After working in New York City advertising agencies for 17 years, Ann Woodward began travelling full-time in October 2011. She believes travel can be a powerful educational tool. Therefore she enjoys sharing her photos and stories in order to inspire others to travel as well as to help change common perceptions about places. She prefers to visit less-touristed areas, and by travelling slowly, she has more opportunities to learn about local cultures. Here’s a week-in-the-life of Ann – aka East Village Nomad – in Guatemala<\/a> and Honduras.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 1 \u2013 Tuesday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

7:15am <\/b> Eat breakfast at my hostel in Antigua, Guatemala and pack to leave for Rio Dulce in eastern Guatemala, best known as a \u2018hurricane hole\u2019 where sailors dock their boats during the Atlantic hurricane season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:40am<\/b> Skype with my mom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:10am<\/b> The shuttle service picks me up at my hostel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11:30am<\/b> The shuttle driver drops me off at a private bus station in Guatemala City and hands me an envelope of cash to buy a bus ticket. This is a surprise, since I expected the shuttle to take me directly to Rio Dulce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12noon<\/b> Call a guesthouse in Rio Dulce to enquire about available rooms and prices. The conversation is in Spanish. When I ask how long the bus ride will take, the woman on the phone switches to English. \u201cOh honey,\u201d she drawls. \u201cI have no idea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12:15pm <\/b> Eat lunch at the bus station snack stall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1pm <\/b> Bus leaves Guatemala City. Entertainment for the ride is Dr. Dolittle films 1, 2, 3, and Tail to the Chief, dubbed in Spanish and shown in succession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4:30pm<\/b> The elderly Guatemalan woman seated beside me has fielded several calls on her mobile phone, presumably from her family. From what I can gather, she has severely miscalculated the duration of her trip. She ends most conversations by screaming \u201cI am arriving!\u201d in Spanish. Also, she is completely hogging the arm rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:45pm<\/b> Arrive in Rio Dulce and walk to the guesthouse I called earlier in the day. It looks abandoned. A large \u2018closed\u2019 sign contributes to this vibe. When I call them again from the street, they tell me to kick the gate open and come in. Five sailors are drinking in the bar, which doubles as the reception area. I wonder what I\u2019ve gotten myself into.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m shown a private room that costs 60 quetzales<\/i> (less than $8), about 1\/3 the price I was quoted on the phone. The sheets look clean. I check the mattress for bed bugs; thankfully, it is also clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8pm <\/b> Return to the bar to order dinner. Patrons\/guests are playing guitar and singing bluesy songs. A light rain is falling on the roof. It all feels very Southern. I envision myself staying here at least a couple of days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9pm<\/b> Bond with the guesthouse manager, who happens to be from New Orleans. He cautions, \u201cDon\u2019t let the concrete fool you, we\u2019re in the jungle right now.\u201d Apparently scorpion and tarantula bites only feel like a bee sting, but some snakes here may kill me. Excellent bedtime story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:45pm <\/b> Take a photo of the Christmas tree on the town\u2019s main road. It looks like a Corona ad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"Christmas<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

Day 2 \u2013 Wednesday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

8:15am <\/b> The guesthouse is located directly on the river, with a lovely view of the water and sailboats. I\u2019m happy to be here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"ocean<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

9:30am<\/b> Realize I forgot to sign a health insurance claim I submitted a week ago. Call the insurance company, then walk into town to find a place to print the document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11am<\/b> Email revised paperwork to insurance company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12:30pm<\/b> Shower. The water is cold and seems to spray everywhere in the bathroom except inside the shower stall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1pm <\/b> Lunch at a nearby caf\u00e9, which is packed with sailors. Everyone seems to be drinking a beer or a cocktail, so apparently this is also happy hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2pm <\/b> Take a serious nap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4pm <\/b> Chat with the guesthouse managers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6pm <\/b>Share a beer with a Guatemalan hang-glider. Seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:30pm <\/b> Eat dinner and do some online research\/planning for my next destination, Honduras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9pm<\/b> I\u2019m in my room and done for the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 3 \u2013 Thursday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

7:30am <\/b> My plan is to take a boat ride down the river. However, according to the daily radio call between all the area boat and business owners, the forecast is 100% rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:15am <\/b> Rain is coming down, and I put on more layers of clothing because the temperature is dropping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10am <\/b> A French family with a car is driving to some nearby attractions, and I invite myself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11am <\/b> We drive past a Guatemalan man in a cowboy hat who\u2019s herding cattle. The French mother exclaims, \u201cThis is just like Texas!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our first stop is El Boqueron, where we take a small paddleboat tour through a canyon with rock formations. It\u2019s beautiful, but rain starts falling again as soon as we get into the boat. In better weather, you can explore caves in the canyon, but the rain makes the rocks incredibly slippery. I\u2019m content staying in the boat underneath my umbrella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next stop is a serene swimming hole near a hotel called El Finca Paraiso. It has hot waterfalls, but the surrounding pools are cold, making for a strange sensation. It\u2019s possible to stand underneath the falls for a massage from the water, and you can also duck into a sauna-like cave. The experience reminds me of an outdoor version of NYC\u2019s Russian & Turkish baths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"Hot<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

2:30pm <\/b> Return to town for lunch and sit with a group of travelers from Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4pm <\/b> Nap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6pm <\/b>Create a rough itinerary and budget for a trip to Cuba.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:30pm<\/b> When the guesthouse bar closes for the evening, I retire to my room to do some Kindle reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 4 \u2013 Friday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

8:45am<\/b> Decide to take speedboat ride to Livingston, a town on Guatemala\u2019s Caribbean coast that\u2019s one of only a few enclaves of Garifuna people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:30am <\/b> Boat picks me up at the guesthouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10:30am <\/b> After collecting other passengers, getting gas and cruising around a castle, we\u2019re on our way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"Castillo<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

