We have musicians; see Juanes, a Grammy winner, one of the world’s top sellers. Shakira, the girl entirely countries have fallen in love with her songs and her hips moves. Carlos Vives, the only performer who has come up with the vallenato and rock mix. People in sports. See Juan Pablo Montoya, our F1 driver. See Camilo Villegas, such impeccable swing, such impeccable attire. We have writers, such as Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Nobel Prize winner. We have actors. These are just a tiny fraction of all talented Colombians. Because there are many more, we have the mob and all of them share one thing: passion, passion for life, for family, for nature and passion for peace. Perhaps now you will think definitely about my country because what I have just showed you reflect who we really are. Colombia is all about Colombians that’s why Colombia is passion.
