The first one, this one… this was in Colombia recently when I went on vacation with my family, we toured the coffee region. So this is in a town called “Filanda,” and it’s like a dream. I mean they drew inspiration from this town as well as another called Salento and from the Cocora Valley to make the movie ‘Encanto’. So here, you literally feel like you’re in the middle of ‘Encanto’ and it’s a place I recommend for anyone on planet Earth. There’s no place greener than Colombia, the coffee region, Medellin. I met people from all over the world, and they talk a lot about our country’s greenery.

This was a couple of months ago. At the King’s League final, which was at the Metropolian Civitas stadium in Madrid. What happened was that Manu called me, the day before the final, and he said, “Hey, I’m here in Madrid.” Béele just arrived too, and I’m performing at the King’s League final tomorrow. The same day we performed, I was heading to Ibiza for a vacation and he said, “Shall we perform ‘Vagabundo’ together? The song?” Of course, the song was a hit at that moment in Spain and many other countries. So we said, let’s do it. Manu is such a dear friend. We all went there and this is a photo before going on stage in front of a packed stadium.
