Hi Betty,

This is Mat with one T, Say hi to everybody there{especially Alejandra and her family}.

I was adopted at a young age from FANA. I am now (almost) a 15 year old who lives in the states. I recently visited my home country COLOMBIA. I enjoyed all of the sites where my family and I went. We were able to visit Monserrate, which is a church in the mountains. I was also able to see the Salt Cathedral, which a mine in the Andes Mountains. It is also considered to be one of the "Wonders of the World". We went to a lot of different cities, and while I was in the cities and in Bogota, I was able to adapt to the people and surroundings. All in all, the trip to Colombia was well worth my time, and I'm sure that I will be returning within 4 years.
