Volviendo a casa
Es difícil creer que hace 43 años tomé un autobús con mi mamá y tres de mis hermanas y me fui de El Salvador. No tenía ni idea de a dónde íbamos.

Going Home
It’s hard to believe that 43 years ago I took a bus with my mom, and three of my sisters and left El Salvador. I had no idea where we were going. Thinking back, I don’t remember having any luggage, but we probably had some change of clothes. We had no real possessions to take. […]

Growing Up Content And Without the Gadgets
I don’t remember much of my childhood. I have faint memories. From these memories I know I was content. I have shared my experience growing up in El Salvador up to the age of 10 with my children and students. Yes, times are different, I get it, but children today have much much more than […]
