Justice ;) Hi Sweet Girl- you certainly did our vacation justice with your beautiful writing. Reading this latest entry brought the adventures we experienced on our wonderful trip to the forefront. I so appreciate this blog.
Pura Vida :)
epic yo cad, the whitewater rafting looks epic, i'm very jealous, although it sounds scary to fall out.
the tucan pic is sick
but i don't think i have ever heard your denzel voice
Wishing you wonderful adventures! Yay Cara! I love your blog, of course, and am always so glad to hear that you're enjoying your adventures. Keep on loving it! It's beautiful here in Fredericton today and I can feel Spring coming (or is that wishful thinking?) We had R.A. Appreciation Day yesterday and missed you! But you're doing much more exciting things than bowling at Kingswood. Eat some pineapple for me - I saw Costa Rican ones at the market this morning but resisted temptation because that's SO not local. Wishing you all the best and lots of love and luck!
wow Hi Cara...I called your Mom yesterday to wish them safe travel and an early Happy Birthday. I mentioned Dan's trip to Costa Rica last year and how impressed he was with the natural beauty so she sent me this link. I hope you don't mind but I'm going to pass it on to Dan.
It was exciting reading this; felt like I was there...when you fell in the water my heart was beating a little faster
(probably not as fast as yours was at the time). Enjoy the visit with the family and be sure to keep an extra watch on your Dad... :)
toes in the surf, choteo, and more Awww, I was looking for the next entry! Then I realized the date on this one was February 19, Patrick's birthday, and Caracita, he would have loved reading through your blogs, too. Your pictures are wonderful. Thanks for sharing your adventures and your thoughts, you sweet niece!
Love you, miss you... Aunt Eileen P.S. I can think of some people who are very anxious to see you about now!
Great Stuff! Hi My Carita,
What great things you're being exposed to in Costa Rica! Your hosts seem like true gems. Mami's birthday celebration sounds very special and I think it's so cool that you were there to witness the election of the country's first female president. Way to go Laura!
We'll be there in less then a week, can you believe it? Can't wait-
Love you lots!
PS- You look adorable in these pictures :)
Keep dancing! Hi My Carita, I can picture you dancing on the beach... I've got plenty of memories of the real thing to help me imagine you footloose and fancy free on the beaches in Costa Rica ;) I love reading about all you're experiencing. I love the pictures, too. Who are the people in the pics? I'm SO looking forward to seeing you soon.
Keep posting-
I love you.
ummmmm..... Hi Cara!!! I am sooooo very new to this blogging thing. I just got the link from your mama. I am so happy to hear about your adventures and all that you are up to. It is just taking me a bit to figure out how to navigate this thing... Hope things continue to be great for you.
Love,
LynnAnn
HAAHHAHABAHAAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA "As you can see I've been trying to see the world through different eyes down here" HAHAAHAHAHAHAH I bet you thought that was really funny. I did. Did you like avatar? I HATED IT. Love youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Steezy Blog Post yo cad, great entry. you go so into detail it is amazing. i could never go into so much detail. perhaps you should consider doing something in writing. everything about costa rica sounds so awesome. continue to have as much fun as possible!
Wow Cara! Cara, I can't believe all you've seen and done already, incredible! Your writing is so beautifly descriptive, I found myself reading with a grin from ear to ear, enjoying every word. I imagine Thomas (Mr. Steeze, himself) is now even more anxious to visit Costa Rica. Thank you for sharing Cara - love you!
What a weekend! Wow! Sounds like some incredible experiences. I love reading about them. Continue to take advantage of the opportunities the program offers because I suspect the sense of urgency you're feeling is a very real thing. Time is going to fly. I love you sweetie!
Oh, this is so exciting! I know it's difficult to enjoy the moist air, but be thankful that your skin isn't scaly and peeling from the arctic dryness settling over Fredericton! And you will require less and less aspirin the more you ride ... hopefully you can stick with it! I'm jealous!
Thank you for your bit on Che Guevara. His picture is EVERYWHERE in Cuba ... on t-shirts, houses, government buildings, everywhere. But we didn't know the story behind the man while we were there. I think we've learned more about the country since we've come back! I did feel the same thing as you while I was there, though. I wanted to keep listening and listening because, not only does it make the person feel important, it's one of the best and only ways to learn. Maybe you can do a little listening and learning at the discoteca ;)
Sí se puede! Cara, this is incredible! I'm so happy to hear your semester's getting off to a great start. And also that you have words of the day, what a good idea. The courseload sounds quite challenging, but I know you're up to it. Cheers to PROBAR.
As a side note, the first thing I noticed when I walked outside this morning also happened to be the air. It burned my throat and froze my eyelashes together. Disfruta el sol costarricense!
Cuidate querida amiga

Such a cool niece! Cara - All of it sounds so wonderful, except for you being exhausted that first night - and that's because you were up to God-only-knows what hour the night before! Thank you for providing us with this blog, I will look forward to reading about everything! You guys are keeping me young - I've never blogged before and I think I'm gonna like it! Wear sunscreen on those days you don't have your nose in your books. Enjoy, be safe, love you!
Cara, this sounds like it's going to be a truly magnificent journey and adventure for you! I am so excited to continue reading about your time in Costa Rica. I loved the last paragraph, about "probar"...that seems like a perfect way to sum up what you're doing! Keep on enjoying and never hesitate to try everything and anything (well, safely!). Hasta luego!! (One of the few Spanish things I can say!)
Really liking this Cad Really liking this blog Cad, I figured I'd put a comment here because there's a comment box, but I will also write in your facebook comment box right now.

This is why I want to travel.
Here is what it means:
“Because I didn’t want to walk the earth like a stranger.”
Hola Amigos!
I have created this travel blog to document my adventures in Costa Rica where I will be living and studying for the next three months. As all of the writing I will be doing for my classes here will be in Spanish I thought this blog would be a good way for me to unwind and to keep my North American friends updated.
Pura Vida a todos!... full info
