Description
I am Canadian, my wife Beronica is Maya and our children are 11 and 13 years old. We have a cocoa plantation and export ceremonial cocoa and fine chocolate. Our children follow the CNED distance program (French system). Our life is out of the ordinary and we have been welcoming au pairs and volunteers for a long time to share our adventures
