Teculutan

Just in case your curious about what a home might look like here in 
Teculutan, Guatemala...
A typical wooden style home (Outside)
Inside the wooden home... you can see the dinning room table, the armoir and the stove

This is a very common mud home just outside the city, built of just that sticks and mud!

...and what I like to call a "sign" home.. built of... you guessed it, signs!!!

Of course just like in the states, neighborhoods and types of homes range... there are beautiful homes built behind walls that I'll never get the privileged of seeing and then there are your average block homes... just one big room divided up into spaces for sleeping, eating, and cooking!  I have yet to find a "middle class" here, it seems that you are either very impoverished or very rich!