10:32am <\/b> It starts raining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10:40am <\/b> Everyone in the boat is soaking wet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11:40am <\/b>We arrive in Livingston. I change into a dry T-shirt and walk around town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12:30pm <\/b> Eat lunch at the only place that seems to have any customers (or staff). The house band plays a few songs, then the members use their tip money to buy beers at the market directly across the street from the restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3pm <\/b> Head back to Rio Dulce. The return boat ride is much more enjoyable without rain! The trip to Livingston has satisfied my curiosity, although I didn\u2019t witness as much distinct Garifuna culture as I expected. I\u2019m glad I covered Livingston as a day trip vs. spending more time there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4:45pm <\/b> Arrive in Rio Dulce and talk to a bus company about departure times to Honduras. On the way back to my guesthouse, I pass the town\u2019s volunteer firefighters who are setting up for a fundraising party that involves raffling off a cow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"cow<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

6:30pm <\/b> Eat dinner with two documentary filmmakers also staying at my guesthouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:30pm <\/b> Look online for hotels in Copan, Honduras; the whole town seems to be sold out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 5 \u2013 Saturday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

6:45am <\/b> Wake up early, shower, have breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:30am <\/b> Call a hostel in Copan; they have room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:30am <\/b> Since I have a place to stay in Copan, I settle up my tab at the guesthouse, say goodbye to the managers, and walk to the bus station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:20am <\/b> Bus leaves. It\u2019s an overcrowded, un-airconditioned coach. I\u2019m one of several people standing in the aisle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:24am <\/b> Someone\u2019s bag bounces out of the overhead bin onto my head. Ow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10:30am <\/b> I get a seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12noon <\/b> Buy some cashews from a lady on the side of the road during a pit stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1:30pm <\/b> Bus empties out except for me and a honeymooning Italian couple also going to Copan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2:30pm <\/b> Change from a full-size bus into a buseta<\/i>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3:45pm <\/b>Arrive at the Honduras border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4:30pm <\/b> After border formalities, share a pick-up truck to town with the Italians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5pm <\/b> Check into my hostel, where I discover only four lockers for the entire property, and they\u2019re already taken. This is a problem, but I don\u2019t feel like looking for another place to stay. I\u2019m tired and hungry, and it\u2019s getting dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Debate whether it\u2019s better to leave my valuables (passport, laptop, $) at the hostel or walk around with them at night in a new setting. I give them — in a messenger bag secured with a combination lock — to the receptionist at the front desk for safekeeping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5:30pm<\/strong> <\/b>Order a local beer in a restaurant and eat my first meal in about 11 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m relieved to be in Honduras, but I\u2019m having a hard time relaxing because I\u2019m worried about my things at the hostel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6:30pm <\/b> My concerns aren\u2019t unfounded; I return to the hostel to find my bag sitting out for anyone to grab. After I complain about lack of security, the owner offers to put my stuff in a lock box behind the front desk. I decide to just sleep with my bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:30pm <\/b> Crash early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 6 \u2013 Sunday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

8am <\/b> Have a painfully tedious conversation with the receptionist about putting my stuff in the hostel lock box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:30am <\/b> Visit another guesthouse that has lockers for each guest and even provides locks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:45am <\/b> Check out of last night\u2019s hostel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9am <\/b> Eat breakfast at my new place. It\u2019s much more tranquil, with an excellent view of the valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"beautiful<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

10:30am<\/b> Happily discover the shower is the best I\u2019ve encountered in the past 9 months in Latin America: sparkling clean, true hot water, strong water pressure, brightly-colored mosaic tile work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11am <\/b> Skype with my mom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12:30pm<\/b> Chat with other folks in my guesthouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2pm <\/b> Drop off laundry at Casa de Todo (Spanish for \u2018house of everything\u2019).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2:15pm <\/b> Walk to the town\u2019s cemetery. I find cemeteries interesting, and I visit one in most cities to which I travel. As in Guatemala, the tombs here are painted bright colors. However this cemetery is surrounded by a chain link fence, and I can\u2019t find an entrance. In some areas it seems the fence has been pushed down to enable climbing over, though I\u2019m not feeling that adventurous. I\u2019m willing to get into trouble for a lot of things, but trespassing in a Honduran cemetery is not one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"cemetery<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

3pm <\/b> Late lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4:30pm<\/b> Stroll through the town\u2019s central plaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"cowboys<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

6pm <\/b> Answer emails and do some research on Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10pm <\/b> Bedtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Day 7 \u2013 Monday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

7am <\/b> I like the new guesthouse, but nearby noisy roosters and dogs formed a strange symphony throughout the night and into the morning. I give up on trying to sleep and get going early (for me) yet again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:30am <\/b> Crazy mosquitos attack me during breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"mosquito<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

9am <\/b> Copan is home to an important Mayan archaeological site, and that\u2019s the reason I\u2019m in town. Head out for the ruins on foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:10am <\/b> It starts to rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9:30am <\/b> Arrive at the park and wait in the visitor\u2019s center for the rain to stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10am <\/b> Enter the park once the rain slows to a drizzle. I practically have the place to myself. Most of the other people I see are groundskeepers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"Copan<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

Copan is known for its stelae (stone pillars\/monuments) and intricate, well-preserved carvings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t
\"Copan<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n

I feel fortunate to be able to marvel at this site without the usual crowds or hot weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

12noon <\/b> Walk back into town, pick up my laundry, and then return to my guesthouse to shower off all the mud from hiking around in the wet weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2pm <\/b> Eat tamales for lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5:30pm <\/b> Take advantage of happy hour specials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
