“I’m from Australia. I had owned a restaurant for a few years. I sold it and since then I’ve been traveling thru the US and Central America. I have been gone for the last 6 months. I’ve been in Guatemala for the last two months. I’m living with a family here while I go to Spanish school. When I got here it just seemed like a great place so I stayed. I like traveling. Life should have some kind of adventure. Traveling and experiencing other cultures is mine.”
“I lived in Chicago and I was kind of tired of the guy I was seeing so I went online looking for jobs. I found one teaching English in Costa Rica. So I went. I discovered I wasn’t very good at it. I had $10,000 in the bank and decided I would just travel for six months. I’m now 8 years into that six months. I got here to Guatemala and decided I liked it. I now own two bars here. It’s great. We meet all kind of people from around the world and get to hear tons of stories. It’s wonderful interacting with everyone.”
