our story

As a teenager, I remember feeling as though time
was an infinite resource. It is hard to believe that
more than three decades have come and gone.

Nowadays time is running faster than ever before,
with our children at the centerstage,
and their needs as our main thought.

From food and shelter,
to academics and recreation,
to decision making and critical thinking.

While practicing employee development and training within
the manufacturing sector, I became fascinated by the similarities
that exist between life in the workplace and life at home.
I was certain my kids would want to learn all about them.

Needless to say, I was wrong.

I'm often reminded that youth are not always in the mood
of listening to long explanations, such as the benefits of
using standard operating procedures when taking cooking
and driving lessons.

This is why we created saccotaco,
to make our insights available,
in the form of compact fiction stories,
for whenever the right mood arrives;
even if it takes several years for the right mood to show up.

Our goal is to share our life's most valuable lessons.

We believe life is more than work and school,
more than appetites and rest.

We believe human development and sincere friendships
are the essence of our existence.

Life depends as much on measurable objects
as it depends on intangible events.

In life, learning mathematics is just as important
as it is learning honesty.

Life is gratitude for exciting adventures
as well as appreciation for daily routines.

Life is about understanding each other,
learning from each other,
living with each other.

We all know life has a myriad of faces,
our hope is that saccotaco will help you smile at many of them.
