    In case you aren't familiar with the "crazyguy" site, a search on
    "Guatemala" shows up 12 journals and a few dozen pages; that might be some
    help.

    I realize that I can't remember if the civil war in Guatemala is active at
    the moment or not. According to Wikipedia, the unrest ended in 1996, but
    they also report Guatemala has one of the world's highest murder rates. [Top
    5 are El Salvador, Jamaica, Guatemala, Honduras, and Venezuela. Gee, is
    there a pattern?]

    No but I have a brother in law that lived there. This was 20+ years
    ago. They did find that violent crime was a problem.

    I suspect it could be a wonderful trip, but you'd have to be
    circumspect at all times.
