This is the fifth episode of “3ta Kura” that we are experimenting with. Every two weeks, we will come to you with three things we found interesting, either in the news or in the journey of our lives, and talk about them. In each episode, we will also recommend something we found to be worth spending time on. We look forward to hearing what you think!
