Although I was born on the island and attended school in Puerto Rico, I have spent most of my life in States. But la isla del encanto / the island of love calls out to me on a daily basis, especially now during this time of isolation and confinement.
The thought of beautiful beaches, warm breezes, and the ability to spend time in nature without the sounds of sirens at all hours of the day and night makes me want to jump on a plane. But I won’t. Not yet.
COVID concerns are real and are still affecting travel. But this will not last.

*Puerto Rico is Spanish for “rich port”, the island’s official name; however, some honor the island’s Taino indigenous population who called the island Borikén or Boriquien by using this same name. This is also why you will often see Puerto Ricans refer to themselves as Boricuas. Like them, I choose to honor my great grandmother’s indigenous roots by saying I am Boricua, orgullosamente Boricua.

There’s this pandemic going on. Don’t come to Puerto Rico, period. We’re not your playground.
