About Colibri
Colibrí, which is pronounced ¨koli´bri¨ translates to hummingbird.
The hummingbird has multiple symbolism, including love, joy, and beauty. They are believed to be creatures that can open our hearts for healing. These birds are able to fly backwards, reminding us of the need to acknowledge our past, while focusing on moving forward.
Hummingbirds sip nectar, teaching us to cherish moments, live in the present, and value our passions. Their remarkable migrations inspire us to persist in pursuing our dreams, adopting their tenacity.
