Códigos urbanos: Unraveling Latin American cities
Visiting a city isn't the same as living in it. Beneath the picture postcard veneer is a vorágine del caos (maelstrom of chaos) sometimes contained, sometimes not. As usual, we lift the cover and reveal the complex reality — slices of life — in four Latin American cities: Lima, San José de Costa Rica, Ciudad de México, and San Salvador.
How it works
You'll be listening to real radio stories – produced for native speakers – with just enough help to keep you on track.

Native speakers, speaking natively
You need real Spanish — not ”slow” Spanish — to develop a fluent ear. Lupa features extraordinary people from all over Latin America telling their story, in their own voice.
