ABOUT THE DESIGNER

Hi. I'm Sammy Valencia! Designer from Shamballa Bags. I live in Colombia, in a beautiful city called Medellín, the city of flowers and eternal spring. My official language is Spanish. I don't speak English, French or German, but I try hard every day. Lover of reading, dogs, wine and traveling. Passionate, feminine, delicate and romantic. I love making bags, but so much, so much, that you could not imagine everything that happens in my body and in my soul, when I'm in my sewing room. (Sometimes it seems stress and other times it seems happiness). Fortunately, I have never stopped dreaming or acting. I love having my hands busy and my mind awake. I am convinced that there is a masterful formula for a long and happy life: Just do what you love.

I still have a lot to learn, I do it day by day. For now I am sharing what I know and it could be useful. I am close to help you if you run into any problems. Just fill out the contact form or write me on Facebook. I will reply to you as fast as I can!

My motto: "A Design must be pleasant, cheerful and beautiful. There are already a lot of boring things in life." – Auguste Renoir.
