El Salvador to Honduras, Central America || Busted

I like travelling when I’m travelling but even so, today was a long, long day of Central American cross-border (chicken) bus travel. It’s 11 p.m. on June 5, 2013, & I’m in a city called Santa Rosa de Copan, the largest city in western Honduras...

Suchitoto, El Salvador, Central America

In the taxi this morning en route to the bus terminal in San Salvador, El Salvador’s capital, I had a basic (& I mean basic) conversation with the jovial taxi driver. He garnered enough from me to know I was headed for Suchitoto, a small town about 50...

Parque Nacional Los Volcanes, El Salvador

Now this is more like it. Having hardly laid my eyes on any of Guatemala’s 30 volcanoes, let alone scaled one, I was determined to take a run at the first volcano I saw here in El Salvador. So I did just that. All it took was an hour-&-a-bit on a bus from Santa...

I haven’t yet ventured too far as yet in El Salvador and not venturing too far in Central America’s smallest but most densely populated country really isn’t venturing too far at all. En route to El Salvador. Day 448. http://t.co/YXaH9p8A24 #travel #blog...
