Husband Mike and I are teachers (he’s a math teacher, I’m an autism specialist). We spent a month the summer of ‘03 in Belize and Guatemala with our 3 kids, first trip to CA since several visits to Guatemala in the 80’s (middle child is native of Guat, joined us through adoption). In 04-05 our kids lived in Australia, Panama, and The Netherlands on overseas study and community service trips and son Isaac has since studied and volunteered in Honduras, Guatemala, and Cuba; he’s currently living and working in Africa. Our daughter has travel fever and is lucky to be married to someone who helps her sustain that habit.

• Every summer starting in 2005 I’ve split a month or so between a Spanish immersion program (usually with a group in tow) and vacation time with Mike. I’d love to explore other Central and South American countries but we’ve become stuck on our favorites: Guatemala, Honduras, and Belize. Checked out Mexico for a month before heading to Guatemala in June 2010, though, and headed back to the Yucatán for a week after Christmas. Next summer back to Guatemala with beach time in Honduras (again). Happy trails!
