Untold Histories, chicken buses, bunny texts
Well here we are. My internship is now complete. Half of the group left yesterday, the other half leaves tomorrow morning.
Hard to believe 8 weeks went by like that—but I'm excited to continue my journey now solo. Off to the northeast I go!
Most of all though, I can’t believe I’m actually writing …

... bags behind reception and went out for a walk to kill the next four hours we had to wait until the bus would be likely to turn up. There isn’t much to see in Huehue...in fact it’s a bit of a dump, but there are some ruins a few kilometres out of the city, so we hopped in a cab and went to look around them. During this time, my lovely friend Kerri was texting me about coming over to see me this weekend so I was spending most of my time looking ...

Last night Gina was still hopeful that her bag would be found and wanted to go to the bus terminal to see if the driver was there but in all reality and in all fairness I'm afraid there isn’t a hope of ever seeing it again. But as we were heading off today and going to the bus station anyway we allowed a bit of extra time for Gina to go round asking different people while I stayed with the bags. Our plan was to then find a bus to ...
Hike to La Torre & the loss of the rucksack :-(

My new laptop with all my photos from the previous 3 and a half weeks, my blogs which hadn’t been posted, my new ipad, my camera with loads of other photos on, the two Finisterre jackets which I have been living in and love, my favourite scarf and worst of all, the letters that Jake and Lilia wrote to me when I left the UK.
We walked up the road to the hotel and I burst into tears when we got there. Thankfully, ...
Todos Santos, La Torre and the lost backpack!
... were slipping about a bit but fortunately this time no finger, hand or other injures. Back down in La Ventoza we had a 10 minute wait before a minivan was going our way to take us back to Todos Santos.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel Zaculeu Huehuetenango
Our group stayed for a week here, and had a wonderful experience. The hotel is the oldest here, but beautifully renovated, and boasts a serene inner patio in the middle. There are birds, fountains, and wifi, and thus is a perfect oasis from the hustle and bustle of the city of Huehue. Much recommended.
