bridges to Colombia. My wife, Natalia, and I run a little business selling traditional and contemporary arts and crafts from Colombia. Our little business supports fairtrade and aims to promote an awareness of Colombia beyond the infamy of cocaine and guerrilla groups. Our business is called Barachalá
My little friend in the photos is Marcelo. These are his feet, standing on the doorway to his little one-room home in MedellĂn. And so the digital journey begins. Good luck hands. Good luck mind. It's time to wake up!
