Welcome to our blog!

This is the blog of the UT Maymester study abroad program to Guatemala and Belize! Welcome to all the students who arrived on May 31st to spend the next four weeks studying and experiencing Maya culture, from the ancient past to contemporary times. Follow us through excursions and adventures as we make our way across Central America from the volcanic highlands of Guatemala and the Pacific coast, to the jungles of the tropical lowlands and the Caribbean coast of Belize. Here are all our students at the welcome dinner on June 1st: read their bios on our contributors page, and keep up with posts over the next several weeks!
