Bylgermany July 8, 2016December 30, 2025

Arriving in Antigua, Guatemala I was so happy to discover that I didn’t have to look far to find foodie workshops. I started my gastronomy exploration with Taste Antigua’s Street Food Tour and then signed up for two cooking workshops – one with El Frijol Feliz (The Happy Bean) and the other through La Tortilla…

Marionette Theatre – Estulticia
Bylgermany September 5, 2017December 30, 2025

Anyone who read my post about visiting the Puppet Workshop in Bukhara, Uzbekistan, knows that I’m completely enamored with puppetry of any kind.

Singing and Dancing in Suchitoto
Bylgermany May 20, 2016December 30, 2025

On my first day in Suchitoto, El Salvador, as I was wandering around asking about tours, I kept coming across posters for a concert by “Los Panchos” that would be held that afternoon. Although I was a bit dubious about “Mexican guitar music” (how one person described it to me), I had nothing better to…

Santuario de Cascadas – Mindo
Bylgermany August 18, 2016December 30, 2025

Mindo is a small chilled-out town in the middle of a high-biodiversity cloud forest about an hour and a half north-west of Quito. There are lots of things to do there, but because I was feeling like some down-time, I only managed to do two things in 3 days. I could easily have stayed a few more!…
