You’ll love it! That tour was a total highlight for me — so glad I happened to spot their flyer on a random bulletin board!

I love the colors and I am definitely going to take the colonial house tour!

Hm, I can’t recall if I visited that room or not. I did love Granada!

Yes, Nicaragua is heavily Catholic! Churches are everywhere and from what I saw, services are well attended.

BTW, is Granada catholic? They seem to have a good number of churches based on your photos. Reminds me of where I come from, the Philippines, where we have lots of churches around.

Yeah, I don’t know if there’s anywhere in the world I’ve ever been that has as much color as Central America does. So beautiful! It’s one of the things that will keep me coming back over and over again.

What a gorgeous place! The buildings are so beautiful. I think buildings in Central America in general are a bit more colourful than in South America. If only aid workers earned more money, then I would rent one of those colonial houses on the spot. 🙂

The only downside I can imagine would be trying to get around in a downpour 🙂 But yes, love the open air plans as well!

I can see why it’s a place people keep returning to! I miss Pure and Garden Cafe already 🙂
