"You have a Latin heart."

That is one of the best compliments I have ever received! My nextdoor neighbour told me that when I lived in Costa Rica.

When I was 18-years-old, my first real love introduced me to the Merengue (the national dance of the Dominican Republic) and to the hot sun of this beautiful nation. Then later in life, I learned Spanish and Salsa dancing. If you were looking for me between the ages of 25 and 30, I was probably at a Salsa bar in Montreal!

Here are five must-hear Latin songs songs that I just have to introduce you to:

1. Bomba Estéreo - Somos Dos

2. Rosario - Tu Boca

3. Gente de Zona - La Gozadera et Marc Anthony

4. Chino y Nacho - Andas En Mi Cabeza et Daddy Yankee

5. David Bisbal - Adoro
