About

I’m Sofía, a Colombian living in France. I love traveling and discovering new places, especially nature spots and places linked to ecotourism. I’m into slow, meaningful travel, where I can actually take my time and experience things instead of rushing through them. I also care about comfort, so I usually look for a balance between nature, simplicity, and feeling good while I travel.

Through this blog and my social media, I want to share personal tips, inspiring destinations, and help you discover places in a slightly different way.

To be honest, having a watch with route navigation has been a game changer for hiking.
