Murra, Nicaragua Photography
About Murra: For seven months I lived in Murra, a small municipal head in the Nueva Segovia region of Nicaragua, with my wonderful girlfriend Carrie. The tiny pueblo has a population of approximately 1,000 inhabitants and is made up of four barrios (neighborhoods) squeezed into a narrow valley high in the mountains. The people in Murra make their living primarily farming corn and beans and raising coffee. Although its population is small, Murra is the center for many rural communities (about 17,000 people in total live throughout the entire municipal region) so many people also make a living as shop owners and vendors. Situated in a high mountainous region, Murras climate is significantly cooler than much of Nicaragua. Murra has electricity and a running water system.
