About the time in San Cristóbal
Sunrise today lands at 06:09 and sunset at 06:30 local time, giving 12h 22m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (9.27, -79.38) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in San Cristóbal.
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal San Cristóbal day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 14:00–22:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
San Cristóbal sits at latitude 9.27, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 22m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
