Yeah, it took, honestly, I don't know what it was. You might be able to imagine, but something about Columbia really struck at my heartstrings. Something about the culture down there. So I went back to see my family in Adelaide. They were quite surprised I survived Columbia and then basically went straight back to South America to continue the adventure.
We went to Brazil. We went to Argentina. We went back to Colombia. And I was back in Colombia for a good five to six weeks. But this time instead of Cartagena, straight into Medellin. Okay.

I did. And this is actually a weird story. So I put up a post. I think I actually made quite an insensitive post. I was using the cocaine sunglasses to pour some powder, a prop onto Pablo's grave, like one for the fallen homies, you know, but a guy messaged me on Instagram and he's like, do you want to meet the sister?

You know, you get one of those DMs. But then he sent me a picture of a large quantity of a substance that made me assume that he was the real deal. So I ventured off down to meet him on a Saturday night in Columbia. And he showed me some pictures with the sister. And later that week, we went out for dinner.
