SPEAKER_01Yeah. Wow, interesting. Shout out to all my people in Queens and Elmhurst.
SPEAKER_04The best borough ever. Um I've always been a Queens girly, always. So I was raised in Queens in Elmhurst. I went to pre-K in the area, which is where I learned English, because I was English con sus amigos in the collegio. And you know, Queens is a melting pot, like they call it. So just How would you say melting?

SPEAKER_01It like doesn't make sense, but it does. It kind of does. Like it just sounds pretty much.
SPEAKER_04But yeah, so I had a bunch of different classmates. I don't know. I I never felt like that way that it didn't fit in because we were all different in a way. Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01But you guys all spoke English. We all spoke English.
SPEAKER_04But a lot of them, just like me, their first language was the language they spoke at home. So English. Or I studied in pre-K, elementary school. Then in middle school, my mom put me in Catholic school, which was private school. So Cali. And in Cali, she wanted me to have like a smooth transition, although it was always smooth for me because like the moment she told me we were moving out, I'm like, okay, because I spent every summer in Cali.
SPEAKER_00The British School.
SPEAKER_04Yeah, and all the teachers are British. Really? In Cali? Yeah. Well, at least when I was here. I think it's changed a little bit since I graduated, but it's still open. But the British school, and then Noveno hasta once, because in Colombia the bachillerato is the noveno to once. Not like over here because it's hasta 12. But fun fact, when I got there, you have to do a placement test. I did horribly in the placement test. No, remote. At the point that when the director academic started revising, he was talking to my brother. He was like, No, it's you will repeat it, you have to repeat it. So my mother said, No, I compromise that it will pass. And my mother was like, Octavo one, I was noveno. So, I mean I repeat one, so those bad I did in the policeman test. But I passed math like he wanted me to. I just failed everything else, English including. But yeah.

SPEAKER_01Todo is crazy. Incredible, Marika. Nah, nah.
SPEAKER_03Nah, nah, nah.
SPEAKER_01Wow. Yeah? Okay, so in Cali and Nueva York?
SPEAKER_04In April. And I regreshed because my papers are jubilated. So I originally had decided to move back out here because I study disease. But when I study disease, I've always had like that creative side, which is what brought me into like the whole social media thing where like I create content and I do social media management and I've been creating my own content recently. And then I've always posted it on TikTok, but like on and off, not as consistent. And then I wanted to do it on Instagram, but in Instagram. I think it's because I know more people on Instagram. Or like I have like more friends, yeah, like people from school, and you know how people are. Yeah, they're always judging. Um I was like, you know what? Fuck it. I'm just gonna start posting. So I started posting. Well, on my the one that you found.
SPEAKER_02Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_04And I guess it worked out, you found that video.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_04So I've always posted like, you know, like um makeup tutorials and like beauty tips and tricks. I always I've always loved cooking. So I'm like, maybe I'll start posting videos cooking. So I started doing it because they started doing well on TikTok. So I'm like, let me just post them on Instagram. But like my touch to the Spanglish, because I'm not sure.
SPEAKER_01I mean, it's untalent, it's a skill.
SPEAKER_04And a lot of people can relate.
SPEAKER_01Of course.
SPEAKER_04So I started posting the videos like cooking, and they took off and it's on Instagram, they took off, especially the Sancocho one. Like till this day, I still get well, I say till this day, I posted like two weeks ago. I get a lot of comments, like people that loved it, and then you got like the little comments. Like a lot of people were like, Ay, it's ridiculous, it's Colombiana, Suerte con los real suerte. But te lo juro que recibi comentarios that you would think that you hate Paula Jara, that was it. So yeah, but because I started posting the whole Columbia thing, I started posting videos like about our culture and like how sometimes the whole Spanglish thing, or a lot of people started relating with that. And that's what made my account like blow up in a way. So I mean, I don't have a thousand like a million followers, but it's slowly but surely growing.
SPEAKER_01That's so funny that you said that because like on this podcast, this in Colombia. Yeah, I was talking about my wife, and my wife lives in Cuba. And there's an exit. But this exit we had 10 years after the hospital. And I hear that when the people at the noche, this and the other. And my thousand of him, how you came to the USA for the world, and I said this interesting. And I said, No, but the different, this and the other. So I said, I want to have a podcast watching stories of people who are in my case of generation, or when my mother came and this podcast in Colombia, with it, and Spangless, English, Spanish. And you say that you don't have here nor here, so I'm in the limbo. And I'm in Spanish, I am very well.
SPEAKER_04But there's this in Spanyol, or not in Spanish, in English. Which that's why I feel like they're haters online when they're not.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, yeah, no, it's true. And also, like, I don't know, but for me, it's important to have the culture colombian present. Because one day, when I have those, if you have the opportunity to take a family, a life, to enjoy this. Because they're gonna be second generation. And from what I've seen, second generation.
SPEAKER_04But if you have something very clear, is that my kids are bilingual, but you don't want any hate, I'm sorry, no hate, but I don't want to pierce the idioma. And it's for nothing, but we are realistic. In Colombia, we are very and we get a lot of compliments, right? I was in Mexico because I was a diploma in Mexico and it's like if it had been in those pyramids. Imagine those pyramids that are and the you are in Colombia. And I said in my head, I'm like, Senora, for sure, why are you stopping like this? And bad timing, bad timing. And you say, 'I'm gonna have so I'm linda,' but imagine I'm like, you couldn't tell me this downstairs when we were already like on the bottom. But yeah, you don't want to put the idioma for not.
SPEAKER_01And in Colombia it's a juvent.
SPEAKER_04Like outfits for another.
SPEAKER_01It's the pinto marica, there are a lot of palabras, but I mean, but yeah. Because um, I know you're gonna answer this correct, but come to this tapete.
SPEAKER_04Oh, maybe it's a calena thing.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it could be could be called. Yeah, but it's not tapete. Un alfombra.
SPEAKER_04But Spanglish tapete.
SPEAKER_01That's Spanglish. That's a Spanglish word.
SPEAKER_04I have another Spanglish word for you. What's Spanish? Yarda.

