GringoMundo gets hangtime with two proud gringos!

The History of GringoMundo

GringoMundo was created by Adam, el gringo original, after years of being jeered by native Latinos for simply being a gringo.

"Why?" Adam wondered.  "I love Latin America and I am proud of being a GRINGO!"

The only explanation was a lack of understanding and appreciation between the two cultures.  Hence, GringoMundo was born, dedicated to uniting Gringos and Latinos!

Is Gringo a Four Letter Word?

Absolutely Not!  Gringo is derived from griego, which is Spanish for "Greek," the proverbial name given to an unintelligible language, like in Shakespearean "it was Greek to me."

False Meanings

Gringo did not originate during the Spanish-American War because Americans were wearing green coats, or because Mexicans were yelling "Green Go!"  This is an invented explanation. Gringo was used in Mexico long before the war, and Americans actually wore blue uniforms!
