I'm going to start writing an article about these legends that I grew up witnessing in Guatemala. It's going to be a deep-dive research into a topic that has always fascinated me. It will be the perfect project to work on to keep my mind distracted from the pain I am feeling inside. 🌄 I'm really excited about it.

I live in the next town over, which is a little less populated by other foreigners, and I went to go to the creative jam at Eden, and what I played was soulful.

After having a "hero's experience" in Atlanta and saving a fellow friend's life during a swimming party, during high school, A few years after moving to Texas, and living on the Gulf Coast, I decided that I wanted to become a lifeguard so that I could be trained in aquatic safety an...
