I am a retired registered nurse, married to my Catracho for almost 25 years. When we were married, many people said it was a 'green card marriage'. Twenty-five years later, he is an American citizen and I have a Honduran green card.
We moved to Trujillo, Colon, a small town on the North Coast of Honduras in November 2009 to retire. Because I had been here many times, I did not think I would have to cope with much culture shock. I was wrong.
I enjoy reading, needlework, counted cross stitch and teaching myself beading techniques. I write about my life in Honduras, building our new house, family, and other things in general. Sometimes I rant about things, especially the injustices in life.

Nos mudamos a Trujillo, Colón, un pequeño pueblo en la costa norte de Honduras en noviembre de 2010 para retirarnos. Como yo había estado aquí muchas veces, no pensé que tendría que hacer frente a un gran choque cultural. Me equivoqué.
Me gusta sentarme en el balcón, disfrutar de la vista, la lectura, la costura, cruzeta y aprender técnicas de joyería. Escribo sobre mi vida en Honduras, la construcción de nuestra nueva casa, la familia y otras cosas en general. A veces despotrico sobre cosas, sobre todo las injusticias de la vida.

She has been living in Honduras since 2005 but began her work in Honduras in 1991.

In My Utila Life I discuss the ups and downs of beach front construction and Honduran home ownership, renting vacation homes, scuba diving, nature, my boat, the locals, the gringo's, restaurant reviews, Utila Town, and my travels around the Honduran mainland. Midlife crises for some men involve fast cars and/or an affair with a younger woman, mine involved a slow boat, an incredibly patient wife, and a gorgeous beach, it's my Utila life ......... as I see it.
