Title
Central American Exports - arts and crafts products in Central America, Costa Rica Nicaragua
Description
Central American Exports is part of the dream started back in 1997 when we decided to go on an adventure, a long lasting and life changing adventure. Our dream was to live and experience the culture of Latin America. We sold most of what we owned and left a very comfortable lifestyle in California to open a restaurant on a beach in Costa Rica. Although our focus has changed, our love of this area has not. We have remained in Costa Rica but have embarked on another adventure which allows us to travel, practice our new found language, support the native people and bring beautiful products to you, our friends and family.
On our many journeys through Costa Rica, Panama and Nicaragua, we have sought out artisans and developed relationships with the local people. Throughout our web site we have highlighted some of these artisans to give you a better understanding of who they are, how they live and how these humble people have overcome hardships in a world far different from our own. Many of the trades are passed down from generation to generation and are practiced with fierce loyalty to their heritage. Change is not easy for these people, therefore, the products which are made today are very simular to the way they were made hundreds of years ago.
Not everything in our travels is pleasant. An example of this is the hundreds of street children in one of our favorite places, Granada, Nicaragua. In response to this, we made the decision to donate $1.00 to Casa Alianza for every typical Nicaraguan doll sold. Casa Alianza provides food, clothing and shelter for many of these children but, like many other non-profit organizations, funds are not available to help all the children.
