 

This week’s episode is one of those love stories that spans years and countries. 

 

177 Nations of Tasmania: Ana From Panama 

First, Ana fell in love with ballet at her home in Panama City. 

This passion for dance will take her all over Cuba in the Caribbean, where, at an arts college, she would meet her second love, Elias.  

This beautiful story will take you from the closed borders and cancelled flights of COVID to seeing Anna as a young mother in Tasmania trying to make a new life while preserving her culture and identity. 

This story was originally published on 177 Nations of Tasmania, produced by Mark Thomson. To hear the full episode, head to www.markthomsonmedia.com or search ‘177 Nations’ wherever you get your podcasts.

With additional editing by Jespher Wen.
