Let’s face it; El Salvador doesn’t come with the greatest of reputations. Most people either associate El Salvador with its civil war of the 80s or the vicious street gang Mara Salvatrucha. However, that doesn’t mean that the current El Salvador is a worn-torn gang ruled country unfit for investment. On the contrary, more and more people have stumbled across El Salvador, and discovered its hidden beauty.
