My husband and I, Patrick and Carolyn, are enjoying an adventure! We are from Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, and we are learning a new language, new customs, and exploring a culture-rich country called El Salvador. We accept friends and guests in our beach house, and take them on day or overnight tours of El Salvador treasures and beyond her borders.

We own and manage a delightful and unique, tropical Guest House on the Pacific Ocean in El Salvador, Central America. For additional information check out our website at www.thelaughingpelican.com.

We love to have individuals and families come and relax in the hammocks under the palms, frolic in the surf on boogie boards, or walk the miles of sandy beach listening to the crashing surf.

Meals are included and we serve orgainic foods, healthy snacks along with cold beer or wine for dinner. We serve local fish, seafood, chicken and even lamb and beef.

The city (San Salvador) malls are amazingly big, and there are 13 volcanoes all withing the distance of half the size of Vancouver Island. There are Mayan Ruins to explore and volcano parks to discover with botanical and orchid gardens, plus organic coffee plantations to be checked out and sampled. There are museums that explain and help you sense the pain and anger of the war that ended 13 years ago. There is massive construction and regrowth everywhere in El Salvador.

We are choosing to be a part of this regrowth and regeneration of a wonderful culture with sincere and loving people.
