Hola! This time...beautiful Copan ruins!!! After Palenque in Mexico and Tikal in Guatemala it was time for a bit smaller Copan ruins, but with much, much more details! Lovely! As one of the greatest treasures of art and architecture in the Americas, Copán is known for its beautiful temples, altars and stelae. The stelae are three to five meters tall and two to three meters around. Carved in extremely intricate high relief, they are portraits of the greatest rulers in the history of the city. Many are round on one side (the figure side) and flat on the other. The flat [View Full Entry]

Hola amigos ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Since I know that most of you don't know much about El Salvador I will make a short introduction about the smallest Central America's country. Actually it's a bit similar to my Slovenia. It's small - almost the same size as Slovenia, but with a population of 7 million people it's "a bit" more populated. El Salvador emerged from a decade-long civil war not so long ago and on a top of that various natural disasters (like earthquakes, hurricanes, ...) are still (tooooo) often. Beside natural disasters Salvadorans have [View Full Entry]

Holaaaaaa amigos :) YES! Now I admit it! I'm a bit crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know that some of u already know that but still...now it's official. For those who are still wondering why...keep reading... We decided to go to Quetzaltenango, or for short, "Xela" cause we met two funny australian guys in Mexico...they told us for Santa Maria volcano which is 3772m high and can be climbed year round! Its eruption in 1902 was one of the three largest eruptions of the 20th century! And why did we wanted to hike it? Cause it is possible to climb to the top of [View Full Entry]

Hola amigos :) A LOT happened in the past month...YES - we are now in Guatemala for more than a month and we like it a LOT!!! First there was Tikal - the national pride of Guatemala...massive pyramids in the middle of the jungle! We spent a whole day there just walking around and observing... :) Tikal is basically one of the largest archaeological sites and urban centers of the pre-columbian maya civilization. The ruins lie among lowland rainforest and among them live many monkeys, parrots, toucans, foxes and even jaguars which can be seen regularly. Then there was the very [View Full Entry]

Who wouldn't wanna see the caribbean sea & swim with turtles, sharks, sting rays and...well I don't know about u guys, but I WANTED to do&see that! After huge Mexico we decided to go to the bit smaller Belize with (only) 320,000 people, located on the caribbean coast of northern Central America. It is the only country in Central America where english is the official language, but kriol and spanish are also widely spoken. We spent a week at Caye Caulker - a small island with a relaxing scene and met some very, very nice people (mostly canadians, americans and germans) [View Full Entry]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW... Bubbles, blueness, fishes in all kinds of colours&shapes, corals...it is like swimming in the most diverse aquarium that u can imagine!!! I was amazed. We decided to spend our last 2 weeks on the beaches of Thailand. Great decision - especially after months in India. We wanted to dive a little bit, so we picked Koh Tao island which is well known among divers. We weren't dissapointed...just the opposite :) Instead of one week we spent there 2 weeks...and wanted to stay even longer and longer and longer...Koh Thao is one of those places where we could spend much, [View Full Entry]
