Juanes

I always travel with my guitar. I take it myself - with me in my hand. I don't like to send it by cargo because it's dangerous. There is no way I would do that.

I remember, the first time I came to the United States in 1996, I didn't speak a word of English at the beginning. I am very thankful for this country and the opportunity music has given me... My three kids were born here in Miami; they speak Spanish at home, but English with all their friends.

When I talk about God, I'm not necessarily talking about religion. To me, God is the energy and light that each of us carries.

I'm not more than a musician that enjoys what he does and a Colombian that dreams and fights for peace in his country.

I have great respect for Catholic traditions; my family is Catholic, and it's part of my life.
