🌎 Terranauts Travel the World: Mexico 🇲🇽

Author: Encarni Remolina March 31, 2026 Duration: 11:49

Introducing Terranauts: Travel the World — a brand-new series where Captain Lucy takes young explorers on a monthly journey to discover the most fascinating places on our planet. And for our very first destination, she chose somewhere very close to her heart…
This episode, we’re flying to Mexico! 🇲🇽
Captain Lucy shares something special about her own story, and together we set off to explore a country that has a little bit of everything. We discover swimming holes so blue they look like something out of a dream, a sinkhole that comes alive every single morning in the most unexpected way, and the surprising story of how chocolate went from being used as money to becoming the sweet treat we know today. And that’s just the beginning.
These special Travel the World journeys are our way of going deeper with our Terranauts community. Visit www.terranautspodcast.com to learn how you can support the podcast and be part of every adventure.
¡Viva México! Keep exploring and discovering! 🚀

Thanks to our monthly supporters
