Highlights of San Salvador
Hola El Salvador! We finally made it! A had indeed pulled off an incredible surprise, and finally touching down in San Salvador was a dream come true. I never expected to end up with this stamp in my passport. First impressions? The customs process is smoother than the car rental process. But we weren’t about…

Second Breakfast in Honduras
I’d been wanting to keep these posts in chronological order, but this story is too good to wait on…. so let’s jump ahead a bit. It’s always been a dream of mine to conquer the whole of Central America. But Honduras, much like El Salvador, was always one of those countries that seemed off limits…

Midnight Mayhem

A Simple Reflection
Although change can be good, needed even, change is difficult. Sometimes we change because it’s necessary. Whether it’s a life event that necessitates us to take on a different role – such as a familial role or a new role at work – or because we need a break; a change in scenery. Maybe in…

Guatemala con niños
Is it just me, or does it seem like there are so many rules associated with parenting and daily life nowadays? And let’s not forget all the people judging you on those rules and nit-picking everything that you do (or you don’t do). Sometimes life at home can become so demanding and overwhelming that it…
