It takes leaving somewhere youโ€™ve always known to truly see and appreciate itโ€™s beauty. Puerto Rico is my homeland. And donโ€™t get me wrong, I wasnโ€™t blind to see how beautiful of an island it is through my years as a full time resident. But once I actually left I learned thereโ€™s nothing better than a Puerto Rican Christmas eating โ€œarroz con habichuelas y tostones.โ€ Out of my five years living in New York, I only spent one White Christmas in the Big Apple. I knew after that first that never again would I be missing Navidades en Puerto Rico. I quickly realized that I wouldnโ€™t have it any other way.

โ€œSalimos de aqui, eso no es de donde quieraโ€
