We're both older siblings.

Again, I'm Haitian American.

I can go down in the deep as far as like the culture.

Yeah, for those who don't know, can we get a little bit into that?

Absolutely.

So Haiti is just the neighbor of Dominican Republic.

They say a lot of times that it's the mountains that kisses the water.

Beautiful island, beautiful people, and the most resilient group of people you'll ever meet.

What's the food like?

So the food is very, it's heavily spiced.

I don't even know how to say it.

It's just, it feels as if when you're eating it, you're

It's a comfort food.

It's food that you feel full, but you can still go out and work and do something afterwards.

Yes.
