WHEN I WENT TO CUCUTA - COLOMBIA

in #colombia7 years ago (edited)

3 days ago I went to Cucuta border with San Antonio del Tachira - Venezuela, in search of medicines, which in my country are not found; This is my second trip to the sister land, the first thing I should comment on the impact that one lives in today is the change that produces one country in the process of development and another that is in expectations of not that ...

From this side of the border everything is chaos, a queue, a stress and from the other side, peace a tranquility, a fluency, I do not deny my country, but now the neighboring country is much better, and that is a Fact that you can not hide, there is food, medicines, security and most impressive is that without being an oil country they have all their streets well paved.

People respect the traffic signals, which however insignificant it is, affects me at a visual level, one says "what a good series that everything was like this in my country", to see clean streets, a nice view and zero congestion feels good Even for a few moments.

I run into several Venezuelans who are leaving the country for fear of what may happen and that makes them flee only with their birth certificate and their ID, hoping for a better future and for things of faith do not deport them , I asked a girl "you're leaving without papers" and she says "Yes, I'm going alone with the cedula I can not stand this situation", the girl leaves her two children with her father in their country of birth.

It only lasted 5 hours in Colombia, when I found the medication I came without being able to go even to a shopping center, this time I can not eat a few buñelos that made me want to try them because on my previous trip if I could enjoy them, at Time to re-enter my country I felt a little discouraged, but I know that these things have to be done for the moment.

I think I will have to go in a few weeks to look for the other part of the treatment, but I will organize a little better to enjoy a little more.
