Need info about countryside (Alta Verapaz)

10 years ago
Hey everyone! We are a group of 3 people and want to move to Guatemala in Alta Verapaz. We have a few questions about the local customs and way of life:

1.What happens to Chixoy river in the dry season. It dries up or not?

2. Please give me the adress of site in English or Spanish about tropical agriculture and gardening.

3. How often water is extracted in the village? Hand rocking? Wells? Or go to the spring / river?

4. What about the people who assist with the extension of visas ( by taking passports to Mexico)? How much costs it things? And does they prolong visas in Guatemala City and how much it costs. Does that kind of people exists in small towns: San Cristobal Verapaz, Santa Cruz Verapaz, Coban?

Thanks everyone!!!
