I was born and raised in PR and saw these types of gestures a few times. Locals appreciate when outsiders come to the island to do positive things and show our little island to the world. Some locals might not have the monetary means to support the way they might want but they will feed you, party with you, help you out if you are stranded and much more.

Absolutely loving this build! “Buen Provecho”, is saying “I hope you enjoy your meal”, and it’s not nearly said enough here in the states. In PR they say it everywhere you eat. Gotta love that small gesture. Sending love from Chicago, but Rincon is where the heart is.
