12. Here’s your chance to learn Spanish.
You barely paid attention during Spanish class in high school and now you think it’s too late to pick up a new language. Right? Wrong! Guatemala has a number of amazing language schools where you can take classes or participate in one-on-one sessions. You’ll learn, you’ll have fun and it won’t break the bank. Sign us up.
13. Meet new people.
The Guatemalan people are very nice and always helpful. If you’re somewhat of a cynic or you’re from a city where people aren’t always all that friendly (cough cough New York, cough cough Miami) then this will be a particularly refreshing departure you’re your everyday life. After all, the best experts are the locals who live there, and when they are friendly you can really get a taste of what Guatemala is all about.
