3 Days in an Indigenous Guatemalan Village

Guatemala is home to beautiful mountains, volcanos, lakes, and friendly people. Many of these people are Mayan and live far up in the mountains way beyond where most tourists ever venture. In these villages of indigenous people are some of the kindest people who welcomed us in to tell their stories over the course of three days. We were in Guatemala working with a nonprofit ‪@sownforgood‬ to tell the story of another nonprofit's work. In these villages Spanish isn't the common language, but rather a variety of indigenous languages making communication beyond their community difficult. Quetzal Project (the nonprofit whose work we were filming) teaches children Spanish to enable them to continue in the public education system thus having the freedom and ability to further themselves in whatever ways they desire. Along the way we meet the friendly faces of children and women who are empowering themselves and future generations through education and artistry.

Hey y'all! We're Chris + Sara (or as you know us, Let’s Be Us), a husband and wife digital nomad travel duo currently working and traveling full time with our pup, Kramer. We've always dreamed of traveling full time, and in May of 2018 we took the leap and made it happen! Today we're balancing work and fun everywhere between the Pacific and Atlantic. From hiking and cycling to tacos and coffee, we're trying to see and experience as much of this world as we can! While our home is currently on wheels in our DIY Sprinter van, our travels take us all around the world.
