A Day In The Life: San Juan Del Sur

 San Juan Del Sur is a town where there is always something to do. We've been surprisingly busy since we got here, who knew setting up a whole different kind of life would be so much work? Thought I would share just a few of the things happening in town on a regular day.

  Every Saturday morning there is a farmer's market in town where one can buy fresh greens, health foods, home made baking, and the list goes on. Many expats attend in hopes of finding comfort foods from home that can be hard to find here in Nicaragua. Items like chocolate chip cookies and tarts go fast since desserts in Nicaragua are generally not what those of us from up north are used to.

Taking a walk down the street will find vendors selling fresh squeezed orange juice, coconut water (straight from the coconut), and cashews among other things.

 I think he was annoyed because I didn't want any cashews but the nuts made me nervous, I have to ask more questions before I buy nuts on the street. They're probably fine, I just don't know...

There are several coffee shops in town. This is El Gato Negro, they've got cappuccino, bagels, books, and more. Books are another item that can be difficult to find so this spot is another favourite among the expat community.

I will save the night life for a future post, I know there are some wondering about tourism prices etc. so I will try to write about that soon as well.
