Crossing Borders (Feat. Melany Roa)
from The Hidden Coconuts · host Agnibarna Hassan & Maira Anser
For this season’s final episode, we are so excited to share a conversation we had with Melany Roa back in September. Melany lives in Mexico and is medical student there, sharing with us her experience as a future doctor, the impacts pop culture and social media have had on her world and her favourite holiday - el Día de los Muertos, The Day of the Dead - and this is only the tip of the iceberg. We feel like brand new people after chatting with Mel because of the insight she carries! Her moving stories allowed us to reflect deeply on love and life. It was cool to compare and contrast our differing cultures, chat about shared experiences and listen to the first-hand experience Mel went through during a massive earthquake in Mexico. TW: Earthquakes, death
