country. In his songs and in his life, he always had loved Colombia. He has
always be a patriot, he loves Santa Marta, the Sierra Nevada, the indigenous,
and all Colombia in general. He made his music for everyone not just for the
people from the Colombian coast. I have love from him to never forget my
origins, to be Colombian until dead. He shows to the world that the people of
this country aren't robbers. He never forgets Colombia when he talks, and he
teach me that first of all I'm Colombian. And I'll be of this country all my
life.

and after being famous, he has been the same person. He has never changed in
his way of being. He has always been the same sympathetic guy from Santa Marta.
And I have learned with his songs to show what I feel in every moment, and to
be myself in all the circumstances. Because, you have to be you, and not what
others say. To always be happy. This has been the most important thing that I
learned from Carlos.
