Panama A country pretty different from Costa Rica. A country with a huge divergence between the well heeled and all others. Our trip – a mix of tropical islands with turquoise water for snorkeling and green hills for hiking.
The trip from the hot Pacific Coast to the humid Caribbean. On the way some of the highest volcanoes of Costa Rica.
A visit to some national parks in Costa Rica’s jungle. Maybe not the pristine rainforest you may except. Rather a kind of well-developed wilderness for poor tourists searching for their ultimate nature adventure.
After 10 months of asylum in Swizzyland we’re back in Costa Rica. To continue our trip to Punta Arenas. No idea how far we’ll get. Probably these coronies will tell us.
A short trip to Costa Rica during Corona times. Who the hell would be crazy enough to do that. Well, overlanders having to save their vehicle from confiscation by smart, but powerful locals. Thus, a trip to save Prado and a few days to visit some places in the country. And an opportunity to sit in a plane for more than 12h each way.
Along Nicaragua’s western part. Some volcanoes to sneak around. Then traveling around is getting more complicated. Corona starts to hit Central America. Everything starts to close down. We quickly leave Nicaragua for Costa Rica, prepare our early departure and we’re on the way to Swizzyland. To wait for the end of this mess.
A journey thru Nicaragua’s West. Somoto and Selva Negra. Some remnants of the war against dictator Somoza. Then to Leon: the great colonial town.
The car repaired – we’re back on our journey. To El Salvador’s top sight: Volcano Santa Ana. Then the trip to the country’s civil war-torn provinces to Honduras and on to Nicaragua.
Thru January and February 2020 we visited Guatemala for about 3 weeks.
Here our practical information about the country for overlanders.
