Adela Breton: The Mexican Explorer

Season: 5 Episode: 32

Adela Breton was a relentless force, defying the expectations of her era with quiet intensity. Independent and unyielding, she ventured into the uncharted deserts and jungles of Mexico and South America, confronting both wild landscapes and societal norms. In those shadowed lands, she found the thrill of defiance, pushing the boundaries of what a woman of her time was believed capable of achieving.
