New to Trujillo by GoNSouth
Trujillo Honduras is (I hope) an up-and-coming tourist/expat area. I just thought I'd open up a dialog for anyone who is living in, purchased property, or planning to live in the Trujillo area. My wife and purchased a lot in phase 2 of the Recap ...
If you want torquoise water and much safer conditions than the mainland, you,re looking at the Bay islands. Military does not fool with you either. More expensive on Roatan to buy beach property I,m sure, but you,ll recoup your investment. The key ... Read More

You,re quite right. Canada,s Conservative government has been marching to the American tune from Iraq to Afghanistan. I,m not surprised that it,s attempting to curry votes and American approval in the so called war on drugs. Our government has also ... Read More
