Experiences in general
The best person to ask about this is Peter Christopher, because he was a staple of the landscape. I have not been. And let me tell you that anyone thinking of them self as a "tica" or "nica" who as Peter says, "mixes gentrification" with a complete lack of knowing the language or culture, is probably not your best knowledge base. Because many of those are paying off people like the Sandinistas and hanging in there by a thread for doing so, and know absolutely NOTHING about Latin culture. Ask a person who speaks the language, knows the people, and better than that, ASK the people what they think. They will always be your best resource on their country.
