I'm from Argentina, my family is from the smallest province, Tucumán. I don't really know my heritage. It's possible that my ancestors came from Europe but there's no one I can ask for. When you don't know your roots it's feels like there is something missing at the beginning of your story. But I've learned to live my present honouring my family the best way I could.

Thank you for sharing Marita. I resonate with what you’ve shared about the complexities of trying to connect with our roots. Growing up I struggled with learning about my heritage bc I realized that a lot of history is shrouded in trauma which makes it challenging to connect with older family members because they are not as open to talk about it. Like you expressed, we decide how we want to honor our roots. Sending you love 💓💓
