I am a fourth-generation islander, born in West End village where I spent a dreamy childhood during a time when Roatan was still yet an “undiscovered” paradise-but for intrepid scuba divers and occasional adventurer.   In the late 1980s, we moved to the USA where I completed my secondary and then university education.  It being the case that; “you can take the girl off the island, but you can’t take the island out the girl,” each summer I faithfully returned to help my dad run his small family cabin retreat and enjoy my beloved mangoes.
