Dutch history is FAR more interesting than Nicaraguan or US history. What I dislike? I have to wait a year before I move there and visit/meet family. Also, it's geography. I'm going to miss mountains. And trees, for that matter - too many cities/people in that country the size of friggin' West Virginia. 2. As for Nicaragua, what I like: The geography, the food, the culture, the friendliness of the people. Childhood memories. It's a beautiful country. What I dislike: It's poor. REALLY poor. Social inequality, corrupt government. Relatively uneducated population. 3. What I like about the US: Some people, the cities, the media and technological freedom. It's vast, and multicultural. What I dislike about the US: The economy, the annoying media, very stereotypical to minorities, you have to own a car to get to interesting places, the rising inequality within the population. The distinct lack of original culture. I can't wait to leave. >_< |
When I was in Nicaragua and I told them I was from Spain, several people asked me if I had gone by bus.

Wow, really? I never encountered anything like that.
I mean, with it being a Spanish colony I'd assume everyone at least KNEW where Spain was; even withoutan education you'd at least learn it culturally. Where did you visit?

León, Granada, Managua (just a few hours), Ometepe and a town next to Río San Juan, I don't remember the name. These people were from a small village near León, I also don't remember the name, lol.
Edit: Ok, the small town near León was Malpaisillo and the town next to Río San Juan was San Carlos.
