What do Nicaraguans do Well?

Even though I'm not Nicaragua I have lived enough in this country to get to know them pretty well. Off course, the nationality of a person doesn't determine him or her completely but as a nation there are many things that are promoted and thus the people begin to be good at them. One of the things in which I think Nicaraguans are remarkable is in the arts. Cooking, crafting, singing, dancing, writing are all things that Nicaraguans are good at, maybe because of tradition or heritage.

GASTRONOMY:

I haven't ever visited another country in which tourists can gain weight so easily. Nicaraguan food is amazing cooked with lots of love. The charisma of the people is portrayed on their colorful dishes and drinks. From a variety of fruits, vegetebles, meat and lots of corn, what's there not to love? I must say that I love this food, specially the tajadas or platain fried chips with fried cheese, their cacao drink, a creamy and sustantious drink made of pure cocoa beans,and off course how forget the famous rosquillas!

There's no doubt that Nicaraguan gastronomy is between the best of all Central American Countries.

CRAFTING:

If you are looking for a beautiful souvenir for those that you've left at home don't hesitate just come to Nicaragua! Besides having a beautiful and rural Market of Crafts in Catarina you can find a series of items in the streets and the Roberto Huembes market.

SINGING AND DANCING:

There may not be a lot of known Nicaraguan artists but there are in fact a lot of talented Nicaraguan singers. The Majias Godoy is a musical group formed by family members. They delight people with their music in their own restaurant. Another remarkable artist is Luis Enrique who is known not just in Nicaragua but in all Latin America. To this you may add their dancing talent which is probably comes from their latin roots.

LITERATURE:

Two words for literature in Nicaragua: Rubén Darío. Off course he is not the only influential poet, there have been many more like Azarias H. Pallais, but Rubén Darío could probably be considered as the most widely known. An innate genius, he wrote his first verses at the age of 13 and further on began the literary movement of Modernism in Latin America. There are also many Nicaraguan literary works worth reading.
