In May 2012, I started working on a documentary film project entitled, A Journey to Colombia. Through the film, I want to give people insight into my search for understanding my identity, family history and Colombian heritage. The goal of the documentary is to educate the audience about the beauty of Colombia and the Colombian […]
“Ya me falta poco para terminar de construir mi casa”. Robinson voltea la cabeza sin perder el equilibrio para decírmelo, pedaleando delante mío sobre el sendero de tierra que nos va a llevar a la otra orilla. Yo por supuesto lo sigo con bastante menos gracia y mucho más esfuerzo que él, esquivando ramas, saltando […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Paul y Chris, ingleses ambos, han decidido dar a conocer algunas de las extrañas pero increíbles exóticas “exquisiteces” que los colombianos nos siguen recomendado para que las probemos.

Years ago, when I was working for a British Overland Tour Company, I was always bothered by one thing: every tour in South America seemed to skip my home country, Colombia. This bothered me quite a lot in fact, and was one of the reasons I first founded See Colombia Travel. We have since been […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– En cette époque du carnaval, je ne pouvais éviter cet article sur un événement grandiose: le fameux carnaval de Barranquilla, qui a lieu tous les ans et dure une semaine. Une semaine de fête, de musique et de déguisements: une semaine de folie! Ce carnaval est réputé dans le […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– Whilst those of us here at See Colombia Towers have been forced to spend the weekend getting some serious mileage out of our already fairly battered umbrellas, those with the foresight to flee the capital for the coast over the last few days will have been able to enjoy […]
–> Colombia Dolar (TRM) <– ¡Hola a todos! My name is Chris and I’m taking over as See Colombia’s new Editor. I was lucky enough to work as an intern (and general dogsbody to previous editor Paul) for See Colombia in 2012, and loved the experience so much that I’m coming back full-time – […]
