Founder and Sales Director at The Colombian Trip, I am immensely proud to be part of an extraordinary team. Every day, I am inspired by their unwavering professionalism, love, and dedication to what they do. Born and raised in Bogotá—my cherished city and the capital of the country I so deeply adore: Colombia. My love affair with my homeland began with Gabriel García Márquez's masterpiece, "One Hundred Years of Solitude." Even now, I can vividly recall being an 8-year-old, engrossed in the novel, reading tirelessly. My mother would beckon me to eat, but I'd hurriedly finish just to return to the embrace of that monumental book. Through its pages, I felt a profound connection to places, stories, landscapes, and history, binding me ever closer to Colombia. Interestingly, my bachelor's degree is in International Relations. Even before my formal studies, I traversed the globe.

First, as a student in Russia, then on a pilgrimage in Italy, followed by travel adventures across Europe, Asia, and Africa, and, of course, discovering my country's treasures. At first, I struggled to find a bridge between my studies and my adored country that would inspire me completely. However, the captivating world of tourism opened a path for me. Now, my mission functions in two incredible ways: creating memorable experiences for my cherished travelers from all over the world and impacting positive lives of my Colombian people.
