The thing does not work, not even remotely. Cootel keeps saying it...

Been there a few years ago. Was really nice, but I don't consider it to be overly inexpensive. It's not expensive either.

Over the last 8 years I have seen the rise in nature "retreats"; the type of places that put you in the forest or near the beach and you practice yoga and eat poke bowls and drink Kambucha. These...

Voltz most likely didn't do it. Everyone focuses in on that one item ignoring the heaps of logistical evidence that says he doesn't. She also got much more out of it than you are characterizing her...

Interesting, I do remember speaking that guy on a few occasions, strange he would just be gone.

Are these ruins different from the Canta Gallo ruins? (Some people say they are just natural...

replying the years old post, I know.

The North, in my experience, has been much safer than the south, mainly MGA, Granada, certain areas in Rivas. People generally make more money because of the...

I made a point of asking this question each time I crossed the border into Costa Rica. Most answered very disinterestedly that I could simply turn around and come back when I want, that there was no...

Noted..but then, I would be on the hook for getting a Costa Rica entry stamp, just in case. Of course..who knows.


Ill just pay the fine because..it seems easier then now.

When I go see a movie I will often get a subway in Metro Centro. The price is good and I don´t find that they skimp all that much. One thing I will say, is that they always mess up the bill and...

I have been lazy and realized the other day while watching the baseball game that I haven´t done my visa run for a while. I took out my passport and added it up and I´m about 9 months over..which...
