"Traveling has always been a part of my heart, I realize now that I got my travel bug from my parents. It started the moment they decided to immigrate to the U.S. and all of those years they took us on those road trips back to México and instilled in us the importance of family and tradition. My heart was always looking for ways to return to México. The courage that I needed to put in my two weeks' notice to travel back to the motherland and to have faith that I would be alright came from them, from the example they set going to a country they didn't know, figuring it out, and realizing that it turned out alright for them. I didn't need to find the courage out on an adventure, but the adventure did help me realize that I had courage in me all along as an inheritance from my family. All I needed was to reconnect with it".In Aventura, Amor y Tacos, Maira Hernández traveled to her motherland in Michoacán, México to spend several months with her abuelos in the ranchos her parents were raised in to reconnect to the life they had left behind.

It was never Toño's plan to leave El Salvador behind. Toño has spent his entire life rising hours before dawn to feed the animals and mind the farm of his father Jose Angel. He wants nothing more than a plot of land and a farm of his own. And he knows exactly how to get it: make his way across the Mexican border to the United States of America, where he'll earn enough money to help his family and himself. It's like Jose Angel says the day Toño leaves: "You always have a home to come back to." But the year is 1979. And the Salvadoran Civil War is about to begin. Now Toño is working under the table for jewelers and roofers and cohabitating with his fellow immigrants, working every moment he can to secure his plans. He's searching for a woman who might help him start his own family in El Salvador, and abandoning those who won't sacrifice their dreams for his-all the while ignoring his father's warnings of the chaos back home. What happens when a dream disappears? In uncertain circumstances in an unfamiliar country, can you find another life to fight for? Marcos Antonio Hernandez's The Education of a Wetback is a moving story of the haphazard, unexpected search for the American dream.
