In reply to Sian Anderson. Thanks so much, Sian! It was a great one to research, as I personally hate wearing nylon/polyester and other synthetic fabrics, especially when working out.

Comment on Why You Should Only Visit Panajachel in the Morning by Linda

I just left a long comment about everything but just not going to repeat all of that. These comments are from tourist season so that is normal of course. Generally, it is laid back and natural. lots of nature. jump shuttles to other places from here. Plenty of food stores, regular grocery stores, some specialty stores Packa used items all over and super cheap….all degrees of quality and value Medical available. Outdoor market. Boats to other villages daily. Kites with seat for 2 to fly over lake etc. Depending on when you are here there can be days of fireworks going off. Party noise if you are next to a bar…I come for 3-6 months each time and never had a problem with that. although some people will play their boom boxes with hellish sounds, sometimes a real nucense but that is pretty much anywhere in these parts. Part of the culture. Why I like it: peaceful, nature, close to water, friendly people, native mayan clothes worn. Cheap. No need for car as you can walk everywhere but tuk tuks available for cheap….less than a dollar each. Best way to understand Pana is to visit, of course….Home of Lake Atitlan and the volcanoes. I wake up in the morning go to the kitchen and from my window I see tons of beautiful flowers, Trees, grass so soft like walking on marshmallows. and a big volcano right out my window…! I rent a small house on a property of 5 units and very beautiful, way off the road, quiet and private. Cost $475. a month all inclusive one bedroom furnished. You only pay for gas for cooking.and drinking water if you want to buy from here, otherwise the stores. better right here.

Comment on A Practical Travel Guide to Bogota by Calendariofestivos

I really enjoyed reading this. It perfectly describes what happened to me as well.

Before visiting Colombia, I kept hearing that Bogotá was just a huge, cold, and chaotic city, so my expectations were quite low. In the end, it turned out to be one of the places that surprised me the most. I loved the mix of history, culture, museums, cafés, and the overall atmosphere in neighborhoods like Chapinero and La Candelaria.

I also appreciate that you shared both the good and the challenging aspects of the city. No place is perfect, but Bogotá definitely has much more to offer than many travel guides give it credit for.

Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed and honest review!

Thank you so much for your guide. I’ve been a little hungry since arriving in the Basque region (can’t survive on potato chips and coffee, I guess!). We went to Vincent’s Cafe for brunch today and it was great!! They even had oat milk for the coffee. Perfect! Thanks for doing the leg work.

Comment on Safari in Tanzania: 5 Days of Beautiful Wilderness by Charlie Marchant

In reply to Mark belshaw. This itinerary is a great option for that! I'm not sure there is a max on the luggage, but the safari jeep doesn't have lots of extra space so a large suitcase per person at maximum is ideal.
