Episode 365
Published 1 year ago
Description
El Salvador used to be one of the most dangerous countries in the world. It was ruled by ruthless gangs, riddled with unchecked violence, and had a government that had completely lost control.

Now, tourists are returning, families walk the streets safely at night, and the country is now making headlines for very different reasons.
