Alex Duvall shared an emotional post on Instagram to celebrate his first year outside of Cuba, accompanied by a message filled with gratitude, nostalgia, and memories. From the iconic Brooklyn Bridge, the singer reflected on several special moments he has experienced during this time, both personal and professional.

“Starting from scratch is never easy,” he wrote, reflecting on what it means to leave the comfort zone to begin a new life. Still, he expressed gratitude for the opportunities he has received: “When you look back and realize how many blessings you have received, all you can say is: thank you, God.”

In that year, Alex has experienced intense moments: he has shared the stage with colleagues from the urban genre, has collaborated with international artists like Wisin, Marc Anthony, and Feid, and has visited several cities in the United States. He also expressed gratitude to those who have accompanied him in this journey, stating that “everything counts.”

The post also included her latest photos in Cuba, alongside her family, before leaving. A detail that resonated with many of her followers, especially those who understand how difficult it is to say goodbye to loved ones when leaving the country in search of something better.

Like Alex, thousands of Cubans have made the difficult decision to leave their homeland in search of opportunities that they cannot find within the Island. The lack of freedoms, the economic decline, and the absence of a future increasingly push more young people to emigrate in order to grow, fulfill their dreams, and live with dignity.

The message, direct and sincere, has touched many of his followers, especially those who have also experienced the migration process. Duvall made it clear that he has grown as an artist and as a person, and that this first year is just the beginning of a new stage. "Thanks to those who arrived, to those who are here, and to those who have left as well," he wrote. With his own style, positive attitude, and a supportive community, Alex Duvall celebrates his evolution without forgetting where he comes from.
