In this Part 2 video of our insane journey through Central America, we show you THREE MORE borders. The most complicated border experience we've ever experienced was Honduras. Here, we were extorted for around $65 USD. Honestly, it was the first border that we had experienced any corruption (most of these Central American borders are very professional and, in our experience, free from corruption). After finally getting through Honduras about $100 USD poorer than when we left, we almost got stuck at the Nicaragua border that same day. Crossing borders where you don't speak the language can be confusing, scary, and LONG. So we show you in this video what mistakes we made that you shouldn't ;) and what to expect when you cross Central American borders with a vehicle.

We're Christian and Aubry, a couple traveling North and South America in our converted Sprinter Van.
