Ometepe, is a stunning island formed by two volcanoes emerging from Lake Nicaragua. Its name is derived from the Nahuatl words OME (two) and TEPETL (mountain), representing the powerful duality of nature. Inspired by our indigenous roots from Venezuela and the teachings of our ancestors from Nicaragua, my husband and I have chosen to name our entrepreneurship after this magnificent island. To represent the strength and resilience that as Queer Black Latinx couple we have. San Francisco is where we found home, but we want to spread a wellness community accessible to everyone all over the globe by elevating Nature in every piece of our hand crafted products.
