Landslide in Guatemala Hits Coffee-Growing Area

I saw this story, “More than 30 dead in Guatemala landslide,” in the news on Monday. It hit home for me since I did a couple marketing lessons in the town of San Cristobal Verapaz at a coffee cooperative during my Peace Corps service and I traveled that road a number of times. It says that most of those who died were on their way to harvest coffee.

There’s also coverage of the story on the Prensa Libre Web site (in Spanish).
