about Esteli...

hello friends,

Yea so this is Nicaragua... actually, this is the street I live on.  It's one road over from the Pan American Highway in the city of Esteli. 

And here's a little map I stole from Google images to show you where we are in relation with the rest of the country.  Here's some info about Esteli:

1. We don't have the ocean...
2. We are at a higher elevation and mountains surrounding us, so the climate is pretty comfortable.  And it actually gets pretty cool at night.
3. About 2 hours north of the capital city of Managua
4. Someone said it's the second largest city in Nicaragua, I don't know if that's true or not, but compared to towns back home, it's comparable to Quogue or something, just for a rough estimate.  So for Nicaragua it's a big town, but it's really not that big.
