Nicaragua Travel - Rough Guides

Wedge-shaped Nicaragua may be the largest nation in Central America but, despite recent growth, it remains one of the least visited.

Affordable, Low-Key Nicaragua - Travel and Leisure

I'm repelled by the prospect of traveling to a foreign place and locking myself into some posh compound for the duration. On the one hand, I will probably never go on one of those charity vacations where you perform worthy labor on behalf of poor people; on the other, the one cruise I've taken (from Mumbai to Athens) really was a supposedly fun thing I'll never do again.
