How I built a Successful Resort in Nicaragua at 21 Years Old with No Money
Build your own Resort? At 19 and 21? We don’t all have the courage and guts to do what these 2 young men from Canada have done. But I know we all think about it sometimes. These guys have a great story of hard work, maybe a little luck and a lot of perseverance.
At the ages of 19 and 21, in Kelowna, B.C, Canada, my brother Travis and I booked a plane ticket to Nicaragua, after an unrealistic conversation about owning land while drinking in our parents hot tub.
We grew up skateboarding and doing a variety of action sports, and the idea was to buy some land, and build a skateboard park, airbag jump, rock climbing wall, paintball, etc…all surrounded by a resort where people could stay and take part in these activities. The world’s first action sports resort.
The only problem, was that we had no experience, and no money.
