Hosts
Juan
Hi there! I’m Juan, a 26-year-old from Colombia. My FOMO keeps me traveling, chasing everything the world has to offer. I love meeting new people and hearing their stories.
I’ve worked with Noma in over five countries, expanding my global perspective. I’m beyond excited to finally host a Noma Edition in Colombia—especially in December, one of the most magical times of the year for me. I can’t wait to show it to you!
Leo
Hi there, I'm Leo. I am so excited to show you around Cali, one of my favourite cities in the world having spent just over 2 months there last year. The atmosphere's electric and that's why I keep going back for more! Other than Salsa, Cali has a great food scene, one of my favourite things to do is spend the afternoon in the local market trying all sorts of fruits and local delicacies. The city has some amazing coffee shops with delicious coffee and cakes where you can work from and when you're not working, well, you'll be dancing or exploring!
