My Impressions of Guatemala.
I was a bundle of nerves before I left NYC for Guatemala. I had read enough stories about how unsafe it was, hadnβt travelled solo in another country for a while, and Central America just felt like a world away. My fears were gradually alleviated when I landed here, realizing how laid back the locals are, and in some ways, how much more organized travelling hereΒ isΒ than many developing countries I’ve been to.

But in my heart, Iβm just a girl who believes that travel – if done right – has the power to change us and the world we live in.
