After our visit to Nicaragua in January we spent our time packing up and selling everything, and as of the end of February we are now living in Nicaragua.
So to introduce you all to this whole new world here are some fun facts.
- Lake Nicaragua is the 10th largest lake in the World and the only one in the world that contains freshwater sharks
- That lake has the largest island on a freshwater lake in the world made from two volcanoes
Here is the island... surrounded by sharks :/ - There is between 20-30 volcanoes (I've heard it many ways) and quite a few are active
- Nicaraguans are super crafty people they do lots of weaving and wood work
- It is the poorest country in Central America and the second poorest (next to Haiti) in the Hemisphere
- The average annual income is $2,200
- The country boasts a very low crime rate
- It has 500 miles of coastline
- And 5 of the best surf spots in the world
- Nicaragua had a 7% increase in the truth in the last service year
Fun facts about our English preaching field is soon to come. All of us do have calls and studies though.
Everything is so different here, and pictures and words can't express it. We'd love for you to come visit.
<3 you all

ReplyDeleteHi guys! I was so happy to hear from you. I can't believe you left Panama and are now in Nicaragua! So exciting! I must know everything! What's it's like? How is the preaching? Do they speak English there more than in Panama? What is the food like? Who are you studying with? Can't wait to hear from you. I still miss you guys and think about you often.
