You will practice and improve your conversational Spanish while enjoying hot coffee with señor Hector and señora Blanca, caretaker, who visit the house regularly. The residential area in Atami is great for walking and jogging.
During your free time you can learn how to surf in Palmarcito beach and/or you can practice more advance surfing at El Sunzal, El Zonte, Punta Roca, etc. You can also explore El Tunco, Tamanique town/cascades, La Libertad city, Santa Tecla and San Salvador, all accessible by public or private transportation.
Other points of interest include Tazumal, Suchitoto, Joyas de Ceren (the Pompeii of America), Santa Ana Volcanoe, Voqueron National Park, Apaneca labyrinth (the largest in Central America) etc. As well, from El Tunco, you can take a shuttle directly to Antigua (Guatemala), Utila (Honduras) and/or Leon (Nicaragua).
Cultural events in El Salvador have been suspended due to COVID. However, they included:
Semana Santa from late March through Easter Sunday;
Fiestas Julias in the city of Santa Ana through the month of July;
Fiestas agostinas in early August (it is a national holiday);
"Bolas de fuego" celebrations in late August in Nejapa;
Fiestas de Independencia on September 15;
Carnival de San Miguel in November (Source: iExplore).
Ayuda
I need help with painting walls and handrails, and varnishing doors and tables. If you have background in landscaping, construction, or house repairs/renovations (concrete houses) would be great!

Staying with Ramon was amazing. He was very welcoming and I really enjoyed my time there. I learnt some interesting board games and ate lots of mangoes everyday. It was a lovely place to stay at with a good surfing beach nearby. Jonathan was the friendliest cat I've ever met. Hopefully I will return someday soon!
