This is a Spanish-language YouTube podcast episode (Cracks Podcast) featuring Julio Frenk recounting his family's migration plans and personal family history. In this excerpt he explains the original plan to emigrate to Canada because European doctors had easier access to visas and work in provinces like Alberta, and he tells an extended anecdote about his grandmother, Mariana Frenk Besheim, who lived to 106, taught herself multiple languages (Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, English), and befriended a Mexican consulate officer in Germany while seeking to leave a hostile climate.
