Maible Matrishon
My name is Maible Matrishon. I am 9 years old. I live in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada. For the past two years my mom, my brother and I have been coming down to stay in Bocas Del Toro, Panama during the winter months. My stepdad owns an island, where we spend time when we are here. Because we have so many funny and adventurous things that happen to us down here, I thought that it would be a great place about which to write a story.
