Celele is one of the Places to Eat in Getsemani & Colombia.

Celele is Number 19 in the World’s Best Restaurants in Latin America. What more can we say about Celele? The best meal in Colombia! Celele has become the jewel in the crown of Cartagena’s culinary scene! The Caribbean Coast of Colombia, meeting indigenous people, discovering new flavors and ingredients, and sharing with the world on your plate at Celele. The food is all about history and culture to the Costeño people, which means the people of the coast of Colombia.

More Caribean places to eat in Getsemani can be Discovered at Sambal Bistro Caribeño.

We can’t eat every day at Celele even do we want to. However, another great addition to Getsemani is Sambal Bistro Caribeño, full of flavors and all about keeping the ingredients well balanced. Book a table or cross your fingers! This an Up and Coming spot for places to eat in Getsemani! It was a genuinely fantastic surprise for the stomach and the wallet.

Do you Want to Support the local community in Getsemani? Then you should try Mama Nilma as one of the places to eat in Getsemani.

Mama Nilma is all about food from home, which means local food and traditionally prepared, and the whole family is there to support the business. You will have Menú del día, for a very good price, which means soup as the starter, and for the main, you will have either fish or meat, then some fruit for dessert with a glass of juice, my favorite is Lulo. Lily is the woman that runs the place, and she is more than happy to serve you as well as her neighbors the food. Please support this place since it is one of the few places that people from the Getsemani neighborhood still organize.

Getsemaní, Calle Del Pozo #25-115.

If you happen to Miss a Burger but still want to support the local people from Getsemani, you should eat at La Cosa Nostra, the best burger place in Getsemani

La Cosa Nostra Smoked burgers, steaks, and drinks. In 2017, I connected with Julian at his street food vendor at Getsemani, and when I turned back in 2023, I suddenly got an urge to go into this backyard on the street. There was a feeling; little did I know it was the feeling of Julian’s food. He made himself a restaurant now! Best of all, prime meat burgers with Angus beef. What a treat, after all, the coconut rice! Don’t get me wrong, I love coconut rice, but I also love a good burger! This is the best one in Getsemani! Enjoy.

Sunset Place in Cartagena for Cocktails

I know I said five places to eat in Getsemani, but the last one is a place to drink in Cartagena, the rooftop terrace of Moviche hotel in the old town. Because sometimes you want a stunning view.

    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
