Introduction “Have faith in your dreams and someday. Your rainbow will come shining through. No matter how your heart is grieving if you keep, believing. The dream that you wish will come true.” Twice a year I'm afforded a luxury some will never know. I visit, volunteer, live, laugh, learn, and, love -local families in Central America. Who knows where my next adventure will land me... My goals are simple improve my Spanish & volunteer myself to organizations committed to improving the lives of its community members, as well providing my own personal gift of backpacks to school children. As a crossover educator I love bringing two worlds together; teaching Central Americans about Americans and Americans about Central Americans (sometimes it is more of the ladder). Having visited beautiful countries such as Guatemala and Nicaragua both having been rocked by war, disease, poverty, lack of education medical care, nutrition, and natural disaster... I hope you will enjoy my efforts to blog, educate and just enjoy the freedom of writing.
