#91: In this episode of Money Noticias Podcast, host Israel and Sunem are joined by Jenny and Kevin, two Mexicans from Chicago who decided to migrate "back" to the motherland. Both of their families migrated from Mexico to the United States before they were born. In 2021, with dual citizenship and the urge to feel closer to their roots, they moved to Mexico, living nomadically for the first two years before settling in Mexico City. Now, with life’s many twists and turns, they are looking to move on from Mexico City as they figure out where in Mexico they want to make a permanent home.
