Great Story! Hi! I just wanted to write and say thanks for your story and for sharing your experience in Honduras! I'm heading there to backpack through next month and gleaned some great information and great ideas from your experiences. Sounds like you had a great (and interesting!) adventure and I'm looking forward to the same! Take care and happy travels!
zacatecas wow!!! u visit some of the places i grew up in!!! im actually frmo guadalupe zacatecas the p;ce where u where eatting TUNAS! i recognized righgt away its near a bus station n behind a church!!!! did u like guadalupe zacatecas???
Very interesting to come across this entry, while looking for photos to send home to Pennsylvania of pacaya. We just cooked some, actually from La Nueva Florida, envuelto en huevo, for our dinner! We go to La Florida occasionally, as we have some Guatemalan friends there. Sounds like the same place - after Colomba, wind down and then back up a gorge to arrive at the Finca, right? The carefully done by hand stone roads are all torn out, in preparation to pave the whole entrance through the gorge.
I don't recognize any of the names in your post. I only know a handful of folks there.
Actually, my favorite color is red! Many years ago, when I decided to open a hostel in David City, people asked me, "What is there to see in David City? Isn't it just a boring, hot city that one should avoid at all costs? There's nothing to do!" So I knew I needed to "create" a tourist attraction that would perhaps get people here in the first place (and then hopefully, people would see what a GREAT city David is and then they would decide to stay a bit longer.... Thus was born, THE PURPLE HOUSE INTERNATIONAL BACKPACKERS' HOSTEL, and yes, everything is purple and purple lovers from all over the globe come to visit and take pictures of our lovely purple palace. So I guess the plan worked, but unfortunately, many people assume that my favorite color is purple and that I am personally obsessed with purple. Not true! I am partial to black...being a New Yorker...., but since that is not a color, my vote is for red!
Thanks for the blog mention and happy travels!

And im soooo jealous of your road trip in Panama, I hadn't enough time for it and also some other factors which made it more difficult to do some more travelling and hiking...

Stop pretending to enjoy yourself.. Look Zoe, you don't have to keep up this ridiculous act of enjoying yourself - just admit defeat and come back to work!
Failing this, let's have more foodie descriptions - quite fancy some little fatties.
Want me to post a blanket out to you?
