Around 3 times a week we go on activities, and a few of us have paid for extra trips too. Butterfly and seed collecting, walks around the laguna seeing monkeys and birds, trips to nearby towns and museums, a fiesta in Masaya with lots of dancing and ... Read more >

Nicaragua is a very religious country - the state is very much tied to the catholic church. As such it has great laws such as no abortions - not even in the case of a raped child. It's a common scenario here, so it's fortunate that there aren't illegal ... Read more >

I was looking forward to Granada, described by some as the jewel of
Nicaragua - my first impressions aren't so good though. A heaving
market, lots of rubbish, squashed vegetables and fruit in the street, a
jostling crowd dodging fume spewing vehicles, ... Read more >

A small island made up of two volcanoes in the middle of a big, freshwater lake that contains bull sharks - it sounds a bit surreal right? I couldn't miss the opportunity to see this place, my mistake was heading for the beach area called Santo Domingo.... Read more >

My blog is an edited, condensed account of what has happened on my trip. I miss out a lot of stuff as it's long enough already, and besides i forget a lot of things because I've been travelling a while, and most things become normal - hence not worthy ... Read more >

It's a not as quick as it should be jeep-boat-jeep journey to Monteverde as we have to pick a man up on a horse? You have to say jeepboatjeep as quickly as you can like the locals so they understand you - my Spanish is improving no end. Arriving to ... Read more >

Arenal volcano is the most captive one in Costa Rica - it was a tough decision to come here and not head east to climb Costa Rica's highest one - Cerro Chirripo. After an easy 4.5 hour, $3.5 bus ride and I'm liking my choice. Arenal is one of those ... Read more >

A fair chunk of my time has been spent either moping or trying to locate Bob. As the airport never answers the phone i have little luck with the latter. I'm also a bit fed up from wearing the same clothes for over 2 days. I can't say that i like ... Read more >

How do you spend your last few days in a place that has become like a second home? You are aware that soon you´ll be in dorms again, sharing your personal space with strangers, that you´ll become a master toilet inspector and a connoisseur of bad smells.... Read more >

Well, I've been travelling over 18 months now and i thought I'd better let you know how I'm doing and show you a couple of pictures to ease your mind. I've spent the last month sleeping on an air mattress in the apartment of a male nurse. I don't think ... Read more >
