Summary

It's Hispanic Heritage Month!

I am joined this week by Ruthie Fonseca, my long lost neighbor from Puerto Rico. We have a list of 10 facts about Puerto Ricans about things that we say and do when raised in the island.

Ruthie endured Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico one year ago and was able to get on the first flight out of PR 5 days after Maria destroyed our beautiful island. She is opening up to everything she experienced during the storm and how she feels about going back one year after.
