Hola mi gente, welcome to the  “The Aguacate Chronicles”, I’m your host Giraldo Luis Alvaré. Gracias for listening.

Our first episode was the icebreaker, el rompe hielo. Cafecito, Caipirinha, Feijoada y Flan gave you a perfect start to the season. We’re only getting started and we got more in store for you to put your tastebuds in overdrive. 

Renata and I will discuss clips featuring The King of Latin Soul, Joe Bataan and Award Winning Journalist, Speaker, Author and Founder of GoLike, Mariana Atencio. Arepas, pork chops and well you're going to have to listen to the episode to hear about the rest.

Make sure you have something to snack on with a beverage to wash it down. Buen provecho. Enjoy the show.
