Resurrection in El Salvador, 2005
By Rick Steves
The following is a report written after a six day "educational seminar" in El Salvador. The trip was built around the events memorializing the 25th anniversary of the assassination of Romero in San Salvador. For me personally, it was an effort to better understand the effects of globalization (from the point of view of a poor nation) and follow up on the rich travel experiences and education I had with the same educational tour company in 1989 and 1991. While there's nothing like actually being there, it's my hope that this report can be the next best thing for whoever's interested. Thanks for traveling with me through this journal.
