One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Within my country, I love going to know the region, hidden corners full of amazing landscapes. I lived in coastal cities, I love my country, I try to travel around my country all time, I am so proud that I am Colombian, my country is extremely beautiful! I have a lot of favorite places. the first is the Tayrona park in Santa Marta, it is incredible, it has the most beautiful beaches in the world, I loved spent my free time in this place, connecting with nature, recharging my energies by watching the most beautiful sunsets and snorkeling in its blue waters to see all the marine diversity. the other place is my farm in the coffee zone since I was a child I spend part of my vacations there, I always helped in the production of coffee, I helped cultivate, harvest, prune trees and take care of all the animals.

Outside the country, in 2019 I took the decision to fulfill my dream and travel around the world, so first I traveled to Mexico alone, in 2020, I went to Peru as a backpacker, visited a lot of cities, and, met foreign friends. it was the most important experience in my life. This year in January with my mom, we touristed in Panama, which was incredible, my mom enjoyed too much like a backpacker. then, I traveled to Europe, I went to Spain, Italy, Greece, Malta, and, France. I love knowing new cultures, new people, and different food. My last trip was to Turkey, I traveled alone, and was an absolutely good experience. I had the opportunity to travel to Istanbul and Cappadocia by bus and enjoyed the most beautiful landscape that I have seen. For me, travel is my medicine, I think that is the best way to find ourselves, to grow up like better people, I hope the opportunity to travel around the world, leave a mark in a lot of places, for me, animals are my life, and my passion is to care for them.
