A torch! Never forget your torch!
As, especially in the remote villages, electricity is rare the streets can be really dark and so can your room be.
I thanked god for having a good torch with me! Leave a Comment

We were here at the end of the rain season but still there were enourmous tropical showers. Make sure you bring something to keep you and your bag dry! Leave a Comment

The bugs are huge, there are bats everywhere. This is not a country for the faint hearted. Leave a Comment

If you look like me, you will need sunscreen and a hat. You can buy most medical supplies at the pharmacy and there are very few things for which you need a prescription. You may want to have a mosquito net to sleep in if one is not provided for you. We brought bug spray, but didn't really need it at this time of the year.
Film was really really expensive in Esteli. I would suggest bringing what you need. Leave a Comment

Be sure pack the most important thing when traveling to the third world : gifts for the children. I carried a small deck of Disney cards which made great icebreakers in out of the way places. If you have room in your pack, it would also not be a bad idea to bring along some old clothes to give away. People in Managua are in dire need of charity. Leave a Comment

not to heavy bags, cause you won't know which transport you'll choose (bus...).
hiking shoes, summer dressing (it's very hot)
if possible, a mosquito net (depends on the accommodation)
medicine against flue, mosquito bites
you will always get everything you need, if you have the money. Some ewuipments are sold in wooden shacks. But they work...
for people from non american countries...don't forget to bring a adapter (US/central american norm) for the socket for your electronical equipment... Leave a Comment
