About Me

My photo
I am a bohemian nomad, someone who acts and lives free of regard for conventional rules and practices, but also one who moves according to the seasons. After traveling to over 100 countries and all 7 continents over the past 12 years I feel that I truly subscribe to the words of Mary Poxon, who said. "I sought to see the amazing as normal and the daily as unique, and in that swirling paradox I found the joy of travel." I will be forever in pursuit of new sights and adventures and hope that maybe I can convince a few more to give budget travel a chance. Budget travel gives those with little money an opportunity to travel and those with money an opportunity to travel longer.

Antigua revisited (Last Post)

Monday August 16, 2010

An incredible 70 days traveling through Central America (Costa Rica, Guatemala, southern Mexico, Belize, Honduras and El Salvador). I enjoyed the people of each country especially El Salvador. All countries were beautiful but Guatemala is truly magnificent and probably the next destination for travel with my family. With beautiful Antigua ( which is enough alone),  Lake Atitlan (one of most beautiful lakes in the world), and Tikal (magnificent Mayan ruins) just to name a few, there is enough to consume as long as you want to stay. It is very inexpensive and as opposed to Costa Rica, the shuttles are inexpensive. Shuttles in Guatemala are between $5-$10 a person depending on where you are going instead of $35-$45 per person in Costa Rica. Guatemala also provides easy access to either southern Mexico, Belize, Honduras or El Salvador. Convinced that Guatemala should be at the top of everyone's travel destinations due to diversity, beauty and inexpensive cost. Flight home tomorrow .
