8 REASONS TO RETIRE IN ANTIGUA: Guatemala The Land Of The Eternal Spring
Not just another travel Book about Antigua, Guatemala, this eBook is packed with authentic experiences I made myself over the years.
I came to Antigua first time six years ago to take Spanish lessons on a friend’s recommendation . After the two weeks, I knew for sure I would come back. Not only did I like the unequaled teaching system of the school.
It was, above all, the overall impression this beautiful colonial town with its friendly residents left with me.
So only two months later, I booked daily lessons in the same school for six month, and I was so fortunate that the school offered me to live in a small private bungalow in the school gardens. They sent me to an accommodating former school principal for having the best native meals and enjoying a family like and welcoming acceptance.
The next few European cold winters I spent in Antigua with its year around spring climate.
I wish I had known the Guatemalan highlands where Antigua is embedded in long time before. The climate is so beneficial to my health and only after one week staying here, all my back pains are gone.
Now I am spending more and more time here. This is now the first period I lived here more than twelve month without leaving the country for longer than two weeks.
The special geographic situation of Guatemala on the Isthmus of Central America allows to reach the Pacific and Caribbean beaches in two respectively four hours of public bus rides. On these beaches, a tropical climate expects the beach lovers.
