Awesome. Cool. The best place ever!.... But what people don't know is that there are some villages there facing famine and poverty.. Sure, the scenery is beautiful, but what about the starving children and unemployed parents?? From what I've heard today, it isn't the ideal place to live (in a typical Guatemalan village).. Going for a visit is fun, yes. But I'm sure most people couldn't stand 3 days seeing how the people live in those villages consumed by poverty.
Guatemala contains a mixture of different cultures, Maya Indian, Spanish, and lately a number of Ex-Patriate Americans and Europeans. Some of the Mayan Indians live the way their ancestors lived during the days of the Mayan empires. The people live in villages. The men weave cloth. The women decorate it. Some people farm and some people make utensils. Then there are the Spanish. They mainly live in the cities. They keep the old Spanish culture alive. There is also a mixture of the two cultures, part Mayan and part Spanish. You can go to a church and the people will worship in one language and then the Mayans will go out and have a religious ceremony in their language. In some villages, if you want to talk to the people, you will need to get a translator who can translate from Spanish to Mayan. Not all Mayan Indians speak the same language but an attempt is being made to standardize the language. Then there are the foreigners or Gringoes. There are a number of colonies of Gringoes living at various places in Guatemala, but mostly in the cool, high, mountains. These are people who do not work. Guatemala is the most Indian country in Latin America.
The climate in Guatemala is a tropical climate. It is very hot and humid. Because of the country's location, hurricanes are very frequent, as well as flooding and mudslides.
