Nicaragua landscapes consist in a mix of beautiful beaches, volcanoes, lakes, green, tropical forests and colorfull cities !
In addition, you will meet animals everywhere, speak Spanish and travel by tuk tuk bikes, horses, motorbikes, chicken bus (old school buses) 🙂
Food is simple & ok (but definitely not the best I’ve seen), for the breakfast, you will get gallopinto (mix of beans and rice), eggs, breads and some fruits and you will drink fruit juice and of course Tona (local beer) !
They like baseball, you can find baseball fields even in the smaller cities.
