I finally left Honduras for good and am now in Panama City. It's the first time that I'm traveling by myself (until my sister comes in less than a week!!) and I've found that people are friendly and helpful. The lady I was sitting next to on the plane even gifted me a model house after I said I'd never been to Costa Rica, where she was from. Panama City is much bigger and more modern than I imagined and I'm very excited because I can even drink the water write out of the tap!
