Next stop: El Salvador! I’ve heard so much about the country’s dramatic improvements in safety under President Nayib Bukele, and I was curious to see it for myself. I met Giovanni, a local Spanish teacher, who shared his perspective on how things are changing here—especially when it comes to security and tourism.Spending time with Giovanni reminded me why I love learning Spanish so much. It’s not just about the language itself but about connecting with people on a deeper level. And speaking of new challenges, I decided to try my hand at surfing for the first time! Let’s just say it was a humbling experience, but there’s something so exhilarating about learning a skill that forces you to let go and go with the flow (literally).El Salvador surprised me in all the best ways, and I’m leaving here inspired and more curious than ever about this vibrant country.0:44 Welcome to El Salvador1:11 El Salvador's Dark Past and Hopeful Future5:02 Exploring El Salvador: From Flights to Fun08:58 Practicing Spanish with Lisbeth17:17 Transportation in El Salvador18:35 Surfing Adventures22:07 Culinary Delights: Pupusas23:59 Spanish Lessons with Giovanni26:26 Bitcoin and Safety in El SalvadorLinks Episode 3Esencia NativaLos 3 Hermanos Surf School Sources ​​NBC News Clip
