Síntesis del Episodio

My guest today was born in a country called Sri Lanka, that is south of India in the Indian ocean.
She has migrated twice in her life, once to study her master's degree and her PHD, and the other for love.
Today she lives in the United States.
And she was in the studio to tell us about the whole experience of migrating to very different countries and cultures, for two different reasons.

The songs that my guest chose were:

Home I Phillip Phillips
Budapest I George Ezra
