Spent a few days celebrating 2022 in #Salento, #Colombia, then drove through the #Andes via the brand new longest tunnels in Latin America to visit the Prado Reservoir - the tropical version of Lake #Winnipesaukee. @PROCOLOMBIACO @EncantoMovie #encanto
Explorando #LoMejorDeColombia nos encontramos lugares verdaderamente apasionantes, como Prado, Tolima. ¡Conoce la #RepresaDeHidroPrado! Un extenso lago artificial con atractivos turísticos naturales como la cascada del amor, la laguna encantada y la isla de Cuba. 🚤💛💙❤️
Lá cantidad de tiempo que he pasado en está plaza…

Thank you @QuestBridge for leveling the playing field in terms of access to Higher Ed. My amazing niece worked hard on her applications and grades (all A’s in AP classes in her 2nd language!) and matched with @BowdoinCollege! Tanto orgullo!

Did you know the majority of #flowers imported to the US are Colombian? Happy #Valentine’s Day, with love, probably from #Colombia! @PROCOLOMBIACO @asocolflores #valentinesday #DiaDeLosEnamorados
In a normal year, hundreds of Colombian flower farms sell about $1.5 billion worth of roses, carnations, orchids and other species to the U.S., Europe and Asia. The pandemic threatened to derail that last spring. trib.al/rORM67H

Colombia ranks as the second exporter of flowers, the first exporter of carnations and one of the countries with the greatest diversity of flowers in the world. Purchase #ColombianOrigin flowers 🇨🇴💐 during #ValentinesDay 🌹 and discover why our quality is well-known worldwide.

Thank you! I would be nowhere without the women whose footsteps I dance in. While reciting my poem, I wore a ring with a caged bird—a gift from @Oprah for the occasion , to symbolize Maya Angelou, a previous inaugural poet. Here’s to the women who have climbed my hills before.
I have never been prouder to see another young woman rise! Brava Brava, @TheAmandaGorman! Maya Angelou is cheering—and so am I.
Less than 24 hours to go and I keep thinking “we are almost there, everything will be okay” and then I remember how many things happened in each season of 24. @ProjectLincoln @RealKiefer #TrumpsLastDay
