But alas, the time had come to leave the freezing winter and get to sunny, beautiful, Costa Rica. I left on February 27th. I flew into San Jose and spent the night at a very cute hostel run by two lovely Costa Ricans (Ticos). The following morning I decided to get out of the city (didn't explore it at all) and head straight to the beach. After a grueling 7 hour bus ride (no air conditioning) I made it to Tamarindo- home of the gringos (white people). There are many tourists here but the beaches are so nice that it doesn't really bother me much. I have spent the past week making friends, hanging out at the beach and by the pool at my hostel. Needless to say, I'm in heaven!
On Monday I will move north to Playas del Coco and then on to Nicaragua where I will be working on a permaculture farm on la Isla de Ometepe.
Apologies in advance because it is not likely that I will update the blog very much while down here. The beach is just too tempting!
Hasta luego!
