MEXICO - Evan Worldwide Global Youth Perspectives
Manage episode 315113419 series 3293043
Indigenous temples, Cenotes, the largest underground water tunnels in the world, and known for its vast variety of cuisine, Mexico, officially titled the United Mexican States, has been referred to as land of extremes with its incredible geographical diversity, from beaches to rainforests to deserts.
I was excited to learn more about my friend Daniela and her family's Mexican culture and traditions. My ancestry is part Mexican, with my father born in San Antonio, Texas to parents of migrant workers. I unfortunately do not have a strong cultural connection with my Mexican heritage, so I was very eager to learn from Dany about her family. Growing up in San Diego, and being so close to Mexico, I have been exposed to delicious Mexican food and beautiful Mexican culture.
Dany shares how there are such amazing variations in the cuisine and ingredients depending on where you are in Mexico. I loved to hear Dany talk about her family's connection with each other and how food brings them together. She talked about her family coming together to enjoy delicious meals every Sunday. Their strong connection through cooking and the unity of coming together as a family can be found in so many cultures around the world.
