Hola everyone!

Thank you all so much for responding to my request!

Currently, I am in Palenque, Mexico- 2 days away from crossing the
border and trying to beat the heat!

To the folks and projects in Guatemala, I will contact about visiting as
soon as I have my next rest break, in Flores. To the folks and projects
in the rest of Central America, I will contact as I approach the sites.

Hope to meet you all soon!

Gracias y que te vaya bien!
