Our guide was good - he had a combination of knowledge of the Mayan civilizations, local flora, fauna and animal life, and when he found out we were interested in the medicinal plants, made more of an effort to show us some with their use. This little ant is a tiger ant - has a nasty and toxic sting. Fortunately, I am relaying that information secondhand. He is about an inch long.

The adventure begins - dissolusioned with the USA, a 49 year old unfettered American woman is looking for a new home...
In April of 2005, I sold my house and most of my possessions, and decided to look around for a while to see what else there is for me in this life. Previously a fine artist, a web and graphic designer, I did seven years as a corporate project manager designing internet tools. Caught between unfulfillment, and disturbed by the direction my country of birth is taking, I'm seeking a life more harmonious with my values - living simply in a warm climate, more sustainably and gently on the planet.
