Abstract
This chapter introduces readers to the heterogeneity of Colombian migration, focusing on the experiences of labour migrants, students and professional flows and family migration. The author presents the stories of migrants arriving in the UK, Spain and Belgium from the 1970s up until our days. As well as representing a variety of experiences, differences between men and women based on social background are explored. Migrant destinations are chosen based on networks, information available and conditions of entry and settlement, with many migrants experiencing more than one or multiple migrations before their final destination. These mobilities have helped diversify personal, social and economic transnational links, maintained not only with the home country but also between different migrant communities within Europe and beyond.
