That is what they said, turn your hearing aid up!

We did take extra fuel and did not have any trouble with it at the border. But having made the trek you really don't need it, there are loads of fuel stops. Our Tom Tom (loaded with Central America maps) worked pretty well. We always cross referenced Tom Tom directions with Google maps on our phone to choose the best routes. That said several times we did end up the wrong way on a one way or driving through a central market LOL.

They paint the bottoms of some trees with a special paint for pest control.

Rooms are on the pricier side for SJDS, it was a splurge for us. The day passes range from free to $35 depending on the day. We booked horse back riding for $36 per person, which is very reasonable. If your looking to stay watch for online deals, especially in the rainy season.

All the prices are listed in USD.

Our tent is the Tuff Stuff Overland Alpha 2 roof top tent. We have now spent more than 365 nights in the tent and we absolutely love it!!!

Es el antiguo hotel Intercontinental. Ahora Crown Plaza. El Hotel Intercontinental cerca de Metro Centro comercial centro, es un bueno hotel también.

We still live in Nicaragua but are currently traveling and camping in Central America. There are so many amazing places we want to explore.

We are not certain if they typically have beef kidneys but if they don't I am sure if you ask they will bring some in for you. That is pretty common in town, if you don't see something you are looking for, ask the shop owner and they often work to bring it in stock.

Thanks so much for the sub and for following our adventures. We hope you make it to Nicaragua, it is a beautiful country.

Thanks! Such a kind comment. I (Tovah) really do love to cook.

We cook most of our own meals. We do go to restaurants or get take out once in a while.

There are many families in San Juan del Sur that do have staff that cook meals. So if your looking for a cook there are lots of great locals that provide that service.

Our pleasure. The breakfast buffet here is one of our absolute favorites.

The accept cash or credit card. We don't think they take debit cards, but it may depend on what kind of debit card you have and if it is linked to credit card, like Visa debit card.

Thank you

What does their residency program entail? El Salvador would be a great country to live in.

@@ChrisTovahsAmazingAdventures - I am trying to send you the message but it appears to be removed. It is a link but I remove the http and it still removes it, not sure how to send you the info..

@@ChrisTovahsAmazingAdventures - the long and short it really depends a different factors but what I think I know from you guys, you might do it from your husbands pension or go the typical digital nomad or solo entrepreneur route. There are lots of options.

You will love it! Make sure you try some of the local foods and cheeses.

The new coastal road is really coming along and soon will be completed. It will be great for travel all along the south Pacific coastal towns of Nicaragua.

Many thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. This was one of our most favorite experiences in El Salvador.

Please do! You can reach out to us at amazingadventures.ct@gmail.com

Indeed, the country is now very safe and is flourishing.

@@ChrisTovahsAmazingAdventures - Yes especially for Bukele to have the insight to move onto the Bitcoin standard and move away from the fiat currency ponzi scheme.

We have moved to Nicaragua (since this video was released) and love it there. All of our research had really paid off and the experience was "as advertised". Since moving we have also been travelling through Central America and truly love the whole area, the culture and the more laid back vibes of these countries.

Thank you so much 🙂

Yes, you are right. This was our very first video, you should check out our newer content, we have really improved.

Si, El Salvador es muy espectacular!

We did visit the Caribbean coast while in Costa Rica it was very beautiful. We found there were not as many camping options on that side but many nice small boutique resort style hotels. We had originally planned to go all the way to Panama but there was a screwworm outbreak in Panama that can affect dogs, so we decided to skip Panama this trip but it is absolutely on our bucket list.

Thanks, will do!

You should! It is a wonderful place for everything outdoors.

Yes, you can take your car to the island on the ferry. With a vehicle it is recommended to book the ferry in advance or arrive early in case you don't get a space on the first ferry. If you typically travel with your little one it is no issue, if you do have a life jacket for them bring it with you (just in case they don't have one that fits them well).

We drove in Mexico in 2023 and just got back from spending a month in Mexico in 2024. We have had no issues. If you stick to main highways and drive during the day it is safe. The news always makes the situation sound worse and deters tourism.

We decided to buy a house in Nicaragua because the price was right, making it a good real estate investment. We don't have kids, just two super cute Bulldogs.

Thanks so much! We really are having a blast!

It cost us $100 per month to store our SUV.

It was! This El Salvador campsite was one of our favorites in all of Central America1

We don't have any connections in Masaya but we would be happy to help answer questions (if we are able). You can reach us on our Instagram @amazingadventures_chris.tovah. There is also a company in San Juan del Sur Nicaragua that do relocates to Nicaragua, called in Nica Now (google them for contact info), they can be a great resource.

Your welcome! We absolutely love Nicaragua 🇳🇮

Yes! Our Instagram is @Amazingadventures_Chris.tovah and on Facebook you'll find us at Chris and Tovah's Amazing Adventures

We have crossed this particular border 4 or 5 times. We have had a few issues, but all related to our move and having camping equipment (so just regular border runs no issue). After we moved on our first border run we ended up having to pay "import tax" for our propane tank, camp stove and our 2 bulldogs ($75 USD). Generally just slow due to the vehicle TIP process.

Thanks, we loved our time in Cold Lake. If you have any questions, we are happy to help. You can DM us on Instagram @amazingadventures_chris.tovah
