Guatemala: Where to live near Antigua with kids:
Hello all
I would like some advice on kid friendly neighborhoods around Antigua.
I lived in Antigua for a year, 16 years ago and just have a calling to go back for a while and raise by daughter who is now 4.
I just want a simpler life where I am not planning playdates and everything is so formal here in the States. I remember in Guatemala, we would just pop in to people's houses and have conversations and just feel at home. I understand I may be romanticizing living there and maybe oblivious to the harsh reality of the daily grind. I was single and lived out of a backpack then. This time, we will be doing it as a family with considerably more belongings!
I still want to give it a try though.
So anyway, my question is - where is a good place to look for housing where kids can play with neighbors and there is a sense of community.
My sense is central Antigua is not a good fit but I don't know where else?
Also, we would be looking for elementary schools so I would love some suggestions there too.
Thanks!!
