  1. It is incredible that they have the wrong concept of Salvadorans us at least in most non we dress well as the top that this is not where this bag and this defasado but the best way to find out how we are visiting our country

    I am Salvadoran by birth and live in this beautiful country


  2. Well (elderly)women wear dresses and it's like here only more different some people are poor and stuff and the men wear well obsely the same clothes here and some with kids but.. some people are poor and stuff

  3. MAN

    Mostly people dress like me and you. Men usually wear their shirts tucked in and carry their hair well groomed.

    MEN IN THE FARM

    Will usually wear a long sleeve button up shirt, tucked into their pants and a sombrero (not like the big round mexican ones but more like the cowboy kind or a normal baseball cap). They will usually carry a Machete (although now it has become illegal to carry it in the city to a degree...) Long ago it was also common to see these people bearing a small calabash. Usually used to store water . Now people use water bottles or plastic containers. Still I believe that the calabash was way better because it kept the water really cool.

    WOMEN (NATIVE)

    The native (Nauat) speaking people will sometimes dress different. The woman could wear a home made multicolour dress that has multi use. It can be used as a blanket. a dress and when used as a dress it has a small pouch on the side to carry around stuff.....usually it was used to carry tortillas but over time people have adapted its use to many different things.....They also wear a white shirt with flower decorations embroidered on it and a multicolour cloth over their heads which I also believe has multiple uses.

    WOMEN (EVANGELIC or CHRISTIAN)

    The large amount of Evangelic women will usually wear a Manto on their heads.....it is a white or blue cloth and almost always wear long skirts.

    WOMEN and MAN IN GERERAL

    Will dress like anyone else in America. People like to dress up, Usually I would say that it is most common to dress light due to the weather.....hot.

    Although it can get a bit cold in the morning. Fashion is almost identical to America and you can see name brands being sold almost everywhere.

    IN THE MARKET

    You will almost always see women wearing a very nicely decorated and embroidered apron tied at the waist. These aprons are almost used like purses. Overtime it has become so popular that women especially older woman will wear them out to town instead of just wearing them in the kitchen. This has particularly evolved this way I believe because of the way they are fashioned .....very highly decorated. You can imagine them as being a cash box for the women who sell in the market or for older ladies you can imagine it as a sort of purse. Not particularly popular among younger ladies unless they are selling something in the market.

    STUDENTS

    Students will usually go to school wearing a white dress shirt and blue pants and black shoes for boys. Girls will wear a white top and blue skirt.

    OLDER GENERATION

    Woman will almost always wear skirt or dress. Men will almost always wear a button up dress shirt and dress pants.

    GROOMING

    It use to be common to see women with their hair tied up in a bun but now it is common for girls to have long hair and styled

    or highlighted

    For guys it is common to see them well groomed.

    TOUCH and TIME

    TOUCH is something that is not considered to be a bad thing. People will usually shake your hand upon meeting you for the first time. It is okay to hug a female instead of shake her hand if you are also a female. Although this may not be a good idea for guys. People are friendly and it is probably because of the number of people around.

    TIME is no different from here. People will usually tend to work all day and way after 9 hours. Ten hour days are pretty common for work.

    In smaller towns people will usually get up very early, if you walk down a street you can hear people making tortillas or having loud music playing on their stereo.

  4. It really doesn't matter, I lived in El Salvador 15 years, I'm now here in Gringoland, lol....

    But It really doesn't matter...

    I\ve seen people and tourists dress the way they want... so....now u know...

  5. why dont you check Wikipedia?. they'll give you a brief in the basics about the country.

  6. they are regular people like you and me so they are not that different
