I enjoy cumbias. Thanks for posting the video!

I generally find the style of Spanish spoken by the introducer amusing. Blindingly fast (at least to me) and yet clear. I wonder what her spoken words per minutes is.

Back in the 70s, I spent a month in Mexico, travelling by train and bus (and hitch-hiked once). I found that the words-per-minute decreased as I headed north. I’m almost positive it wasn’t my ability to understand increasing.
