  • I get asked a lot of questions about how we met, and why we choose to live in El Salvador. Today we are spilling all the tea and answering your questions. Thank you for taking a trip down memory lane with us.
    I met Carlos 11 years ago at work here in El Salvador. We were friends immediately and slowly grew into soulmates. He is the world´s best father and my perfect partner. A decade later and I still love him a little bit more every day.
    Moving to El Salvador with 4 suitcases to be a with a man I had known less than a year was terrifying and the best decision I have ever made.

    Me hacen muchas preguntas sobre cómo nos conocimos y por qué elegimos vivir en El Salvador. Hoy estamos derramando todo el té y respondiendo a tus preguntas. Gracias por hacer un viaje al pasado con nosotros.
    Conocí a Carlos hace 11 años en el trabajo aquí en El Salvador. Fuimos amigos de inmediato y poco a poco nos convertimos en almas gemelas. Es el mejor padre del mundo y mi pareja perfecta. Una década después y todavía lo amo un poco más cada día.
    Mudarse a El Salvador con 4 maletas para estar con un hombre al que había conocido menos de un año fue aterrador y la mejor decisión que he tomado.

    “Somos viajeros en un viaje cósmico, polvo de estrellas, girando y bailando en los remolinos y remolinos del infinito. La vida es eterna. Nos hemos detenido por un momento para encontrarnos, para encontrarnos, para amar, para compartir. Este es un momento precioso. Es un pequeño paréntesis en la eternidad ".

    Hola, soy Carol, y soy ThatExpatMom! Soy de California, pero elijo criar a mi familia en el hermoso El Salvador. Originalmente vine aquí por trabajo, pero me enamoré de un hombre, su hija y su país. Hice un gran acto de fe, vendí todo y vine a El Salvador con 3 maletas. 10 años 3 niñas después aquí estamos ... ¡una familia mezclada de 5!

    I was born in El Salvador but live in the US for the past forty years. I traveled to El Salvador for the first time in January of last year and reconnected with my childhood sweetheart and we recently got married and plan to move to El Salvador to live our lives together. I have to say that I’m the happiest that I’ve ever been. Thank You again for sharing your own story.

He proposed randomly while going out for dinner with me and my mom and I was translating for them, and he goes “ I will like to marry your daughter “, and I almost chocked on my steak and asked him, “ are you sure you want me to translate that?” 😂.
