About Me

My photo
Hi, my name is Maren Talcott. I am 22 years old, and I just graduated Washington State University with a degree in Elementary Education and minor in Spanish. My passion is teaching... I love children! I was born in Minnesota, but spent all of my life growing up in Washington. My dream is to become a kindergarten teacher, and inspire children to love learning! I have done little to no traveling in my lifetime outside of the United States. My goal for this blog is to keep my family, friends, and loved ones up to date on my experiences. I will be living in Guatemala for three months, Jan.-March 2014. I will be volunteering at the Opal House School near Lake Atitlan. The reason for traveling to Guatemala is to have the experience of a lifetime, and improve my Spanish! This journey will push me out of my comfort zone, and open my eyes to a whole new world. I know that I will show my love and compassion to the guatemalan people every single day, and hope that I can impact their lives as much as I know they will impact my own.

GO SEAHAWKS!!

GO HAWKS!!

Tomorrow we have "una sita" (reservation) at a bar in Panajachel to watch the Super Bowl game!! I am seriously so excited that we get to watch it in Guatemala! Its going to be quite an experience, and I am very interested to see the crowd that attends as well. Proud to say I am from Seattle! It is a little difficult to explain to Jackelyn in Spanish why I am so excited and why this is such a big deal!!


Super Bowl 2014 Here We Come!!!
