Desayuno Tipico
2021年2月15日, グアテマラ ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
Desayuno = breakfast,
Tipico = typical.

In Spanish the adjective comes after the noun so if we translate this into proper English then we arrive at "typical breakfast."

Mi mucho gusta desayuno tipico en Guatemala. Típicamente tiene frijoles, huevos, tortillas, y platanos fritos. Algunas veces viene con café (no necesita leche hacer el café sabor mejor porque está muy mejor que Mexicano café).

Esta desayuno perfecto. Me da energía y se está llenando sin ser pesado. Esta mui barrato y facil hacer. La tortillas de Guatemala esta mas grueso que Mexicano tortillas, pero perferimos esto porque el maies tortillas mantene humedo y mantene por mas tiempo.

Estoy obsesió con platano frito. Usualmente cocino dos, o tres por dia. Necisitan estar mui negro antes de cocina o no estan madura y no tienen bien sabor. Necesitan solamente estar frito en aciete para aproximadamente diez o quince minutos y entonces estan perfecto. No se necesita azúcar ni salsa, pero algunas veces cocino con canela. Están mucho delicioso.

Pienso que desayuno tipico desde Guatemala esta mi favorito desayuno y recomendo muy esta. Esta perfecto por vegetarianos.

***TRANSLATION***

I really like typical breakfast in Guatemala. It typically has beans, eggs, tortillas, and fried plantains. Sometimes it comes with coffee (you don't need milk to make the coffee taste better because it is so much better than Mexican coffee).

This is the perfect breakfast. It gives me energy and is filling without being heavy. It is very cheap and easy to do. Guatemalan tortillas are thicker than Mexican tortillas, but we prefer this because the corn tortillas keep moist and keep longer.

I am obsessed with fried plantain. I usually cook two, or three a day. They need to be very black before cooking or they are not ripe and do not taste good. They only need to be fried in oil for about ten or fifteen minutes and then they are perfect. No sugar or sauce is needed, but sometimes I cook with cinnamon. They are very delicious.

I think that typical breakfast from Guatemala is my favorite breakfast and I highly recommend it. It is perfect for vegetarians.もっと詳しく

Antigua
2021年2月16日, グアテマラ ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C
Antigua is a beautiful colonial town that is located about an hour or so away from Guatemala City, or as the locals call it “Guate.” Antigua is known for its beautiful cobble stoned streets, colonial architecture, food, and most of all - the surrounding volcanoes! We stayed in Antigua three separate times. Cumulatively staying here for about 2.5 weeks.

Although Antigua is a beautiful city, we’d only recommend staying for a few days because it is a bit more expensive than many other places in Guatemala. We ended up staying longer than we’d have hoped because we were having difficulty working out what we should do with all of the covid-19 restrictions. These difficulties will be further explained in the following posts.もっと詳しく

To Iztapa!
2021年2月18日, グアテマラ ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C
Today we went to Iztapa, which is a very small beach town on the West coast of Guatemala. The day on the chicken buses was eventful as always… This time we were sent in the exact oposite direction towards Isapa (not Iztapa) because of miscommunication due to the rushed nature of chicken bus departures. After discovering this we got off of the bus at the next available stop and went back to Antigua to catch a bus in the right direction towards Iztapa.

We arrived in Iztapa just as night fell and were welcomed with thick, humid air and empty streets. We walked 5 minutes to our riverside hostel on the edge of town. One-hundred-fifty quetzales got us one night in a private multi-room beach hut. The hut itself was really nice and cozy. The three main issues were the dense, wet heat, the complete lack of internet (essential for work), and the lack of surf (our main reason for coming). We enjoyed one peaceful night here along the river, and then moved on to Montericco the next day.

To Monterrico!
2021年2月20日, グアテマラ ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
We arrived in Monterrico in late afternoon. It was also just as hot and humid as Iztapa, but we were hoping to be able to relax and enjoy the swimming oriented beaches (opposed to surfing beaches of Iztapa). We were also hoping to be able to have access to better internet. Montericco is quite beautiful and picturesque, however, neither our internet problem, or desire for beach time were fulfilled. The beach has very hot black sand that is nearly impossible to handle during the peak swimming hours of the day. The accommodation prices in Montericco are also much higher than our budget, and most places do not have communal kitchens forcing us to eat out and spend more money. After much deliberation, we decided to go back to Antigua to escape the heat and capitalize off of the cheaper accommodation prices while we tried to decide where to go next. But first, we spent about three days in Monterrico to enjoy the beach!

On our last night in Montericco we decided to stay at a very… rustic… hotel because it was amoungst the very very few options within our price range (60Q/night/person). The owners and workers of this hotel were wonderful, accommodating, and friendly people. But the hotel itself was definitely an experience to say the least. We stayed in a concrete room that resembled something of a jail cell, shared an incredibly run down comunal bathroom between other guests and restaurant patrons; it was primarily made of concrete with toilets that rarely had toilet paper, and did not flush, the showers were mearly cemente stalls with no shower curtains that contained a pvc pipe sticking through the wall that only spouted out cold water, and most of the lights did not work. Finally, the restaurant portion of the hotel was hosting many drunk locals that were listening to extremely loud music until about 12 am. This was amongst my least luxurious stays in my lifetime, but I wouldn’t change it for anything else because it was such a bizarre and authentic experience. The hostel owners were very generous in finding us a fan for our room and gave us free ice water which tremendously helped us cope with the heat. 🥰 We spent our evening talking, drinking, and I even hula hooped to the loud local music!
