Meet McKenzie. A young girl who loves history, traveling, adventures and the outdoors. She is the youngest in a family where almost all of the elders were born in Panamá. Many share the last name Leinch while others, including her mother, have unique last names like Villalba, Perez, Jimenez, Bailey, Kidd and Kennedy. This may be a bit confusing but it tells the story about her family’s history and experiences.
