Welcome to our jungle adventure. These are the stories and thoughts from our day to day lives living in El Petén, Guatemala. Some things we go through are because we live in Guatemala, other things because of WHERE we live in Guatemala, and the funniest things happen to us just because we're Gringos trying to adapt to a culture very different from our own.

Would you try this in the States?
I had to move 11 tables 45 minutes away. To make things secure we used bailing wire to tie everything together and down. Everything got there fine with only minor injuries to the gringo with big hands that kept catching the ends of the wire. In Guatemala this is one of the tamest things you'll see people moving in the back of pickup trucks.

11 tables?! How about 32 people!?
ReplyDeleteSince nobody will be surprised that Guatemalans dangerously overload vehicles, this is more a commentary on the Gringo going native...
