Well I have had the most eventful day ever and an unexpected extra destination added to my itinary! Yesterday I left San Pedro Sula early in the morning for my flight to Guatemala which went through El Salvador. I was meant to just be there for one night before my flight up to LA which was meant to go from Guatemala City today. Then Pacaya happened. It is a very active volcano in Guatemala, which some of you who follow my blogs may remember I climbed when I was ...

I was just thinking the other day, that it's really funny living in a house which has air conditioning in every room, but doesn't have any radiators! Total opposite to England! Haha. So as I am coming to the end of my time in Honduras, and think over my time here, it has been pretty cool all in all!

Instead I'm going to head up to North America to stay with family for a couple of months. I finished teaching at the school in San Rafael last week and made my way up to ...

The day after seeing the ruins in Copan, I was meant to go for a 3 hour hike in the nearby hills at 8am, but I was so exhausted, from the heat I imagine, that I didn't bother. The thing is that in Copan, there really is not a lot to do! I ended up just going to the internet when I finally woke up and having a good catch up with my long lost best friends!
