This morning, our friends who work for a charity in San Juan del Sur came over to see us....they've been working on a plastics recycling program out here to get the kids and all the visitors involved. Right now, our town is beautiful and unspoilt, and we all want to keep it that way!
Being a developing country, Nicaragua doesn't have the advanced recycling programs that we have back in North America or Europe (and even those have only been going for a short time!) so it has been up to the Charities and local residents to raise awareness among tourists and local alike and also provide a way in which they can actually take action!
The staff from the Charity, Century 21 and SanJuanSurf.com were out this morning for a photoshoot of the Nicaragua National Surf Team to show their support for recycling and to help raise awarenes to keep our town and our beaches clean.
Check out this photo of the shoot! - All of them turned up (after a quick surf)
Also check out this video they took round to all the schools in the area as well!

The best thing we like about people we seem to have coming to Nicaragua, and in particular, to San Juan del Sur, is the amount of people who are wanting to give something back to the community. It means that everyone...local or visitor...gets on really well together and we can all help to build this great little town in a sustainable and conscious way....
Till next time....

I’ve built Localyte into an active community of over 30,000 local experts around the world who answer travelers’ questions for free.

The travelers return again and again to read these responses, creating a unique opportunity for us to promote other products and services related to their destination.
With the Localyte widget on your site, you can also participate in 50% of the revenue we derive from your visitors who ask questions. And your visitors will never have to leave your website to ask their questions. That's it. It’s completely non-competitive and delivers great value to your readers!

Interesting article! This blog is really informative! I know of a wonderful website which promotes a real estate company in the US. This company helps people to buy and sell US property. Foreclosure homes and bank owned homes are available for purchase individually or in bulk at deep discounts, with an average discount of 60-80% off the market price.
A good thing is about keeping the city clean.This seems that a clean city will be developed.I checked the website promoted by Mc, this looks good.
