The Start of Hispanic Heritage Month π
|
Hola Reader! Today is the start of Hispanic Heritage Month! Now I live in Portugal and it's not really celebrated here, but of course I have to. Latin America is one of my favorite places in the world and even though each country is unique, there are lots of similarities and its the warmness of the people that I love the most. I may live far from there now, but in the future I do plan to go back and live in many countries especially Peru to spend more time with family. I can't stand what's currently happening in the US against my community. Please stay safe and protect your loved ones whenever you can go. I hope things can eventually get better. * If you make a purchase through any affiliate links below, I may make a small commission at no additional cost to you. I appreciate your support in this way.
