I am a designer by trade and have always loved taking care of others. My family has always been my biggest inspiration. Being able to share that with others has opened my life to a bigger and better family. My love for detail, art and design have always given me a reason to create beautiful spaces. My life has always been about finding treasures that can come together in each area and make you feel good and warm. There is great joy in creating a home so cosy that nobody wants to leave. Helena Dávila & Luis Alejandro Restrepo What are some of your favourite places in Bogotá that people need to know about?If you are looking for a great meal Prudencia, and walking around Candelaria is a must. Visiting the Botero museum could be my favourite. Andres Carne de Res is always the place for a great drink, to have a dance and see Bogotá´s nightlife.What makes Bogotá such a great destination?Nowadays Bogotá has everything, a great gastronomical, everchanging scene and art, from urban graffiti to beautiful museums. The brick constructions and the trees are an impressive architectural blend. Bogotanos as much as all Colombians are very nice people that know how to have fun so don’t miss out some dancing.
