¡Hola!
For the month of June I will be in COSTA RICA with a program called the Institue for Central American Development Studies, or ICADS. It is a well-respected Costa Rican institution which focuses on the Central American social, political and environmental issues that shape what the region and the world is today. ICADS students share an interest and a concern for becoming informed and educated on these serious issues. The four-week program I have chosen to participate in is a Spanish language immersion course. I will be living in San José with a host family and attending class 4½ hours a day 5 days a week. On weekdays, after class the program allows us to volunteer in various ways. We also have many cultural activities to participate in. On the weekends I will be traveling around the country.
Come along with me while I explore the most bio-diverse place on the planet. I'll have pictures and stories and, hopefully, some video too! Leave comments and e-mail me if you'd like. I'd love to hear from everyone! Wish me luck with my PURA VIDA experience...
¡Chau! 😉
