Visiting Mexico 🇲🇽 Learning to speak Spanish 🫶

My family of several generations has deeply rooted ancestry, not only from Mexico but also from Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Texas. My family has lived in history for many years from both sides. An interesting fact is that my dad was born in Mexico and immigrated to the United States, where he became a citizen.

I grew up in a Mexican American household, although my dad and his side of the family often spoke to me in Spanish during my childhood years, while most of my other family mainly spoke English. Unfortunately, I grew up speaking little Spanish, although I was able to understand and pick up Spanish more than speaking throughout my life. As I have gotten older, I am starting to speak more Spanish, but I am in the process of learning to speak more to communicate with others. I am not only learning this skill but also learning to speak it for my dad's mom, my grandma.