SPEAKER_04Like I I record their content, I edit it, I post it. Like, yeah. Like I have um restaurants, for example. I have another girl that does like cleaning services. She's not even in New York, she's in Virginia. Oh really. So it's a loacano, but with the social media, like I don't even have to be there.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, of course. They just send everything to you and you edit it and all.
SPEAKER_04I put I put it together.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, pues.
SPEAKER_04I'm telling you, I'm I've been loving social media.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, of course. Hell yeah. I mean it's it's a great way to um expand business and build your own brand and build your own business and go from there. And then you could either stop what you're doing on your full-time job and focus on that. So no, it is it's it's good. It's good, it's good. Um, so okay, so you that's where you studied, and now you're living in Queens full-time.
SPEAKER_04Yes. So fun fact, I was raised in Queens, like I mentioned, in Elmherst, and then moved to Columbia. When I moved back, I was supposed to live in Queens, but oh it it didn't happen. So I ended up living with my brother in the Bronx.
SPEAKER_01In the Bronx? So that Bronx is a little different. The Bronx, yeah, it's it's it's uh the Bronx is like um shout out to all my Dominicans, all my Puerto Ricans, right? It's it's a lot, it's a lot of the um Dominican and Puerto Rican cult culture. Queens is uh definitely more Colombian.
SPEAKER_04You in Queens you see a lot of Colombians, Ecuadorians, Mexicans, uh-huh. Pero you see a lot of Mexicans in the Bronx also, though. Really? Yeah.

Like at times I'm like, Yeah, you got that New York attitude, go, go, go, go, go. I will admit that I've fallen that too. Oh, of course. So I like I said, I moved back 10 years ago, right? And I moved back like in in April, and that same year I went to Colombia in December. And when you're seeing okay, what is wrong with me? Like, let me relax. I'm not in New York, I'm on vacation, like I don't have to be in that go, go, go, go, go. But it's a thing.

When I was in Medelline, I had done shopping out here because in this episode in Cali no had Forever 21, there was American Eagles, so when I flew out here, I wanted to like stock up on all these things. So when I went to Medelline, I went to the mallet, and when I got the mallet, I didn't know. So I did not. I don't know. When I take that, I was hysterical, hysterical. I went to the way, and when I'm at the class, I feel there's a tattoo, and the all giggling, like you said, no one did not, no one's like. When I came and said, This is Nicky Jam. So you know when you feel someone staring at you, like you know, I feel like this because you went and this because I was staring right at him. No, talk, talk.

SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's interesting. Yeah. Wow.
SPEAKER_01We got completely off topic.
SPEAKER_04I tend to say that because I'm a yapper.
SPEAKER_01Ay, yo me acuerdo.

