About Manuel
When I was a kid, I used to look for hours at world maps and wonder what people were doing on the other side of the planet. Now I'm a freelance journalist based in Bogota, Colombia, and thanks to my job, I’ve also travelled to places like Peru, Bolivia, Mexico, Brazil and the Galápagos Islands. My favorite trips usually involve a good dose of hiking and interaction with different cultures. And I enjoy writing stories about people who are finding ways to preserve our planet.
