I love your blogs! Sarah,
I have been following your story since before I moved to Honduras with my whole family (including my three kids 3,5, and 7). We have since moved back to the states again (Maine for now) as it got too corrupt and dangerous where we were. (La Ceiba) We never got residency either so we could not invest any more money into a business we were trying to start there as we were afraid it may just be that we would be kicked out and then have to leave our business behind. I still love Honduras and noone who hasn't been there will quite get it in my family. They all thought I was kind of crazy to move there in the first place (we used to live in a big house in SF, California area.) Anyway. I love your blogs. By the way, I used to be a teacher myself (before kids) and taught Deaf and hearing impaired kids for ten years. I really respect what you are doing and wish you the best this school year. My now 9 yr old son is in 4th grade so I love that you are teaching fourth! Take great care to enjoy it all. Please add me to you blog list. Best Regards, Carol Lynn (samandcl@yahoo.com)
Oh and when we stayed at a friends home in Tegus we were "warned" not to travel alone (without armed drivers) to go anywhere and I thought that was BS until we heard about a threat of kidnapping Expats...I still don't know if I believe it...but it is a wee less safe than I was comfortable with - with my kids so yet another reason to come home. We had them in really great schools (the older ones). Mazapan was the name (Do you know it? in La Ceiba? it is the only "American School" in the city. If you facebook...I am Carol Lynn Willer Featherstone and would LOVE to add you as a friend. Your tales are so great and now I still enjoy Honduras through your tales. if you do NOT facebook. Consider it...it is so much fun to connect with folks on that. You may want to change your last name and have a plain profile pic if you don't want all your students and families in your business.
Again - thank you for your posts and blogs...CL
PLEASE INCLUDE ME IN THE BLOGS Just want to say I enjoy reading your blogs and please make sure Im on the list to see private posts..Thanks Sarah and all the best!!!
Privacy Sounds like a very good idea Sarah. Please keep me on your list, I enjoy reading your blogs daily. Looking forward to seeing the pics of your apartment.
Would love to still read your blogs Sarah. I stumbled across them while you were teaching in Honduras a few years ago. As I passed through the country in the early 1990's I was intrigued to read your perspective and how things have changed there. Would love to continue to hear your updates especially now given the current political climate. Best of luck in your new home.
Cheerio,
Lillian
Like to be on list I have been following your adventures since we were in Honduras at the same time in 2006. We were stuck in Tegus for 10 days and I checked travelblog for other entries from Honduras...
I just retired from 33 years of teaching (mostly primary) (and five of those years overseas) and would like to hear your school stories. Add me if you like! You can view my blogs under beebe.

I love reading your blogs and will look forward to them every (?) morning with my coffee. It will make me feel that you are not so far away. I know that some things aren't easy right now but it sounds like you are handling them so well and with sense and maturity. We will keep thinking good thoughts for you and for Walter, no matter what the outcome.

It started with a year teaching in Honduras. Then it was home to the COLD winter of Canada to try and pay off some debts, followed by sailing the seas with Norwegian Cruise Lines, working as a youth counsellor.
Next it was back to Honduras, teaching in a school in Tegucigalpa!
Now, I am home in Canada but continue traveling.
Thanks for joining me on my journey!
