From Guatemala to Alaska: Adapting to a new life | INDIE ALA

Season 6 Episode 9 | 4m 18s

Kimberly Mejía Gúzman moved from Guatemala to Anchorage.

Even though Spanish is widely spoken in Alaska, coming from a Spanish-speaking country is not as easy as it seems. At least it wasn't for Kimberly Mejía Gúzman and her family, who moved from Guatemala to Anchorage. Driven by the hope for new and better opportunities, Kimberly's family soon discovered how difficult it is to adapt to a new lifestyle far from home.
