Everything to do with the USA's own Imperial Backyard. From hispanics to the originary peoples of the americas to the diasporas, South America to Central America, to the Caribbean to North America (yes, we're also there).

Post memes, art, articles, questions, anything you'd like as long as it's about Latin America. Try to tag your posts with the language used, check the tags used above for reference (and don't forget to put some lime and salt to it).

Here's a handy resource to understand some of the many, many colloquialisms we like to use across the region.

I'm going to Costa Rica, specifically traveling to San José and the neighboring cities for a study abroad hosted by my university (for about 9 days) I'll be staying with a host family while there for the first half.

Any advice for a first time traveler to Central America? I'm a spanish major but I've only traveled to Madrid before in high school for another study abroad. Any tips for navigating Costa Rican culture compared to other países hispanohablantes?
