Hey, Carín, your roots are in Hermosillo, your hometown. What about Hermosillo defines you today? Is it the way of being? Is it the way you behave in the world, or what you like? What do you have in you from Hermosillo?
I think it’s everything. I am always really proud, extremely proud of Hermosillo and try to take it anywhere. It has given me many things, right? As it’s near the border, and it’s not a big city it still keeps many of its traditions that are really rooted. So this mixture of modern and rooter things and everything that came to us for being so near to the border.
