I couldn’t tell if it was the color or Lorenzo’s words, our guide, that overwhelmed me when I saw them… those flowers, fused in the air with the yellow glow of the sun, seemed to whisper from another time. In the era of the wise —the guide told us— the knowledgeable used the alkaloid properties […]
. Cities, according to what I know, can be divided into those that stir unease and thrive in chaos; some are made of nothing but concrete, and in the end, are merely that. Others, however, are steeped in art and history—guardians of treasured memories and the very essence of their origins, and of the country […]
Las ciudades se dividen, según mis saberes, en aquellas que despiertan angustia y son caóticas por excelencia; las hay llenas de concreto, pero que al final de cuentas no son más que eso. También las hay llenas de arte e historia, las que guardan como grandes tesoros los recuerdos y argumentos de sus orígenes mismos […]
By Fredy Calderón In Colombia, there ought to be a city named “Fruit.” And if such a place existed, surely the perfect candidate would be Bogotá. That’s what our guide told us during a walking tour through the historic heart of the capital. It was then I learned that Bogotá reigns supreme when it comes […]

What a harmonious and imposing square; the bohemian city scent that permeates it calms me. We’re walking through Bogotá’s historic center and suddenly we find ourselves in the middle of a world of people: theater scenes on one side and live music on the other. For a moment, I felt like I was in Paris […]
Que plaza Más armónica e imponente; me calma el olor a ciudad bohemia que se respira en ella. Vamos a pie por el Centro histórico de Bogotá y de repente nos vemos en el medio de un mundo de gente; escenas de teatro por un lado y música en vivo en el otro; por un […]
De verdad no podía creer lo que estaba escuchando; que el siguiente plato de este que hasta ahora era el mejor food tour que había hecho en mi vida era un plátano bien maduro que se cortó en pedazos grandes, se fritó en aceite bien caliente y luego se aplastó; solo para luego ponerle en […]
We were in a gigantic field, I had no idea what this was like before arriving. Umbrellas twirled to the beat of the drums, seeming to signal a great battle was imminent. People began to raise everything they had: team scarves and city flags, twirling them in the air as they stood on the stadium […]
