guestExcellent. Very informative. Thank you.
zup757I am an expat living in Managua with my girl friend and my baby girl. I seem to have very expensive energy bills and we don't use the energy that much. The energy bill last month was $300.00+. We had the energy company check to make sure the energy meters were working properly and the electric workers said they were. I was told by a local that people steal electricity and the power company charges people that are more wealthy, more for energy to make up for the people that steal the energy. Does anyone know if this is true and what if anything I can do to keep my energy bills low? Thanks. Joel
guestThis is great information and a nice overview of what to expect. Does anyone have any information about cities/towns in the mountains that have an expat community and reasonable internet service? Look forward to hearing from and getting to know some of you.
guestThank you for your info. I have lived in Chinandega and in Granada for 6 months out of each of 3 years. The people are friendly but one does need to be aware of belongings. I felt discouraged with the amount of litter. Education should provide opportunities for those who need a trade and have only primary education. - ESL teacher - B.C. Canada
