I was born there and have not been back since 92. everyone i talk to just tells me the bad stuff about it (gangs) but i would love to take my wife and daughter so they can see where i am from and share that beauty. i dont know much about it either since i came to live here when i was 7. can anyone share if its safe or not?
I am dying to visit and explore its culture and background despite its bloody history. The only intimidating factor is the violence i am always reading about…any feedback for a solo traveler?
El Salvadaor had the highest murder rate of any country It's usually #1 or #2 on the list of countries having the most homicides, the other being Honduras or Colombia
My parents are both from El Salvador but my whole family is from Spain living in El Salvador and yes I'm brown, but it's nice being a Salvadoraño Española
doesn't the video mention that without a driver you can't go anywhere because you risk (at least) to be robbed? the country is beautiful, but you have to be careful. This video sounds like if you're going to disneyland
it's funny how some of you are talking about solely about the violence in el salvador because i have news for you america has violence too is not just about disneyland because you guys have to have your stupid guns and you guys love to kill people don't you? i love my country you retarded haters
all of guys are so scared, El Salvador is a great country and I live here and thank God nothing has ever happened to me. It depends where you go in El Salvador and what areas are dangerous, if it was such a horrible and scary country then there wouldn't be 6 million people living here.
I'm Canadian, been there 7 times (I'm here right now). Do NOT believe all the lies about the violence, it in only one small area, but the country in general is stunningly beautiful, people are super friendly, and the beaches…ahhhh the beachs….paradise on earth!
Thats cool
My mom is from San Salvador and my dad is from Sonsonate
Cool. I'm half salvadorena (or if that how u spell it) from my dad and my other half is Mexican from my mother.
Me half guanco
El salvador has one of the most famous and top 10 beaches in the world for surfing
I was born there, and it is alright if you pick the right spots.

Just stay with someone who knows the place (guide) and relax, you won't enjoy if you're worrying all the time 🙂 Go to playa el tunco !
Thanks a lot my friend 🙂
