Weekend getaway! :D

Went to Trujillo for the weekend. It was great to get out of El Porvenir for a little while!! It was probably the most beautiful drive I’ve ever been on. I can’t even tell you about it because I lack the words. But trust me when I say that there’s something comforting about being surrounded by...

Sept 30th

WET WET WET WET WET. I know I’m from Vancouver and all but I’ve never seen so much rain. Our House almost flooded the other day and we now have a lake in our front yard... but that’s ok, I like lakes.

Safety...

Oh, forgot to mention... Things are feeling a little less than safe here. Some of the girls were heading home the other day @ about 5 pm (still broad daylight) and a man approached them and demanded he give them money. A little unsure of the details but I think he said that he had a gun and...

Sept 26th

Had a fantastic day today, most of the girls went to Pico Bonito to check it out, and it was amazing. We got to swim in the waterfall and used the opportunity to get ourselves something like clean (our water has been out since the ‘hurricane’- but is back now). There is no point in me trying to...

Sept 25th

The kids that I’ve been working with have a way of making a difficult experience so very worthwhile... I’ve been feeling really homesick since I’ve arrived, but when I’m with the kids it’s difficult to be too sad. Its funny how we can feel like we’re quite deprived growing up in a bad area in...

Safe and Sound/ Sept 20th

As you probably know I’ve arrived in Honduras safely and am so excited to be here. The kids are absolutely amazing and I feel lucky that I get to play even a small part in their lives. The voluntarios are kind of the local celebs @ SOS and we’re constantly surrounded by loving and curious...

Fronteras, Rio Dolce to Utila

On a dull and overcast day that threatened rain, we left Captain John's Marina on January 3rd to travel to Texan Bay Marina which is a safe stop much closer to Livingston (at the mouth of the RIO DOLCE RIVER). We were travelling with two other boats: Honah Lee II and Sea Tryst. As we toured...

Rain, Rain Go Away

One day was enough in Copan; our next stop is Gracias; supposedly the capital of Central America back when the Spanish came to conquer, then on through El Salvador to Nicaragua. We got on the road mid-morning and had a smooth drive to Gracias besides the occasional cattle herding blocking our...

Copan Ruinas

Copan Ruinas is the name of the town and the name of the famous Mayan ruins. The small town of Copan Ruinas is set on a steep hill with cobble Stone streets and old colonial buildings (cobble Stone roads look cool but aren‘t the most fun thing to drive or walk on). There is not much to do in...

Detour !!!

Pretty much as soon as the sun rose and the roosters started cock-a-doodle-doing we got up and packed up and on the road out of town at about 7:30 AM. Back tracking from a few days before we headed back to Guatemala City. Everything was going good since we were familiar with the roads until… we...
