Síntesis del Episodio

Puerto Rico’s cultural and demographic landscape is a flavorful fusion of European, African and Taino indigenous influences, which left a lasting imprint in both, the artistic and cultural terrain and in the country's collective imagination. A vibrant archipelago rich in its rhythms, food, and people, yet divided by a three-party political system that pits those seeking independence against those advocating for its status as a U.S. territory. With deep-rooted heritage, we hope Puerto Rico’s future will embrace its authentic identity, free from external cultural influence. Though our adventure was brief, it left a lasting impression of the island's complex and beautiful essence.
