More <strong>traditional<\/strong> San Lorenzo, the village&#8217;s <strong>patron<\/strong>, is celebrated on August 10th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <strong>April<\/strong>, at the start of the heavy <strong>rains<\/strong>, you might witness a <strong>curious<\/strong> spectacle: the massive swarming of <em><strong>hormigas culonas<\/strong><\/em>.

in the city center. A <strong>van<\/strong> is waiting for me. On the way, it picks up two <strong>other<\/strong> young people and we are off to the <strong>paragliding site<\/strong>, an hour&#8217;s <strong>drive<\/strong> from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An <strong>instructor<\/strong> teaches us the <strong>safety<\/strong> rules and explains how the <strong>flight<\/strong> will go, nothing that seems too complicated \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>20 minutes later I&#8217;m at the <strong>takeoff<\/strong> site at the edge of the impressive Chicamocha canyon, <strong>harnessed<\/strong> with Laura, my instructor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We start <strong>running<\/strong> and throw ourselves into the <strong>void<\/strong>.

An <strong>extraordinary<\/strong> sensation of freedom and fragility at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For 25 minutes, at the mercy of the <strong>winds<\/strong> and Laura&#8217;s skill, I fly over the <strong>river<\/strong> that winds far below, <strong>birds<\/strong> fly alongside us. The landscape is <strong>breathtaking<\/strong>. Laura points out a village, a peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeling <strong>confident<\/strong>, she offers me a little shot of <strong>adrenaline<\/strong>. Playing with the sail, we start <strong>swaying<\/strong> from right to left, spinning &#8211; <strong>thrilling<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve lost track of time, we have to return to <strong>Earth<\/strong>.