SPEAKER_04You see, I listen to everything, but I feel like country music is where I draw the line.
SPEAKER_01Really?
SPEAKER_04The most country I'll get is I listen to Taylor Swift. But like more of her pop songs.
SPEAKER_01More of her pop songs, got it.
SPEAKER_04There's this one girl though. I'll show you. It's country music, but it is launched.
SPEAKER_01Put it, put it close to the mic.
SPEAKER_04Oh, okay. Now I hear it. Hold on.
unknownShe's from Texas.
SPEAKER_04This one I like. But that's where I draw the line.
SPEAKER_00Oh, that way.
SPEAKER_04You haven't heard the song?
unknownThere's nothing I can do. It does.
SPEAKER_01I know. What's her name?
SPEAKER_04Her name is Ella No se coma pronunciar that Ella Langley. Langley. Langley.

SPEAKER_01You like her?
SPEAKER_04Yeah. Well, I've only heard that song. So I've heard that.
SPEAKER_01And okay, so let's go back to the topic because we got way off topic. Um so you're it's your 10th you got here 10 years ago.
SPEAKER_04Yes.
SPEAKER_01And you're doing social media.
SPEAKER_04With my full-time job, of course.
SPEAKER_01With your full-time job, okay. Um and like while you were here in the US or in Colombia, did you ever have like that culture like identity crisis where you didn't really know where you were like were you confused at any point, or was there ever a time in your life where you felt like either disrespected or something happened where I think like maybe like crisis-wise?
SPEAKER_04The thing is, because like I spent every summer going to Colombia, right? So that helped me in a way.
SPEAKER_01Of course, because Colombia.
SPEAKER_04And so, you know, when you grow up there, I'm pretty sure you can relate, you hang out with cousins. Of course. Because we always have a bunch of cousins. Literally. So I would get a lot of the like, so that would be a little frustrating because you send that frustration that's entender. I would say that, and then here as an adult, it's just in English.
SPEAKER_01In English?
SPEAKER_04Uh-huh. Cuidado con lo que vas a decir. Cuidadito. But go ahead.
SPEAKER_01No, no, no. Finish, finish, because I want you to forget. No, no, no, no. Finish and I'll, you know, go ahead. Okay.
SPEAKER_04No, because like, yeah, you have a little bit of an accent. An accent? What?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_04Maybe I have a queen's accent. But that's about it.
SPEAKER_01No, I would say I can notice it. But I do notice that you do have a very small accent, and also you have a queen's accent.
SPEAKER_03Okay.
SPEAKER_01Like, and there's nothing wrong with that. No, I know, I know. No, and plus, like, for me, like that would be my ideal like woman. Una mujer who is Latina, who is a culture colombiana, and a New Yorker.
SPEAKER_03Because the lista strict, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. New York.
SPEAKER_01And the Nueva York, because you think the mujer is de Nueva York, no sé, but. Uff, que si actitud, like New Yorkino, like no one's gonna fuck with me. Like, yeah, yeah, you can't fuck with us. I love that. I love that. And detages, like to me, that's like that says a lot. You know what I'm saying? Because I've met a lot of women that you know it's all about like being bougie and being all this stuff, but oh we know me, so I'm like, ah, that's not me. Digamos, and go to a nice dinner, great. But después de rumbiar o algo, una empanada, una papa rellena, digamos. That's a cool ass woman. To me, a cool woman, like my ideal woman would be that. That to me says a lot about a girl that could be like, hey, like I like to go to my spaces, like, hey, babe, let's do something simple, whatever.
SPEAKER_04No, the situation no siempre va a server. No, no, obviously no. Like when I mean that's the way I've always seen it.
SPEAKER_01With that being said, no me trate.
SPEAKER_04If anything, I've confirmed that you definitively don't start with a Latin. No, especially, because I had the experience with the Colombian. I would say maybe well. I've only ever dated someone from Kylie. They traumatized me. So yeah, I haven't had the best experience with Calenios. I don't think I've ever met a Caleno out here. Well, whatever. I I kind of spoke to someone who is American, well, gringo, but it was just like talking because they are frÃdos. And I mean no me gusta. Because I'm cariñosa. You try to be cariñosa and I gotta be cariñoso with me. Like if I'm talking to you and quiero and no me fluy the palabras in English and Spanyol, but you can say so. And it's not the same, me pulling out Google Translate to like try to translate it for them. It just doesn't hit the same. Exactly. And for you to curse in English, it's not the same. You can say triple fucker. Yeah, you can't say it. It's not gonna sound the same. But yeah, like um, I was in a relationship with a Puerto Rican, which I loved because I feel like the cultures are very similar.
SPEAKER_02Uh-huh.
