I’m a 30 year old Canadian who traveled to Guatemala on my way to Brazil when I stopped to learn Spanish and work. After six months in the country, I met Irving and fell in love. My trip was postponed indefinitely and we made a life together on the side of a volcano, losing three babies before we were gifted with Dorian.

Dorian was born with an imperforate anus, going through three surgeries before his brother, Dante, came along 16 months later. The two are VERY close, though they do fight like any siblings. More recently, we welcomed our 3rd son, Dominic!

I’m a freelance writer, Irving is a musician, we homeschool our sons and live a pretty decent life here in Guatemala.
