I've been in Guatemala since December 3rd working on documentaries. I have half a mind to stay here because the people are very friendly (son muy amables).
Wow. I'm so jealous of all these amazing places hubskiers are! veen to Hong Kong. All the Aussies/Kiwis talking about their fun summers! Whoever goes on the next amazing trip better kidnap me and take me with them! Have a great time and enjoy every second! Take lots of photos but don't forget to experience the moments with your own eyes as well.
I really enjoyed my time in Guatemala. Where are you? I spent a few days in Guatemala City and a week or so in Antigua. Antigua was amazing. I wish I could have spent more time exploring, it was a beautiful country and the people were very kind. Enjoy your stay B_C, be safe.
We spent about a week in San Lucas Toliman, we're in Totonicapan now, then we'll be in Chimaltenango and then Antigua.
From what I've gathered via wikipedia, Totonicapan is known for it's hot springs, you plan on taking a dip? It looks like a really beautiful place: I am very envious. Enjoy!
I was on that mountain where the picture was taken. If you go up even higher, you reach the tallest part of Guatemala where you're able to see the Pacific Ocean on one side and Mexico on the other. I don't think we're going to make it out to the spring unfortunately. Our days have been full of gathering b-roll and conducting interviews.
