Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Guatemala accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Guatemala and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"Most are either catholic or evangelists and are very liberal in accepting differences from foreign cultures, especially if their is a profit in it," remarked another expat who made the move to San Pedro La Laguna, Guatemala.
"Esquipulas is the center of faith in Central America, but it does not dominate every day living. The economy of the town is based on religon (Catholic). The economy is tied to tourisum and religon," explained one expat living in Esquipulas, Guatemala.
