INSPIRED IN SANTA MARTA

 

Santa Marta, Colombia - January 2025

By Tyler Loring

Colombia is a place you visit once and will forever want to return to. The culture is like no other, with beautiful people, stunning landscapes, and a warmth that is incredibly inviting. One place where I have felt most connected is Santa Marta, in the northernmost part of the country. Here, the mountains meet the ocean, and the warm Caribbean air kisses your face no matter the time of year. 

The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta is an isolated mountain range that runs through the northern part of the country and holds a very special place in my heart. The indigenous people protect and nurture the land there, and as an explorer, you can meet and interact with them. They are wise and know the land like no other. 

I hope any explorer out there has the chance to roam free in Colombia and see how unique and special it is. -Tyler Loring
