Keep it a secret: Nicaragua is one of the most beautiful countries in the world and nobody knows about it… I just spent 4 days in Granada, enjoying the amazing colonial buildings, the nearby majestic lake of Nicaragua, volcanoes and the abundant wildlife. Although people are poor, they look very happy. In Nicaragua you can still enjoy clean air, quietness and peacefulness: like many countries used to be 50 years ago. You can see some of my pictures here. This is definitely a must-go destination and has a lot more to offer than Costa Rica.
