How A Colombian Woman Is Making An Impact By Sharing Her Stories
It all starts with one person who starts sharing
We all have our stories, and many have trauma and tragedy as an underlying theme.
Sometimes when I read stories of those around me, I sit for a few minutes after reading and think.
How did they survive?
I am not sure if I could have gone through that and still be standing today.
I live in Colombia, and I love this country, but it is not without its pain, especially in the women, and so many do not have a voice for their pain.
If you have ever been to Colombia, you will notice how the people here are what makes you want to come back. When I traveled throughout South America, it was a running theme that almost every tourist, traveler vacationer would say Colombia is their favorite country and mine.
Yet when you tell Colombian’s this, they are a bit shocked. Also, if you ask a Colombian if you should visit their country, they will say to you, yes, but it’s dangerous.
