Costa Rica Travel Blogs

Background: Costa Rica is a Central American success story: since the late 19th century, only two brief periods of violence have marred its democratic development. Although still a largely agricultural country, it has expanded its economy to include strong technology and tourism sectors. The standard of living is relatively high. Land ownership is widespread.

Hey Everyone! So i think today was my second favorite day here so far. We woke up around 7:45 because Myles set his alarm so we could get to our plans. We got up and headed to Banana Azul to rent some bikes again. We got on the road around 8:45. We were heading to the Jaguar Sanctuary just south of town. The sun was shining, which was nice because the past couple of days have been kind of over cast and rainy. When we got up we did not want to put on any sunblock or bug spray because we [View Full Entry]

Hello friends, Today was not that eventful. But, it is the calm before the storm. Cindy and George are arriving tomorrow night and i am sure we will be very busy showing them around to all our favorite places. I woke up around 8:45 and hung out on the porch waiting for Myles to wake up. I wanted to let him sleep because i know he has been going to bed very late. He got up around 10:30 and we decided to eat some frosted flakes. After breakfast we cleaned the house. We wanted to make it look nice before the [View Full Entry]

I´ve traversed more hills today than I ever cared to. But the rewards were huge...great conversations, wonderful food, deserted private beaches... I attatched myself to a girl from Holland who just finished two months volunteering at a turtle conservation and we went for what turned out to be quite possibly the world´s longest walk. Taking advice from the hostel worker, we took back roads and steep alleys and very probably someone´s backyard to get to what he said would be a beautiful beach. It did not dissapoint. Bath warm water, protected cove, white sand, tide pools. No one there. No one [View Full Entry]

Hey guys, Sorry there hasn't been a blog for the past couple of days. When i was trying to upload some pictures to my last blog the internet stopped working and it would kind of flicker on and off for the past couple of days. Today is the first day that it has worked normally (keep your fingers crossed.). Even though i have not had a chance to write, you haven't missed much. Myles wanted to relax and recoup the past couple of days so that is what we have been doing. He finally feels back to normal this morning, thank [View Full Entry]

How goes it people? So today was interesting. Not exciting, but interesting. I woke up this morning (around 4am) to the sound of Myles getting sick in the bathroom. When we had gone to bed he had been complaining of felling sick. And i knew that i had fallen asleep well before he did. Ive been taking benadryl because i have an ant bite on my foot that has caused my whole ankle to swell. But of course benadryl makes me really sleepy so i have had no problem going to bed the past couple of nights. Anyways, Myles started getting [View Full Entry]

Our goods from the Farmer's Market
hello all, Where to start. Yesterday was Halloween and as we found out, not many people here really care. We got up early and heading into town for the local farmer's market. Got some great stuff for really cheap. Some good fresh bread (which sadly the ants got into already), a pineapple and some grapes. We finally got to try out some fresh coconut. For 300 colones they cut the top off of a coconut with a machete and give it to you to drink. The milk is cool and refreshing! We also bought a kilo of some weird fruit that [View Full Entry]

To whom it may concern, Today started out alright. I woke up around 7:30am feeling a little hungover after last nights festivities. We finally arrived home some time around 1am, which isn't really that late, but here, where the sun goes down at like 4:30, 1am feels late. I got up and decided that i wanted to go to the beach. Myles was still sleeping and i didn't want to force him to get up so i figured this would be a good way to stay busy without bothering him. I got dressed grabbed my towel, and whispered to Myles that [View Full Entry]

Dear Friends and Family, I mentioned in my last blog that we were headed down the road to a hotel out here for some drinks. Well it turns out that you can only go to that bar if you are staying at their hotel. We walked over, sat down, and ordered. We both got a mixed drink call a "pura Vita" its triple sec, tequila, and the local alcohol called Guaro. (which is fermented sugar cane.) The girl brought us our drinks , and just as we were about to take the first sip she asked for our room numbers. We [View Full Entry]

Surfing Paradise! Yesterday Dana was telling me his ideal vacation spot would be in a remote location with rustic living conditions and few other people to share the waves with while surfing. Today we found it! Dana met a Swiss architect who was renting out a big house by himself for a few months and invited us to stay with him. Our answer of course, was yes! To get out there you had to sit or stand in the back of a semi truck crammed full of up to 50 people for an hour drive on the worst roads in Costa [View Full Entry]
