Las garitas in San Juan (a popular one off and on the island)? The city of Old San Juan? Salsa dancing? Cacos and their reggaetón? A specific dish? A specific person?
For me, it's always the houses. The combination of gates everywhere, cement, rooflessness, and bright colors guarantees that the houses are always going to be what I think of first when I hear "Puerto Rico". Maybe it's just because I spend a lot of time in them.

My mom´s first image is the riscos which overlooked the river near her house.
Neither one of us thinks of San Juan. San Juan somehow seems foreign to those of us from other parts of the island.
