Last summer I spent a month in Guatemala--3 weeks with my foreign exchange sister (who had spent 3 months with me the previous year) and 1 week with my traveling group going to a spanish school and doing some community service. And to those of you who live in holes, Guatemalans do not live in trees. -_-

Has anyone else here been, or even lives/ed in a Central/South American country? I would love to share my experiences with those who care, I love Guatemala so much.

Here is a few pictures from Tikal in Guatemala, absolute best views in the world and pictures do not give it justice:

^Star Wars anyone? XD
Photo
^The famous Mayan temple, and that pit in the middle of the open space is where they sacraficed humans. Fun stuff. And the huts you see are there to protect artifacts.
Photo
^The branch is huge, like, taller than a 6 foot human. Bigger than that.

I'd love it if you shared some pictures with me from your travels, and if anyone wants to see some pictures of some oddities I experienced then please post as such. <3

The farthest I've ever gotten out of the US was the Bahamas.

I lived in Costa Rica for a few months back when I was about eleven.

My dad was teaching some classes for ISA [International Studies Abroad]. We lived in apartments during the week, and on weekends we'd all pile on a bus to spend the weekend seeing a different part of the country.

The whole experience was pretty cool.

I lived in Argentina and Chile for a total of 5 and a half months. Visited Uruguay while I was there too. My favorite places to be was in Buenos Aries, Argentina and Pichilemu, Chile. I love it down there, can't wait to get back.
The one thing I really want to do is backpack around Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay and maybe up into Brazil. Take a good 6 months to do it, but it would be a blast!!!!

El Salvador rocks. It is beautiful and the people are amazing. And I love their tortillas.
