Tales of hitchhiking and vice
Distance covered: Somoto, Nicaragua to El Amatillo, El Salvador I awoke in Somoto, Nicaragua and caught the 6:45am bus to Somoto Canyon, where I entered the park barefoot with my drybag containing my rock climbing shoes, helmet, and not much more. I reached the river, crossed and smoked the last of my marijuana and hash,... Continue Reading →
Note: I just hitchhiked on mescaline all day from Nindiri up to Somoto, Nicaragua. First time hitchhiking on psychedelics. Hitchhikeadelic is now... real. And shit got real. That post will be tomorrow. But this is part 5 of my hitchhiking trip from Panama City, Panama to... todo norte! Actually I have a wedding to attend... Continue Reading →
Click here to read Part 1, and Part 2 *** March, 2018. Ometepe, Nicaragua. Shit hit the fan real quick when Diego and I showed up to hike Concepción, the behemoth, the impossibly symmetrical cone rising above the island of Ometepe. We hiked to the park entrance, and shit hit the fan. They wanted $2 entrance... Continue Reading →
Volcán Maderas - II Having already hiked Maderas solo, I later met two beautiful women, a Bolivian and a German, at the nearby hostel, El Pital (the Chocolate Factory), and I offered to guide them up the Volcán. It proved more adventurous than expected. The next day we set off from the Madrugaba Farm entrance. A... Continue Reading →
[Note: This story will reveal the surprises atop Volcán Maderas and Volcán Concepción in Ometepe, Nicaragua. I highly recommend that you do not read this story, and instead book a flight to Nicaragua, come to Ometepe, stay at Zopilote, hike these volcanoes with a couple friends, and experience the surprise for yourself. Let the mystery... Continue Reading →

So you always have a view of a volcano, or the beach, or both volcanoes and the beach. Two days ago I left my hostel/farm (Zopilote) around 10am and started walking towards the ATM. I...

I’ve been without a phone for 7 weeks now. It’s been, in a word, transformative. At first I was uncomfortable not being able to take out the phone at any moment. I used to take it out at least 20 times a day. You sit down in a social area, a restaurant, a bar, chances... Continue Reading →
I've said it before: things are getting WEIRD ever since I went phoneless. The first few days were hectic. This was a month ago. I left Boquete to find my friends in the jungle of Limones, and, because I rely on my phone for everything, I was unable to find them for a full 24... Continue Reading →
A note on photos... my phone is broken, so I have no photos of Nicaragua, but I will acquire them when possible. Still, an article needs a featured photo. Gotta draw people in. So for now, please accept this sexy photo of me and a cool dog admiring the balsamic rock of Boquete, Panama. And... Continue Reading →
This is Part 2 of a series, ¡TODO NORTE!. You might want to read the brief Part 1 about hitching out of Panama City. Ok, now I am in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, and I can properly describe the events of the last few days. As I was saying in the last post before... Continue Reading →
