Important Things Central America Taught Me

Travel Blog - Ross French - June 1, 2012

By: Hogga

Air conditioning is gold and you will sell your left tit to get some.

Bugs are big and you better just get used to it.

Don’t try hiking in the rain. It’s scary shit.

Just because beer is so cheap, doesn’t mean you have to drink it every day. Or does it? (This lesson is a bit blurry).

nom nom nom

Pedestrians do not have the right of way. Unless they want to get hit by a car and die.

When someone gives you directions, the time the tell you it takes to reach your destination is never accurate. A 20 minute drive could be 5 minutes or one hour, it’s a clusterfuck of confusion.

Dancing is fun, but makes you very sweaty.

Crossing borders by foot is not as cool as it was when I was 25. It makes me want to punch people in their mind.

I still love me some latin men. Oh snap!

purrrr

Refried beans straight from a packaged bag are delicious. There’s no need for a spoon, unless you’re a pussy.

Ice cold red wine is better than no red wine. But still gross.

If you ask someone a question in Spanish and they reply to you in English, it’s probably best to continue to the conversation in English instead of forcing them to try and figure out your crappy Spanish.

Good cheese is worth the money moneis, bitches.

Getting day drunk is totally acceptable. Pizza for dinner is encouraged after this.

HELLO RUM!

A hat to avoid burning ones scalp is a priceless investment… that I never made.

The more you smile, the less people can be mad that your Spanglish is awful.

Kissing can be painful. Literally… keep those teeth in your mouth where they belong, buddy.

      I’m not gonna lie. I couldn’t find any good sandwich meat, which made me a sad panda.

    The symmetry between the first beer-swilling pic and the wine-swilling pic on the side of the blog is remarkably … hot. And besides, wasn’t toothy spit-swobbing the new caliente? 😛

    HA! I didnt even realize the pics are so similar… I need to get some new photos of myself without booze in my hand.

    How about
    “If everyone tells you you should cover up when outside in the hot, jungle areas, its best to listen to them. Otherwise you WILL end up hosting another, unwanted worm-like creature”.

    Costa Rica? I think I recognize the beer…..don’t know about beans from a bag though.

    • Hogga June 4, 2012 at 1:11 PM

      Oh yeaaah!… it’s just refried beans, which we can only get in a can here in Canada.

    Hilarious! I haven’t made it to Central America, but some of these could easily translate to other parts of the world too.

    ‘refried beans straight from a package bag are delicious’ Brilliant. I tried them straight from a can when I got home, not as good.

    • Hogga January 6, 2013 at 11:25 AM

      I agree, they just don’t taste the same from a can.
