In honor of my upcoming trip, links to Guatemala information:
– Mayan ruins!
– Contemporary art by Mario Madriz
– Oil paintings by Mayans at Arte Maya Tz’utuhil!
It’s strange to me that I’ve never been to Central America (not even Mexico) but have spent so much time in India. My Hindi is better than my Spanish, but a four-hour flight is much more appetizing than a ten-hour one. I’ll primarily be in Antigua, taking in the festivities surrounding Semana Santa. If you’d like to meet up, or have any great tips for me, fire away! Trip is somewhat inspired by Xeni Jardin.

Looking forward to your posts on Guatemala — there’s a HUGE difference in India and South America, so, whichever way, 10-hour-flight or 4-hour one, it’ll be a grand experience!
