Hi, I'm Majo, I was born and raised in Villa de Leyva where I've been a guide for 7 years. I have always liked to meet people and places for this reason, I have traveled and lived in foreign countries like France and New Zealand, experiences that allowed me to know other points of view and language.
For 10 years we decided to rescue the historical memory and anecdotes of my town through oral storytelling. Today we use this knowledge to bring national and foreign tourists closer to the life of a villaleyvano.
