Ndandibhalela ngePuerto Rico ixesha elide ngoku. (Ngaphezulu kweminyaka emithandathu, eqinisweni.) Emva kweencwadi ezimbini, iiblogi ezingenakubalwa, kunye namawaka e-imeyli yokufunda (mbulela abantu!), Ndiye ndathatha amathanga ambalwa. Izinto ezithandwa ngabantu ukuba zicele, okanye zibuze malunga nokuba zihambele esi siqithi. Enye kukutya kunye neevenkile. Enye imayelana nokuthandana.
Kule minyaka, abantu abaninzi baye bandicela ukuba ndicebise ukuba bangatshata bani, bahambe phi ukuya kwirejista yabo, nalapho bahlala khona. Ndade ndabafundi abambalwa babelana ngamabhinqa abo kunye nabafundi babo bafunda nabo (ndiyabonga uJody noAdam ). Kodwa i-imeyile yakutshanje yangenza ndaqonda ukuba andizange ndabelane ngezimvo zam, apho, ngokuqinisekileyo, umntu kufuneka ahambe xa ekhangele ukupaka umbuzo. Ndinike loo nto ndaza ndaza ndafika nale mibala emihle. Kwaye ukuba ukhetha nawuphi na umzuzu wakho omkhulu, ungandixelele ngoku!

Kodwa ndicinga ukuba, ukuba ufuna ukuphakamisa, uya kufuna kwakhona ubuncinane. Kuthe-ke malunga nolwandle olungabangela ukuba uthathe njengeyakho (ukuba unethamsanqa)?
Oku kushiya inani elikhulu leendawo zokukhetha, kodwa ndiya kuzinyanzela ukuba ndincincile uluhlu kwizinto ezintathu:

Ukugqithisa ikhefu lolwandle ngokubhekise kwicala lasekhohlo, kukho umhume wamanzi ofikeleleka kuphela xa umoya uhlala uzinzile kwaye umsele uphantsi. Yindawo engumlingo yesiphakamiso ... qinisekisa ukuba uwalondoloze loo makhonkco!

- I-Rincón : Eyaziwa ngokuba nezinye zezona zinto zikhangeleka kakhulu kwi-sunsets ePuerto Rico, amacwecwe apha azininzi kwaye zilungele ukuhamba. Yaye ukuba ukhe ukhetha ukuhlala kwiPhermavera yaseCorset Primavera enqabileyo, uya kuba nembono onje.

Le nto yintlanzi, kodwa ndifuna ukuphepha ukutyela ihotele; Ndaphinda ndikhangela ukutya kwendawo, kuba, emva koko, usePuerto Rico. Kwaye ndenyuka noCasa Lola.
Andiyithandi kuphela ukutya apha (inceba kaCheber Roberto Treviño), kodwa ndandithanda indlu yembali eyayiyiLola Milagros Cedeño. Indawo yokudlela ePuerto Rican iyonke i-nooks kunye ne-niches, kunye namagumbi abucala, iikona ezikufutshane kunye ne-cellar yangasese ongayigcina isidlo esikhethekileyo.
