Colombia

When I arrived I was greeted by one of the workers because the host wasn't there, my stay was very peaceful, although not always was there attention and commitment from the host. I went with an interest in learning about fungiculture and there wasn't the opportunity because the day it was being prepared, the kitchen exploded with the substrates.
