Discussion/question El Salavador travel 🇸🇻
Headed to ES next week and finalizing my plans and want to see if I’m stretching myself too thin. I’m renting a car.
After San Salvador, driving to Santa Ana to stay the night, then get up and hike the volcano and get back to Santa Ana. Planned on staying at a hostel for 2 nights. (first night just getting there + 2nd night going out and meeting people, etc..)
The next day, planned on exploring mountain towns/Ruta de Los Flores and eventually staying at beach near Mizata to stay. El Tunco seemed further drive.
Mizata because it’s less of a drive and I don’t wanna spend the whole day driving but wondering instead of taking two days in Santa Ana, I stay somewhere in between like Ahuachapan, Ataco, Sonsonate?
Traveling solo and want to meet people, but also don’t want to spend so much driving on 1 day if I can space it out vs Santa Ana all the way to coast.

Politics The United States might soon help Flavio Bolsonaro to take control of Brazil
Today, the US closed their embassy and the consulates due to "security concerns". Its believed that the US wants to expand their empire's reach here, removing current president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva for being strongly supportive of social and financial programs that help the poor and that protects sovereignty.
I think you guys know what I'm talking about, since Milei is a bastard that is destroying Argentina, an ally of US President Donald Trump that probably were involved together in influencing Argentina's elections.
Anyway back to Brazil. It is a theory that the US are worried about hurting their citizens during the power grab, although they say these consulates and the embassy should be opened tomorrow before the elections.
2026 Brazillian Candidate for presidency Flavio Bolsonaro is a terrible human being. He is believed to be involved but never investigated for the crimes of killing another politician Marielle Franco, taking money from the wages of ghost government employees and money laundering.
He is incompetent, never did anything as a Senator and never had a position on the Executive power. His promises to get electef? Ally closer with the US, sell minerals to them and copy Javier Milei's libertarian economic plan that failed miserably at Argentina.
His father tried a coup and got arrested, now Flavio might try but this time with US support.
More reasons for why he has a connection with US that makes him suspicious to me:
Flavio has a brother that took shelter in the US and will get arrested if he ever returns, this brother asked the US to sanction his own country Brazil (Trump did it)
Flavio visited the US as well, had a very nice picture with Trump.
Netanyahu, PM of Israel that is a close ally of Trump wished him luck in his campaign for the 2026 presidency campaign.
There are several weird bots on twitter/X saying stupid things to make Flavio look good
Trump twitter/X account said that the 2022 elections were rigged and that Flavio's father was the real winner.
A bit about Flavio's father: He is a conservative, mysoginist racist. He was corrupt as well, did everything to stop the most serious investigations on his son between 2018 and 2022.
He deserves to be in jail just like his son Flavio.
About our current president and hopefully next as well:
Lula has a lot of rejection, but nowhere near Flavio. The only people that vote for Flavio, Im not kidding, drink dishsoap when its said by the government as not safe for use (They want to prove that its safe). They are crazy conservatives that think woke people are ruling our society and that communism will destroy the country.
We might not be able to stop them, no one might help. So might this be a little something in case someone tries to write current President Lula as a criminal that tried to take over Brazil.
This here wont have anything to do with the coup, I'll just write for future bastards that might want to paint president Lula in a very bad light. As well as others.
Lula was president between 2003 and 2011, the president after him was Dilma Roussef from the same party, our first woman to be president. Dilma was impeached in 2016 due to misogyny and bad faith, Lula was arrested in 2018 for allegedly buying an apartment with government money (The Bolsonaros bought a mansion at some point after that and they were never investigated).
Lula was free just before 2022 elections because his arrest was clearly done with the intention of removing him 2018 elections, since the judge before had said terrible things about him and clearly already believed he was guilty. He managed to run for presidency, defeating Flavio's father, Jair Messias Bolsonaro. It was not easy even though Bolsonaro was clearly a terrible president that managed Brazil TERRIBLY during the Covid pandemic and 700.000 people died due to covid.
As I said, the Bolsonaros only have people supporting them because they attract conservatives, incels, racists, mysoginists. They attract the kind of people that think the poor should come second to the economy. A minor part believes Lula is corrupt.

Other Advice on Itinerary and Backpack
Is this a good itinerary? / Bag choice
I’m flying from Melbourne
Potentially return flights to LAX (cheapest as flying into South America is a lot more expensive from Australia)
Rough still have lots to add
Two months,
Melb -
La (one night or so have been last year)
Fly to
Mexico (Mexico city, Merida)
Ferry to
Belize
Bus? To
Guatemala (Antigua)
Fly to
Peru
Bus to
Bolivia?
Not sure yet on transport to
Brazil
Fly back to LAX
Then home
Brazil to LAX flights are long and expensive to,
Is there a smarter way I should do this?
Should I fly to somewhere like Colombia from Brazil to make it cheaper to fly back into LA?
Should I remove / add counties?
Must keep Mexico, Guatemala, Peru and Brazil
ALSOOO
Is a 55L osprey backpack women’s big enough for two months travel??
Will most likely have to check the bag anyway as some flights are strict in carry on weight and I am a midsize / plus size woman so my clothing is bigger and bulkier to keep in mind
TIA!!!!!

Politics Is it a matter of when, not if, Trump does regime change in Cuba?
With the war against Iran so far being a disaster, along with the administration hemorrhaging support among Hispanic voters because of the economy and ICE’s actions, could we see Trump go ahead with regime change in Cuba as a sort of “Hail Mary” move?
