I'm a teacher and also I organized the Belize Butterfly Cooperative, which raises and exports tropical butterflies for international exhibits. I'm currently traveling, but my friends Eugenia and Marlon Fajardo are currently hosting guests on the farm. Eugenia does great local dishes. People are especially fond of her fry jacks.
