Carlos and his Uncle Fredy talk to us about the tradition of the "año viejo" in Colombia. Literally meaning "old year" (and also the name for the "New Year's Eve" holiday), an "año viejo" is symbolic doll that can represent a multitude of themes and especially the leaving behind of the sorrows, failures, and suffering of the year that is ending in order to kick off a better New Year.

Now, Carlos' Uncle Fredy will show us how to make an "año viejo" doll from old, no-longer-used clothing, which will ultimately be burned as part of a Colombian tradition that represents "out with the old, in with the new."

If you ever have the chance to visit Bogotá, Carlos has a very special suggestion for you! Let's accompany him to Andrés Carnes de Res, one of Colombia's most unique and well-known restaurants, and find out what makes it so special.
