As a Guatemalan, I enjoy everything colorful. That’s how I connect with the Lombok neighborhood in Utrecht, through all its colors. My family and I have been living in The Netherlands since 2019. We decided to move to the Netherlands with our teenage sons so that they broaden their horizons and their world view. Deep inside, it was also my long-time wish to live in Europe. My husband is a wise man: happy wife, happy life. To maintain my bond with my home country and enjoy the best of both worlds, I have a travel company that specializes in organizing trips to Guatemala called ‘Let’s Go to Guatemala’. We live very close to Lombok, and during the last three years, my life has been encompassed in the area around Lombok. Becoming an intercultural companion with Migrantour allowed me to learn about different perspectives and the history of immigration in the Netherlands and share my own personal story.
