An Expat Talks About What It is Like to Move to If you have money, anything you need is available. PriceSmart in Managua has upscale appliances, big TV's and many Kirkland (Costco) branded items.

TSA in Tucson did confiscate two large cans of tuna from her carry on. Nicaragua has always been a moving target. What's true today doesn't necessarily hold true tomorrow., Nicaragua, Report 79418 | Expat Exchange
