Why do so many people leave Costa Rica within 3 years? After hitting that mark ourselves, we decided to reflect on our time here, and share a bit about what we've learned, what we regret, and tips and advice on how to come to love the Pura Vida life!

One of my favorite things about moving here, is trying out all of the AMAZING fruits and vegetables here, most of which I had never heard of before!
Have you ever tried one before, or one of its many cousins (like its temperate one up north, the Pawpaw)?

The recent strikes in neighboring Panamá had an impact on more than just the government and the communities...it also prevented people from driving their vehicles into the country! Which can...cause some necessary thinking on your feet when you have to do a border run!
So give it a view!

Moving abroad to Costa Rica is no small feat! Especially when it comes to downsizing and figuring out what to bring with you when you first move!
In our next video, we go through our process, and how we decided to make the decisions on what stuff would accompany us on that initial flight!

Donald playing golf every weekend isn't just an opportunity to ignore the problems of the American people, it is also an opportunity to rip off the American taxpayers.
Here is a bill the Secret Service got for staying at Mar-a-Lago for a few days in his first term.
42 rooms at $396.15/night.

This is why you fight these cowards.
The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.
Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.
He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

An unidentified “hacker” accessed the computer file featuring information about the Matt Gaetz report.
Now more than ever US officials need to release the report to the public & avoid any data tampering or tainting situations. Increase the pressure on them. #opdeatheaters
