Nearly 50 of these are inhabited, home to friendly communities. These islands are part of Guna Yala, where the Guna people live happily by the Caribbean Sea. We were lucky enough to become friends with a Guna completely by chance. One day, an indigenous person paddled up to us in a canoe and asked if we could charge their phones because the generator on their island had broken down. Over the next few days, Patrick paddled over to us, and we charged their phones while getting to know them better. Of course, I mentioned that we collect recipes from around the world, and one day Patrick invited us to eat dinner with them on their island, promising to teach us how to cook local food.
