CONNECTOR Travel

Don’t just travel, connect.

First stop: Colombia

In 2025 I went to Colombia with a microphone and a few introductions. One introduction led to a studio visit, a studio visit led to a podcast season, and those conversations became an exhibition of 16 Colombian jewelry artists.

Now I’m bringing a small group with me.

Colombia, summer 2027. A small-group trip hosted by me, built around the artists, jewelers and craft communities I’ve come to know. Expect studio visits, time with makers at their benches, shared meals, markets, and conversations you couldn’t arrange on your own.

This trip is designed to be accessible. We’ll stay in comfortable, locally run places rather than luxury hotels, so more of what you spend goes to the people and communities we visit.

People inside a jewelry workshop or store, with glass display cases filled with gold jewelry, tools, artwork, and ceiling lights.

Six spots will open, and my mailing list hears first.

This trip is for you if…

  • You make things, or love the people who do

  • You’d rather sit in an artist’s studio than a tour bus

  • You’re curious how artists in other places build their lives and careers

  • You value real connection over luxury

  • You’re open to new places, new people and a little Spanish
