• Did I mention the mountains? It's, like a wilderness. Complete.
• Nature, generally. It's spectacular.
  
• The geckos. Which are also part of nature.
  
• The street food, which is ideal for hangovers, consisting generally of maize stuffed with very salty cheese and fried in a variety of shapes and sizes.
  
• Dancing when not drunk. A bizarre national pastime.
  
• Constant latin junk music, generally clashing with different latin junk music in the bar opposite, and 80s power ballads pumping from a nearby pick up.
  
• Pick ups! I love pick ups!
• Piñatas in the shape of sponge bob square pants.
  
• The market (see previous).
  
• Giant ceramic cockerels with Honduras written across their combs; which I'm going to buy in job lots for wedding presents when I get home. Don't think I'm joking.
• The proximity to Guatemala.
