San Salvador, El Salvador || People Watching
Today I took another stroll around San Salvador, El Salvador’s capital & Central America’s second largest city. I got brave, or at least braver than I was yesterday – I did bring a (proper) camera with me. And with little in the way of monuments...
San Salvador, El Salvador || An Introduction
I like cities. I always have. And having spent the last four nights soaking in the charming tranquillity of the mountain villages of Juayúa & Ataco in western El Salvador, I was looking forward to the obvious change of pace that a few nights in the El Salvadorian...
Concepción de Ataco, El Salvador, Central America
Concepción de Ataco is, after Juayúa, my second and last stop on the Ruta de Las Flores in western El Salvador. It’s yet another picturesque El Salvadorian colonial town, one awash with brightly painted street walls to complement the requisite cobbled streets,...

Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala
The last of the central highland Mayan villages I visited during this trip to Guatemala was Santiago Atitlan, a 90-minute boat ride across Lake Atitlan, Central America’s deepest lake, from my base in Pana. Time for a boat ride on Lago de Atitlan Day 445...
