Zac<br />

After bartending at the Monoloco<br />

restaurant in La Antigua Guatemala<br />

for four years, Zac Ballentine is returning<br />

to the United States to enroll in college<br />

and perhaps work as a ski instructor in<br />

Colorado.<br />

“I love Antigua and I love the Monoloco.<br />

I could spend the rest of my life here, but I’m<br />

approaching 30 and I can’t do it forever,” he<br />

says. “I miss my family a lot, too – I have<br />

two fairly new nephews.”<br />

Before moving to Antigua from his<br />

native Minneapolis in September 2006, Zac<br />

had visited Guatemala twice, as his older<br />

brother was working at a nonprofit here.<br />

Zac learned of the Monoloco bartending<br />

job through his brother.<br />

“My most memorable experience was<br />

when my brother and I lived together; we<br />

overlapped here for a year. It made us so much<br />

closer. That first year was so much fun.”<br />

Zac’s first New Year’s was another<br />

memorable time. “It was incredible, I was<br />

blown away with how busy it was and how<br />

much fun it was.”<br />

And what will he miss most about<br />

Antigua?<br />

“Honestly, it’s going to the Monoloco<br />

and all the friends I met here—all the<br />

staff, the managers, the owners—because<br />

they’ve been so nice to me. I’ll miss the easy<br />

lifestyle, too.”<br />

And those many friends will miss him,<br />

too. ¡Qué le vaya bien!
