The adventure, the seven volcano challenge, is just a few days away from starting and the crew and I have arrived in Guatemala to get acclimated, prepared and ready to take on the challenge and so much more. For example, we need to learn a bit about the country of Guatemala, so here are a few factoids:
· Capital City – Guatemala City
· Population of Guatemala – 17.25 million
· Language spoken – Spanish
· The export of coffee is the biggest business in the country
· Lake Atitlán is the deepest lake in Central America, with a maximum depth of about 340 meters. It is also regarded as the most beautiful lake in the world
· Guatemala is a presidential representative democratic republic whereby the president is both the head of state and government
So, when you throw in a beautiful countryside and a great and friendly culture you realize why this is such a great place to visit and explore
