Managua×Guadalajara
Three numbers. The ones that decide the meeting.
When the world meets at work.
Read the day in both zones.
Crossing the border. Money, language, plugs.
Money changes hands at the border: Managua uses the NIO (C$) and Guadalajara uses the MXN ($). Conversations can stay in Spanish, which is official in both countries. Cars drive on the right in both, so rentals feel familiar.
