Nicaragua

A lecture about Nicaragua - a land of volcanoes rising from lakes, colonial cities, and life under Marxist rule.

Petr Hingar will guide you from colorful Granada through the island of Ometepe and the active volcanoes of the north to the Pacific coast and the jungles of Indio Maíz. The talk covers local transport, food, prices, and safety - as well as what it's like to descend a volcano on a board, swim in a crater, ride a chicken bus, or why rum is sold in plastic bottles.
