How I'm walking into work tomorrow after spending a week of everyone (black/afro&non black Colombians) swooning over my complexion and telling me how beautiful I am. On a serious note Colombia is more than a vacation spot for me. It's a safe space, a refuge, and where I feel true love and pride in my skin. And no, not from swooners/admirers, but from walking the streets seeing faces like my own, sharing stories, and feeling the culture, influence, pride, and love for blackness. For my blackness, for our blackness. (Sad I had to find that outside of the country I calk home.)I've loved Colombia since my first visit, and I will return again, and again, until I finally move there lol. #afrolatinos #colombia #sanandres #black #micolor #morenita #travel #melanin #confidence #selflove #negrita #boricubana #afrolatinx #afrolatina (en Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqq7XUQHN1Y/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ob5pvzlcr96k
