About

The video describes Mariana's experience after Hurricane Maria in 2017. Living in Miami, she felt scared and worried about the future. Her home was damaged by water, but she felt lucky compared to others who couldn't contact loved ones. The hurricane affected everyone and strained relationships. Mariana spent time listening to music and found comfort when communication improved in Puerto Rico. She advises staying close to loved ones, helping others, and sharing resources during natural disasters because some people are less fortunate than you are.
