Listen Later

In Episode 80 I sat down with expat JJ Yemma at his new restaurant Todo Con Amor in Virgen Morena Nicaragua. JJ got here in the late nineties with some friends and discovered a Nicaragua much different then all the stigma that surrounded it. At eighteen he immediately formulated a plan to move to Nicaragua and become a surf bum. Now twenty years later he's left a lasting impression on the area surfers know as Popoyo. JJ continues to reinvent himself and shape the community in a positive way. Enjoy!
