Hola! A little entry to tell you that: After Xela we were around Lago de Atitlan. It's a MAJOR touristic location so for us it was quite a SHOCK. Sooooo many tourists, locals pushing to sell you stuff and all the possible restaurant and bars... But then, as we ate fairly BASIC since we are in Guatemala, we were VERY Happy to eat: Malaysian Curry Wood-oven-baked-Pizza Vegeterian Crepes Tofu-burgers Soyamilk Fruit shakes AND most important of all for Nadja: LATTE MACCHIATO and CAPUCINO's!!!!! Later on we decided to go to a more relaxed and "authentic" place: San Marcos La Laguna. [View Full Entry]

Hola!!!!! Yesterday, we slept at the top of the huge Volcano, just next to the smaller active one, that you can see in the picture!!!!!!!!!!!! But let's go back a bit in time.... After the roughness of Huehuetenango, we went to still rough conditions to investigate about mining in Guatemala. But after that Nadja was completely exhausted, tired, fed up with bad sleeping, rotten beds, monotonous food, the cold and bad weather.... and it was also slowly getting to me, and I am here only 2 months, but for Nadja, it's for already 6 months that she is living in the [View Full Entry]

Here we are again in a city!!!!! Huehuetenango... It's so off the beaten track that it's not even listed in the region list of travelblog! And this is the city, we were HOURS away from here in the most remote villages of the Huehuetenango-region. Let's say it's "le trou du cul du monde". But it was a VERY interesting experience, living with the local indigenas, just as indigenas, with NO tourist facility. It's in these very villages that Nadja worked as a volunteer for 3 months. And now we were back for our trip, with some presents of chocolate from Belgium [View Full Entry]

Hola Amig@s, So first Ì'll tell you that here they use the sign "@", to write o and a at the same time so: Amig@s = Amigas y Amigos! I was talking about a secret destination, well our "secret" guide did not show up!!! So we couldn't go and so we changed our plans and moved on to Coban. From there we went to Semuc Champey, wich are wounderfull pounds and waterfalls. We had also a contact person there, that could help us to meet local Qeq·chi indigenas, but we had soooo little time we could not do much. The area [View Full Entry]

We have a few minutes b4 we will be leaving for Tikal, so Frederic is downloading some photos for the blog and I'm "allowed" to write on his blog. ;) As Frederic said, we have had 5 days of continuous PISS weather, but we were lucky that we only saw the rainy side of the tropical storm...! First, we spent a few days in Livingston, the Carribean side of Guatemala and a place where the Garifuna people live. Garifuna are black people (descendants of African slaves brought to the Carribean), but have a specific language and culture, different from other Carribean [View Full Entry]

Hi! A quick note to tell you we had about 5 days of continuous tropical rain!!! There was a Hurricane with tropical depression in Costa Rica called Alma and apparently now there is one called Arturo in the Yucatan. We are just in the middle of these location so we got A LOT of rain! It started in Livingston, Carribean town. So we moved on hoping to avoid the rain but it is all over Guatemala and even in most of Central America. Today it seems dryer, but still between 85 en 99% of humidity and temperatures around 25 degrees. Voila, [View Full Entry]
