I'm Sonni Slimm, and in 2021, I moved from Washington, DC, to Livingston, Guatemala, to live among the Garifuna people. This journey has been life-changing, filled with cultural immersion and self-discovery. I've documented their vibrant music, dance, cuisine, and spiritual traditions, captivated by their rich heritage. Living here has reshaped my dreams, and now, I invite you to join me as we explore LaBuga and beyond—come along for the ride!
