Motherhood Around the World Emily Gaudichon

Welcome to Episode 8 of Motherhood Around the World, a podcast that celebrates mums everywhere and dives into the nuance of parenting in different countries.
This week I spoke with Claudia, who lives in Guatemala with her husband and 3 girls. While chatting she had the excellent idea to share one of her favourite recipes, and I hope to continue to include that in future interviews.
This is the last episode of Season 1 but there will be two bonus episodes coming soon while I prepare for Season 2. If you’d like to be featured on the podcast please email motherhoodaroundtheworld@gmail.com letting me know where you live, where you grew up and a little bit about yourself.

(Please note this episode discusses infertility and access to abortion.)
Claudia’s Mango Pico de Gallo
* 2 mangos
* 2-3 tomatoes (Feel free to use more/less if you love tomatoes)
* Lemon juice
* Cilantro (better if you use fresh)
* 1 onion (I use a purple one for a subtler taste)
* Salt and pepper to taste
* Chop the mangos, tomatoes, onions and cilantro. Mix together and add the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Better if chilled before serving. You can serve it with tortilla chips and on top of a lettuce salad.
Bon appétit!
