A glimpse of my life over the last year...


San Ignatio de Loyola en Punta Gorda
The men and women wear traditional Garifuna clothing, speak Garifuna, and play Punta Music. It is a beautiful ceremony! In 1796, the Garifuna people arrived to the Island from Western Africa and now the majority of Garifuna on the Island live in Punta Gorda.
