La Vida Salvadoreña...

This blog will be an attempt to capture snapshots of my life including the people I meet, the struggles I face, and the beauty of El Salvador in the next year as I live and work in both the rural community of Los Naranjos and in the city of San Salvador.

Labels: Ideas for this year and my love of El Salvador and the Salvadoran people began last summer while living with Angelica (the little girl in the picture) and her family.
