Nicaragua is an amazing country and is definitely somewhere a lot of people want to visit and indulge in all the fun activities they do there. They celebrate a lot more holidays then most average people do. The country is mostly Catholic so they all really celebrate the same religion together. Comparing our cultures, we do celebrate the same holidays but that is really about it. The food they eat and the traditions of going out and shouting and everyone getting together on the streets doesn't really happen much here. Out food is a lot different too, they do not really have a source of protein but our food almost always has protein in it. Even though that is a big problem in that country, many people still want to see and act in their culture and really understand what it's like to celebrate with them.
