Colombian Dancing

I met up with Rosa and a group of her friends to go clubbing and accidentally got sloshed on aguardiente. Aguardiente is a sugary, anise flavored liqueur that's extremely cheap and extremely Colombian. It's the most potent liqueur I've ever encountered (probably 55 proof).

I think it helped me learn how to dance like a Colombian though; I asked for lessons from the girls and apparently wasn't bad. Colombian dancing is actually a lot like frotteurism. You bend your knees a little and straddle your partner's thigh so your groin is right up in their business, then you sort of gyrate from the hips in a manner which all too closely resembles dry humping.
