Paradises of Colombia

If anyone knows for sure where the paradises of Colombia are, because there are many, it is Andrés Hurtado. And this, as he says, he has learned step by step, walking.

The result of this summa cum laude , it is this book that introduces the reader-viewer to a very strong duality: traveling to these incredible and moving places or, in a respectful way, allowing Chiribiquete, for example, to continue shining without the devastating and abusive presence. of the man. The author contributes with some eco-philosophical texts that are almost as impressive as the photographs, because Hurtado is what could be called a “humanist of the 21st century”, who links us with that nature, with other travelers and with his own soul of poet.

In this book there are 15 paradises that, as the author says, “I approach excitedly. Five regions of the country: Cordilleras, Atlantic, Pacific, Eastern Plains and Amazon Rainforest. From each region I choose one or two representative landscapes and, from them, I expand on the surroundings... For all readers in love with the country, here are my loving and hard-working steps for the beautiful and sometimes tormented skin of Colombia."
