Guatemala City

by bkathryn - last update: May 30, 2003

Park & market, Antigua
I was in Guatemala City for a week in early February 2003 for an international conference on criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management (work). I was happy to have the opportunity to practice my Spanish a bit! It seems that many people go there (particularly to Antigua) for the language schools. The conference was at one of the nice hotels in Guatemala City: Westin Camino Real - "Classic and full of tradition as Guatemala itself". It was very nice - and Guatemala was a warm and welcome change, even for a brief time, from the very cold winter we've been having in Ottawa.

Pros:"Warm and pleasant in February"
Cons:"For me, too much work!"
In A Nutshell:"Lovely and warm, but not too hot, in February."

 So sad you had to work during your visit. I hope you have another opportunity to visit more of this fascinating and mysterious realm of the Maya.
