My First Big Adventure 📖✨

Last December, Julián traveled to the Coffee Region with his parents and younger sister. He had visited other cities before, but this was his first trip to a coffee farm. They traveled by car from Medellín and stayed in a small hotel near Salento. On the second day, they went hiking in the Cocora Valley. Julián had never seen such tall palm trees before, so he took dozens of photos. Later, the family visited a coffee farm and learned how coffee is produced. The trip wasn't perfect: on the last morning, they got lost while looking for a restaurant. Fortunately, a local shop owner helped them. Julián says it has been one of his favorite family trips.
