Mailing address

The mail system is supposedly not so hot between the US and Guatemala, and can take 4-6 weeks for letters to get back or forth. That said, here is my mailing address in Guatemala until I say otherwise!

PCT Meredith Clote
Cuerpo de Paz
Apartado Postal 66
Antigua Guatemala
Sacatepequez 03001
Guatemala
Central America

According to PC, you shouldn't send expensive items through the mail because of a high incidence of theft and heavy customs taxes. They recommend that packages be sent in padded envelopes if possible because boxes tend to be taxed and opened more frequently. There's no guarantee that items will arrive, but for cheap stuff, it's worth a shot!
