We sit down with Flor, a local Spanish teacher with a background in biology and a master’s focus on ecology, to talk about her journey, her Yucatecan roots, and how she became part of our immersion program in Mérida. Together, we explore fascinating topics like whether coyotes in Yucatán are invasive or naturally expanding, and we highlight emblematic animals of the region such as the jaguar (Balam), pink flamingos, endemic rattlesnakes, white-tailed deer, and the iconic pájaro reloj. We also talk about ethical nature tourism, conservation, and how travelers and locals alike can better understand and respect Yucatán’s ecosystems while connecting more deeply with its culture.
Key Takeaways:
- How Flor’s background in biology adds a unique layer to learning Spanish and exploring Yucatán
