In honor of my childhood I am currently drafting up a story for children. It will be in the local language. I dreamed the characters up one day!

Aruba has a combination of rugged and pristine landscapes hugging its domain. On one side there are the rock formations and the volcanic shore lines, mostly known for body boarding and visiting unusual ponderous rock mounds. On the other there are the beaches, with their palm trees and touristic attractions.

It is in the first area, where I grew up. Running on red earth decorated with cacti and diverse shrubs. Free goats and donkeys roamed the place at times, but mainly the silence prevailed, and it is in this area where I set the first of the different series of the adventures of a curious little girl... or is she a girl?

I'm having a lot of fun writing it because I can relive my own adventures in that scenery. Please stay tuned for more information on this project.
