I was born in London and lived most of my life around the London area; St. Thomas and Thorndale mostly. I also lived in Europe for awhile and in the US. Spent 6 years living in Costa Rica before settling in Nicaragua. Been here 12 years now.

Wow, you've been a traveller! That's awesome. I know most of that area; spent a lot of driving time exploring all of Ontario - picnics, fishing, hiking, attending plays at Stratford .... There are so many beautiful spots to check out - of course, that is the same everywhere. I know Nicaragua is a poor country, but it's also very beautiful.

Not as beautiful as it could be. People here are notorious for pitching their garbage everywhere. I started a campaign here, supplying garbage containers and bags and arranging for people to haul it to the dump. Been giving lessons at school how to recycle. It is an uphill battle but I think I am making some progress.

That's so wonderful for you to do that! I'm sorry people are using their country for a dumping ground though; that's so sad.
