7 Favorite Latino Songs for the Weekend

February 3, 2017

In two days I’m going to Colombia by this let’s get the weekend started with something more than the normal top list of Western Music. Get yourself ready for Latin America. Don’t you just love it when you are traveling and realize you never listen to this music or song before? For me one of the best things about traveling is discovering the people and their life. Music is a big part of people’s life.

 

Bomba Estéreo – Soy Yo (Official Video) (screengrab)

Lately I have listened to a great time of Latin Music. Why? Because, I love that when Learning a new language, you can listen to anything that speaks to you. I love listening to the lyrics even do many of them are a great part about love, life, sex and more girls.

I love it when I suddenly understand half of the song. Or actually suddenly understand the meaning of it.

Want to listen to my Latino Playlist? Playlist 150 songs with LATINO

 

1. Hasta el Amanecer – Nicky Jam

In the disco of Alicante with my Tinder date. I listen to this song for the first time. Which is funny, because it is about a boy who don’t know the name to the girl, but it is not so important. The important thing is what the girl would like to do with the boy. Where is the girl going? This is the question! The boy want to be with the girl for sunrise.

 

 

 

2. Tranquila – J Balvin

Easier said than done? Even in Galápagos Island in Ecuador. They have well function DISCO. My new Galápagos friends telling me to: Tranquila, relax? Have you seen my hips or not? Of course making everything worst when they are assisting me on making the movement correctly with the hips. My first lesson in something Latino dance.

 

 

 

3. Travesuras REMIX – Nicky Jam

On my first dive in Galápagos!! This is what comes out from the boats speaker. Like there is so much expression. I’m glad that it is in Spanish, because that was a lot of affection early in the morning.

 

 

4. Sorry Latino REMIX  – Justin Bieber

When you think: Finally a song I know and I can actually sing along with the song and then all the sudden it is in spanish. Why? Because you are in Latin America!! Claro, Que si.

 

 

 

5. Me Voy Enamorando REMIX – Chino & Nacho

Somewhere it was one my Spotify playlist. I love it. It is about falling in love.

 

 

 

6. Otra Vez – Zion & Lennox (fest. J. Balvin)

Exactly one more time! I’m going to visit Latin America. This is why I like this song, because I’m going to back to a continent I love. It is exactly in Cartagena the adventure starts – Precisamente en Cartagena!

 

 

7. Soy Yo – Bomba Estéreo

This is a new cool band to follow from Colombia! Soy Yo is all about having confidence about being you. If someone tell you other ways, just tell I am who I am – Soy Yo!!

 

 

 

Do you have any favorite Latino or Travel Song Memory?

    A Norwegian Travel Voice & Trying to Impact the World by Nudging People to Choose More Sustainable Travel.

    I’m shaped by nature. I grew up at the edge of th I’m shaped by nature.

I grew up at the edge of the Stadt peninsula — where the ocean doesn’t negotiate and the wind decides your plans. You learn early to read the sky. To sense the shift before the squall rolls in. To move before the door is pushed open.

The weather isn’t small talk at the coast.
It’s strategy.
It’s timing.
It’s survival.

And the women knew it best.

While the men were at sea, coastal women held everything together — land, livestock, homes, children, community. They didn’t call it resilience. They simply lived it.

They understood something very important that we need to remember well. 

You don’t dominate nature.
You collaborate with it.

Today I live in the Lofoten Islands, again surrounded by strong coastal women. Different generation. Same backbone.

To adapt when conditions shift.
To build with the landscape, not against it.
To know when to move — and when to stand firm.

To me, that is a coastal inheritance. 

The coast teaches you self-efficacy. Patience. Awareness. Respect.

It shapes women who know that sustainability isn’t about control — it’s about relationship.

And that’s the spirit I carry into my work, my travels, and the future I’m building.

Thank you @dino.serrao for capturing my coastal spirit in this portrait.
    2025 was rich in good memories, wonderful times wi 2025 was rich in good memories, wonderful times with family and friends! It went so fast! Many highlights this year! And many great hikes even in Lofoten and Sunnmøre! 

2025, I have used less time on my phone more flight mode, more with just being. It will continue onward for 2026. I’m still traveling and doing many mini adventures. Mostly being with loved ones. 

In April we were in Cuba, which always disconnect but reconnect you much better with what matters and the importance of being grateful and appreciating what you have in Life. When we travel, how can we travel well, how do we show up at a destination. 

My last international travel this year was Lanzarote, famous for its landscape and architecture. Best of all traveling with my sister. We used public buses, eat at different local places and guided tour to the national park. What an island! 

I think one word that has been important this year for me is mindful. Be aware, be curious, ask open questions, reflect more before speaking and listen. 

Being in nature is the best gift for human nature. We must visit more often. We must focus on our sleep quality. 

I think 2025 have been a year of flowing and protecting my energy on what sparks joy to me. The most limited resource we have is time. How can we live the most happy with the time we have. How can we use our time and energy well. 

2025 I’m very grateful for the year it was a blessing filled with love laughters, friendship and some important life reflections and some new changes. 

2026, welcome let’s embrace and see where the wind takes us this year! 

Wishing you all the very best new year filled with abundance, hope and peace. May the year be as good as you want it to be! Or even better as magical as you want ✨🤩
    October disappeared in the blink of an eye! 😃 The October disappeared in the blink of an eye! 😃 The start of the month was breathtaking in Lofoten. We welcomed German travel experts for a MEGAFAM trip in the Lofoten Islands and had a blast connecting with new faces and industry colleagues. Truly amazing!!🤩 #lofoten #lofotenislands #megafam #lofoteninfo #visitnorway
    Greece is always a good plan! This time we went is Greece is always a good plan! This time we went island jumping to Skiathos and Skopelos. You know the Mamma Mia Islands 🌞 Also Athens, but next post. I think Skopelos has the clearest water I have seen in Europe. So stunning so pure, wow! So green the Island. Could have been away longer as always, but now living slow cabin life before hitting back North. #islandescape #greece #visitgreece #skiathos #skopelos #islandsofadventure
