THANK YOU for this insight into your big move and how it’s delivered in ways unforeseen. The face that you’re in it together is the most incredible part of the journey. Sunsets never lose their romance, and, also, to experience while in paradise feels extra special!
Hi Lisa, I enjoyed your story. Especially the part about living in the United States is easier, but life is simpler in Nicaragua. I couldn't agree more. I've visited there several times in the past when my friend was living there.
I'm retired and have given Nicaragua a very serious look. At least for 6 months out of the year. I remember the heat being so oppressive in Granada. At least the breeze coming off the lake was pretty constant. I'm just in the FAFO stage at the moment. Any thoughts about location would be welcomed. I don't mind being off the main path. I'm a retired environmental scientist, so I can appreciate the greener areas.
Michael - love your question and that you have visited Nicaragua in the past. There are 2 areas that come to mind:
- "Emerald Coast" - where we live on the Pacific side there are incredible beaches and it's very rural and wild. Hot but the ocean cools it down. A lot of people like San Juan del Sur but we prefer it closer to the Popoyo area, where we have a house.
- Ometepe - is also naturally stunning. It's an island and has a very different vibe than the beach areas. Both are worth checking out. And I'm happy to chat or share more anytime.
