Move over chai! This week we bring you coffee, strong and sweet, from Brazil. Meet Cristiane who came to the US to take courses to improve her teaching skills. Along the way she met her husband, created a bilingual family, and wrote a book! Cristiane talks passionately about language as a rich cultural connection to our roots. Check out the fun Brazilian music (shared by her) that Nakul added to the episode. Sound editor: Nakul Agrawal. Art: Vicki Qvintero
