Have you ever seen a movie where a girl comes Horrow on the street, where a street is well lit and the other fork goes to a dark alley? It is, of course, chose the dark alley and died. What does this have to do with Guatemala? Nothing, except make stupid decisions that will wear the consequences. I visited the rural Guatemala twice and never had a problem. I stay outside, 6'0 Gringo between 5'6 "dark-skinned Guatemala. If you have problems when it comes to you, but if you have a few people with you, everything will go well. Like the others referred to the extreme rural areas are run by drug barons, but not kidnap, torture, and you want the FARC in Colombia. The greatest danger is during the night drive (even during the day) in rural areas. Bandits set up roadblocks and rob them, but ideally have two cars, traveling together and travel, it minimizes the threat. Chickenbuses not on the mountain. It's cheap, but dangerous. Most people, without no problem, but GE's opportunitiesttingen shooting stolen, if you mount it. Use common sense as you would your city and you will do. Nobody goes to Guatemala to see the city, the beauty of nature in the rural areas of the country. Well, have fun and everything will be alright.

I would be November to February. It is the lack of rain and the threat of landslides blocked roads reduced.

In Guatemala, there are many people who are too blonde Maya. They are not in an "outsider" among the Maya people, just because you're blond.

Not at all dangerous ........ If you hurt someone, because some foreigners, the country begin to abduct children and to give outside the country, up for adoption or for damage caused by the removal of their organs.

Men are from strangers, because of this fear, some fear that if a stranger a picture of their children because of the reasons I mentioned above under.

Guatemala is not the jungle, is a small country with problems, but tell me this country has no problems? Drugs? Yes Delincuency? yes

We have seen a common country with many beautiful things. Do not be afraid!

Let me begin by throwing a little less known information with you about your destination. First, the rural Guatemala this area is certainly infected drug courier. Secondly, unless you are a photographer for National Geographic Society, being a woman "white American" without being accompanied in South America, some large and muscular men equipped (martial arts training would not be bad) is not the best decision you . Why can do? Well, really easy. You are a white, single (ie, no men or children are with you), Blonde 5'-10 "woman." Well, what love drunk for a life low foaming bag and what not to be missed, it would benefit from the situation? Have I mentioned, the nature of the drug cartel to? Oh yes, I know that as crazy as it may seem (but the Ministry of Interior of the United States (these are the people who call and compare it with what we are doing this for a living) would be able to say exactly what the shipping lanes, and that these countries are bad things, they exist yet!) white slave trAders in or around the area want to sell to Saudi or any other country (the Ukraine!). Go to Japan. They have the best sushi and sashimi shops in the world!

Guatemala has many rural areas with security problems, but there are places that are relatively safe. Travel the tourist places that you probably okay as long as one does not mention the night stay. Guatemala has a number of high school Spanish. I would become one of them for a while and get the song from the earth. "The best schools are offices that help people to travel and volunteer opportunities. Schools have announced the names and contact alumni, so you jump to ask. State.gov briefings to the highest safety standards, consular information sheets.

Darling means that many white people in Guatemala.
For some reason, many Guatemalans believe that their country is "civilized" and mentioned that they found before Caucasion. I think it's missing the point: rural Guatemala is dangerous, especially if you are white. Do not be racist, you will not remain as a sore thumb, because not many white people who live in Guatemala (by the indigenous population)

The last thing I heard, there are guerrillas in the jungles of Guatemala and it is not safe for gringos are to there. It will seduce you and torture you. They warned my friends who were missionaries, and has not returned. It is not wise to do so.
