Five Days In

It´s hard to complain about anything that has been happening lately. Our average day goes something like this:

8:00 wake up and drink complimentary Nicaraguan coffee while playing with a spoiled, white, poodle named Bear. We eat a breakfast of eggs, gallo pinto and fresh fruit while the breeze blows in through the open windows.
10:00 walk around town for a bit, purchase some tortillas and bananas from the market around the corner. Pack a bag and head to the beach.
5:30 watch the sunset and then get home from the beach. Eat a 2 dollar dinner of fish, more gallo pinto, fried plantains and vegetables.
8:00 shower in our funny looking shower and then relax until we fall asleep.

Beers are a dollar, bottles of aged rum cost 2 dollars and 50 cents and you can sit at a cabana on the beach and eat delicious food for the price of fast food in the states.

The ONLY things that are hard to get used to are the language barrier and the fact that you can´t flush toilet paper.



life is perfect.
