Kirsten Aboard the Comfort #9: Juanes Concert

Juanes
Juanes is one of the best-selling Colombian musicians, having sold more than ten million albums, and won 17 Latin Grammys (more than any other artist). He is well-known for his humanitarian work, especially with aid for Colombian victims of anti-personnel mines. He was in our area visiting victims of the underground industry and he performed a benefit concert for the cause. In 2005, he was named by Time as one of the world's 100 most influential people. He's like a hero to Colombians.

Juanes welcomed our ship the other night by giving us a concert on the flight deck; he was thanking us for the work we are doing for his country. He sang reggae, blues, country, and spanish.
