Here at One Day | One Image, we are committed to being as helpful as possible. As long as we’re entertained by it.

So, I turned to Google Translate to find out what “la kumbia” is in English. Google Translate told me that it means “the kumbia.” That was not as helpful as maybe I’d hoped for. I sought additional assistance, this time using Adolfo Translate™ (also known as my friend Adolfo Perez). That was a much more helpful resource: Adolfo said “kumbia” (also, “cumbia”) is a particular sort of dance with its origins in Latin America. Wikipedia, a slightly less reliable source than Adolfo Translate™, concurs.
