Hi again:) I want to share a few pics from the lovely Dominican beach we’ve been playing beside, and inside, for the past couple of days. Sofia is playing in the ocean here with one of her new friends, Ava. The water is perfect: Aquamarine, warm, clear, soothing. Here I am in the pool with […]

After our family attended the Monday night group meeting in Santo Domingo, we stayed overnight and then drove about 90 minutes outside of the city to an area called Bayahibe, known as a quaint fishing village with some of the best beaches in the country. We decided to stay in another “all inclusive” hotel. I’d […]
This is a bit hard to see, but worth peering into the photo a bit. On our way to school, I was telling you about the many kids that hitch a ride to town, down the pot-filled rain and soggy dirt road. This truck has picked up – I’m not quite sure, I couldn’t get […]
With an enormous amount of help from Lisa, my US based organizer friend and right arm, and many conversations and brainstorm sessions with Katiuska, I want to announce that as of yesterday, September 22, my baby corporation was born. She weighs zero pounds and zero ounces thus far, so there’s only one way to go: […]
Quick Hi! Just wanted to share a few moments of my foreign Self in a different country where I don’t speak the language and don’t know all of the customs yet.

Field of hopes…field of dreams…field of screens…You know how I keep saying that we are trying to expand the eco-conscious retreat business here so that we may help support a growing, self-sustained permaculture community? Well, keep that bookmarked in your mind, even if I don’t talk about it all the time. Creating the marketing tools […]
I see that it’s been five days since my last post…HI out there! … I would write ten thousand pages to you, if I could type that fast. Or just one word. Either way, I have right now, to be with you. It seems that we have taken another step into the rainforest, another level […]
Here are three more pics..today I wasn’t able to upload them on my own..two steps forward, one step back, such is life! Hubby helped, but I keep watching and learning, wtf is he doing to be able to get these pics placed here?!?! Anyway: I took this pic above, over the past weekend, of one […]
Wow: Out of pure desperation and true grit…I want to humbly announce that this photo is The First Pic of my Life that I somehow just uploaded to offthegridmama. So far, I have waited for Hubby’s presence to be able to ever post a pic here. He has uploaded each one for me. Today I […]
Hola, my faithful friends! Sofia and Michelle have done very well in their first week at the Escuela..Sofia bounds in and out each day. Michelle, more cautious to warm up, (and the one I peek at the most via the window), is taking it all in. We were driving in this morning and I said […]
