Crayons for Kids: Destination Nicaragua!
Ariam Cox saw a great opportunity to get her friends and classmates involved in helping other children around the world. She was an orphan in Haiti and knows firsthand what it is to not have what we take for granted in the US.
She started to collect crayons from restaurants and homes until she had thousands.
Then, we hand-carried these boxes over 3,200 miles to the small city of Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua.
They were hand carried to a feeding center where about 200-300 children would come for sometimes their only meal of the day.
Most of the time, kids would be lucky to have jus ONE crayon for themselves. They were so happy to receive 3-4 crayons each which they could take home and show their parents. We gave them coloring pages and then fed them a small oatmeal lunch.
Though it was pouring rain outside, the barefoot kids loved this day!
Though they will probably never get to see the faces of the generous kids who worked so hard to collect these crayons, you can see the joy on their faces!!
If you would like to help out this Christian Ministry, a little bit of money goes a long way. $50 can feed around 250 children! $25 can help a child go to school for a month. $150/month can send a student to college! Take a look at:
Somoto Canyon (2019) Backpacking Nigaragua
In this episode we explore Somoto Canyon. The canyon is located a short distance from the town of Somoto located in northern Nicaragua and is one of Nicaragua's main tourist attractions.
We had a fabulous day with Somoto Canon Adventura Extrema and we wouldn't hesitate in recommending them for your trip.
They day in the Somoto Canyon included hiking, floating in a rubber ring, trip in a boat and if you want a horse ride.
We visited during the dry season so the water level was low, if you want more adventure, then make sure you visit in the wet season when the river will be much higher and faster.
We hope you enjoy this episode.

Guide to visiting Flores & Tikal Guatemala (2019) Mayan Ruins
In this episode we stay on in the picturesque town of Flores in Guatemala and share with you our experience of visiting the Mayan site of Tikal.
Flores is a small and beautiful town located on and island in a lake. The island is easily accessible as it is connected to .the mainland by a bridge. We show you all the island. Flores is a meca for tourist arriving in Guatemala from Belize or as a final stop before heading to Belize and is the main place that tourists stay to visit the Mayan Ruins of Tikal.
We took a day tour to the Mayan Ruins of Tikal, which are located approximate one and a half hours drive from Flores. A site filled with mystery - make sure you have a guided tour as the guides are very knowledgable and without them you would be walking around the ruins and tikal without learning anything about the Mayan history or way of life - they're also great for spotting and pointing our wildlife on the way.
We recommend visiting Tikal early in the morning as by 11am the weather is very hot and nearly 40 degrees celsius. We left at 4.30am and there is a tour that leaves around 3am if you want to watch the sun rise over the ruins.
Thanks for watching

Nicaraguan Travels | BAREFOOTNINA
For my first college spring break, I had the greatest opportunity to go to Jinotega, Nicaragua with an incredible group from Northeastern University.
We worked alongside Outreach360 who usually run several English learning centers for any willing student in Jinotega, but when they have more volunteers, they expand to different neighborhoods as learning camps for less frequent students.
My school worked in a shanty town with morning classes reaching till about 20/30 kids, and afternoon classes going up to around 80 with kids ages ranging from 5-15!
The kids are so so bright despite not having continous English accessability. We started with 15min reading in either English/Spanish, and 10mins of camp songs before moving onto fun classes where I was in the extra-curricular group - with a focus to keep the kids energetic whilst they learn.
The focus of the week was the time, action words, before/after, starting off the camp for other volunteers to follow.
This trip was definitely something else. Not only was it my first time in Central America, but I was able to serve and learn so much about the culture, and the hidden issues that lie in it. In reflections we discussed machismo, voluntourism, latino/hispanic role models, English imperialism, sustainability, minority groups etc. We also watched 2 documentaries, one looking at the lives the Nicaraguans, and the second being about the Nicaraguan Samoza regime and USA's part in it.
Hope you guys enjoy this video, and please check out my other ones! :)

Expedition: COSTA RICA [Adventure #145]
Sailing from Nicaragua to Northern Costa Rica we sail through squalls, catch an awesome fish and get a dolphin escort! Anchored in Bahia Santa Elena in Santa Rosa National Park, we explore an untouched wilderness of tropical dry forest that we deem the land of the parrots and crabs. It’s a pretty special place, way off the beaten path!
