Registered on March 31, 2023

Hi, I'm Majo, I was born and raised in Villa de Leyva, a place where I've been a guide for about 5 years. I have always liked meeting people and places for this reason, I have traveled and lived in foreign countries such as France and New Zealand, experiences that allowed me to learn other points of view and language. For about 10 years, together with my husband, we decided to rescue the historical memory and anecdotes of my municipality through oral narration and acting. Today we use this knowledge to bring national and foreign tourists closer to the life of a Villaleyvano.
