I am an early childhood teacher who started teaching English and Spanish since 2019, and I teach adults and children virtually all over the world. I love to travel and I have had the opportunity to live in Brazil for a year, which taught me that the best places in the city are only known by locals. Upon returning to my country and starting to work mainly with foreigners teaching Spanish, I discovered my taste for showing my city, teaching our history and rediscovering places every time I visit them with someone new. It is always interesting to hear the experiences of people from all over the world and what they think of the place where I was born and raised, especially when you can see how they fall in love with this beautiful city. My favorite color is purple but you will notice that I love trying different colors on my hair all the time. I also love music, live shows, children, animals and teaching! But one of my favorite things in the world is food, and "Paisa" gastronomy ("Paisa" is what we call a person from Medellin!). That's why I always try to include food in my tours! It will be my pleasure to guide you through this city, learn from our history and discover our present and future with you. Bachelor's degree in Childhood Education from University of Antioquia. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Medellin tour

A few decades ago Medellín sounded like tango, in every party, festival and bar you could hear that rhythm and now this musical genre has a strong connection to the roots of the city that celebrates it every year with its own festival. For me, taking people to see the best places that are connected to our history with tango means paying tribute to my grandfather, who taught me everything I know about it. The Gardeliana House survives through the years in a neighborhood that was known for its violence but that today is recognized for its resilience. The Versailles room preserves traditional flavors in a place where families go to shop and eat. The Malaga lounge is the perfect place to finish, a place for live shows and good drinks.
