Photo: Mud Vulcano, Cartagena/Colombia

In the north of Colombia, two hours away from Cartagena lays a Volcano. Not a regular one with lava, sulphur and volcanic rocks b ut one filled with mud. This mud is supposedly healthy. The volcano is a cone-shaped hill, no higher than fifty foot. On the foot of the hill there are small shops selling the healthy mud in Coca-Cola bottles.

Especially the first seconds after getting into the mud are quite an experience. It feels like your weightless. You sink into the mud up to my chest. Much deeper is not possible.
