Today I'm sharing a new episode of Micuir on the Road with my #micuirfamily, from the wonderful Cartagena de Indias, a trip I wholeheartedly recommend.

DAY 1

Arrival at the hotel

I like to stay in boutique hotels that convey the history of the cities I visit. In Cartagena, I chose the Hotel Casa de Alba , a hotel located in a stunning colonial mansion that exudes a serene and tranquil luxury, very much in line with Micuir's values. The building is impressive and features a pool in a central courtyard with tropical vegetation that envelops you in a magical atmosphere. I spent some very pleasant moments with a book I carried in my large , two-tone cream and leather tote bag. The hotel service is very professional with exquisite attention.

City tour

Strolling through Cartagena transports you to another era, especially the historic center. To stay comfortable and cool, yet stylish, I wore the Sofia cotton dress and the incredibly comfortable Marieta sneakers, perfect for a walk through this beautiful city. I was captivated by the architecture, with its marvelous colonial houses and picturesque streets where the scent of tropical fruits and the sea breeze fill the air. I carried the small taupe Paola bag, which can be worn crossbody and fits everything you need.

Where to eat?

Strolling through Cartagena transports you to another era, especially the historic center. To be comfortable and cool, yet stylish, I wore the Sofia cotton dress and the beige Marieta sneakers, which are incredibly comfortable and perfect for a walk through this beautiful city.
For lunch, I recommend the Caribbean-style restaurant Candé, where we took their advice and tried something very special: coconut ceviche. Everything in Cartagena has a very tropical flavor. In my suitcase, I packed comfortable cotton clothes that would keep me cool while walking around. For lunch, I wore the Catalina dress, which is flowy and goes perfectly with the Antibes sandals, allowing me to continue exploring the city after this wonderful meal.

DAY 2

Stroll along the walls

One of the most famous sites is the city walls, which were built to prevent pirate attacks and took two centuries to construct. On this hot, humid day, I chose a dress and the Dinsum leather bag, which fits everything I need for this visit. I wore coral-colored Arcila sandals, which are very flattering and incredibly comfortable.

Where to eat?

Another place I recommend for dining is the Hotel Santa Clara, part of the Sofitel chain, which offers international cuisine heavily influenced by local flavors. The space is a colonial gem, perfect for lingering over a meal. This time, I paired the Dinsum Leather dress with the Antibes sandals, a versatile option in earth tones that's easy to coordinate.

DAY 3

Stroll through Getsemaní

In the picturesque, cobblestone streets of Getsemani, amidst whispers of ancient stories, you can experience the daily life of a city like Cartagena de Indias. I was greatly inspired by the colorful and voluminous traditional Colombian costumes and, above all, by the joy of the women in the neighborhood.
