Lost Luggage and Found Traditions in Family Travels
Send us a Text Message.The echo of laughter and familial love rings clear as my brother Alberto and I swap stories about our diverse experiences in El Salvador and Mexico. While my own memories of El Salvador from 2009 are tinged with unease, Alberto's recent visit shines a light on a country undergoing a transformation, with safer streets and a burgeoning sense of hope under new leadership. It's a testament to change and the impact that time and governance have on a nation's narrative.Family trips: they're a recipe for chaos, and ours to Mexico was no exception, complete with the spice of drama and a dash of the ridiculous. Imagine navigating airport security with Grandma—never a dull moment there—and trying to keep track of everyone's paperwork and patience. Alberto's tales of reconnecting with our roots, indulging in local delicacies (sometimes to his stomach's dismay), and the eternal quest to keep family ties strong even when far apart are the heart of this episode's musings.So, buckle up and join us for an episode peppered with misadventures, from the perils of navigating new travel regulations to the warmth of a shared meal amidst the buzz of a family reunion. These stories stitch together the fabric of our travels, the vibrant culture we explore, and the enduring bonds that keep us coming back for more—food poisoning and all. With Alberto's candid revelations and my own reflective insights, this is an episode that captures not just the destinations we visit, but the journeys we take to get there.Support the Show.Follow us @ brokeboyz_ff on Instagram and TikTokIntro Music by Rockstar Turtle- Broke Boyz (999)

Gearing Up: Graduation, Grease, and Growing Up
Send us a Text Message.Every family has that one member whose tales of transition can fill a room with laughter and warmth; that's my little brother Beto for you. In a heart-to-heart episode of Broke Boys, Beto steps into the limelight to recount the rollercoaster ride from high school halls to the hallways of higher education. We're not just talking timetables and textbooks; this is a genuine slice-of-life story that captures the jittery joy of graduation and the nitty-gritty of nabbing the perfect class schedule, complete with a comedic take on our inherited mathematical prowess (or the occasional lack thereof).Our dad's knack for turning wrenches and managing fields has done more than just keep the farm running—it's fueled a family fascination with all things automotive. This episode gears up to explore how dad's dual role as farm manager and mechanic has influenced our career compasses, steering us toward the robust world of diesel mechanics. But it's not all grease and gears; we also shift into the entrepreneurial potential that comes with an engineering education, proving that passion can indeed drive purpose and profession.As Beto stands on the threshold of adulthood, we look back at the quintessential high school send-offs: prom, Grad Night escapades, and the pomp and circumstance of graduation day. There's something about walking across that stage (without tripping in your heels) that marks more than just the end of an era—it symbolizes the start of something new. So, buckle up for a ride down memory lane, filled with advice, anecdotes, and anticipation for what the future holds.Support the Show.Follow us @ brokeboyz_ff on Instagram and TikTokIntro Music by Rockstar Turtle- Broke Boyz (999)
