HOW THIS STORY BEGINS

María Amalia Robbin was born in Medellín, Colombia. Her mother was an American doctor and her father was a Colombian agricultural businessman, therefore, she grew up speaking English and Spanish equally in her home. She graduated from an American school in Medellín and then obtained her diploma in Agribusiness.

For the past 20 years she has been working as an international food broker selling all kinds of foods in different markets around the world. Writing had never crossed her mind until a few years ago when she started doing research on her paternal side of the family and realized that she needed to tell all of those stories, which were too good not to tell!! She had always loved writing and had been good at it, but had never considered it as something she would do on a daily basis. She often laughs and tells a story about an English Professor she had in college who told her she should consider becoming a writer.

She was shocked since writing was not part of her horizon at that time of her life and she thought her teacher was absolutely crazy!  Life is full of surprises and now her first book is out:  “Planting The Seeds” which is part of the Series 1888 La Amalia A Coffee Novel by María Amalia Robbin which will be available soon.
