Nicaragua Day 2. Heading to La Chureca (city dump)
Today will be our first day in the dump. It has been what I consider oppressively hot, but everyone who lives here considers it cool. We had a great first day yesterday. We went to a wonderful church service in Managua, and it is amazing how different cultures, speaking different languages, can worship and pray [...]

First morning in Nicaragua
It’s 7am and I can’t believe I’m awake. But with the sounds of the country side it was hard to stay awake. Roosters don’t really care that I just arrived last night and need my beauty sleep. We were greeted by our hosts the Buzzbies and warned to search our beds and shoes for tarantulas [...]
