The juice place in Estelí. Site of many a-morning conversations with my co-instructor. I was a big fan of the #6: Banana, Milk & Peanut Butter.

Doughnuts at Yusvar.

The latrine with the inspiring view. Unfortunately spiders liked to hang out on the latrine seat.

In El Lagartillo, my sheets happened to match my journal!

One of Vicente's dogs in La Grecia. He has 2 pit bull puppies. This is the little guy. His sister hung out on the other side of the house. They were so fun and adorable. I miss Norma!
