Episode Overview
A visit to Yucatán isn't truly authentic without experiencing its stunning cenotes—natural freshwater pools nestled in caves. For the ancient Mayans, these formations represented a passage to the underworld. To delve deeper into Mayan culture, Pati explores Cenote Xocempich alongside activist and lawyer Zoila Cen, who has devoted her efforts to supporting the Mayan community. The following day, Zoila extends a warm invitation to Pati to join her niece’s birthday party, offering a glimpse into family celebrations and traditions.
