Weekend in Guatemala






I just got back from a weekend trip to Guatemala. I went to Chichicastanega with a friend of mine. Chichicastanega is a huge textile area in Guatemala. These little native people hand weave and make tons of things.

I got some really cools saints and blankets. The town is primitive and the hotels a little scary but in general Chichicastanaga is safe-no stealing, and shockingly nobody smokes cigarettes. I had a wonderful time and leanred a lot. The ticket out of San Jose, CR was $130!

  1. I wouldn't mind a saint. I need some miracles. How much do they cost? Or do you rent them?
