Week 44: Mezcal, Migration & Memory: A Latina’s Berlin Journey

In this warm and reflective episode, Mika - a Venezuelan
entrepreneur and now the Brand Ambassador for Mezcal Cómplice in
Germany shares her story of migration, reinvention, and finding
ritual in a new home. From escaping instability in Venezuela to
falling in love with Mexico’s rich mezcal traditions, her journey
is one of resilience, identity, and cultural connection. She opens
up about the emotional and spiritual depth of mezcal, how it’s
lovingly handcrafted over generations, and why it should never be
"shot," but savored. We also talk about living through Berlin’s
long winters, finding seasonal joy, and why Día de los Muertos is
less about mourning and more about celebrating love that endures.
