I loved this country on a college study abroad in 1996, but times are just too different now. Very sad that such a historic and beautiful country has become too dangerous.

I can’t SCUBA for medical reasons, and now I’m glad I can’t. How scary! All experienced divers, all died!!!!

Got a good chuckle from this one! 🤣

A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation in Jerusalem . While they were there, the wife passed away . The undertaker told the husband, "You can have her buried here in the Holy Land for $150 or we can have her shipped back home for $5,000 The husband thought about it and told the undertaker he would have her shipped back home .The undertaker asked him, "why would you spend $5,000 to have her shipped home when you could have a beautiful burial here, and it would only cost $150????"
The husband replied, "Long ago, a man died here, was buried here, and three days later, rose from the dead . I just can’t take that chance!"

🌴 Costa Rica Climate Myths… Let’s Clear a Few Things Up

I hear these all the time from buyers 👇

❌ “It rains all day during rainy season”
❌ “Just drive 10 minutes up the mountain and you’ll find a totally different climate”

Not quite.

The reality is a lot more nuanced—and a lot more interesting.

☀️ Most rainy season days are actually sunny in the morning, with showers rolling in later in the afternoon
🌡️ Climate doesn’t change much just going a couple hundred meters up from the coast
⛰️ The real game changer? Altitude

Once you get up into that 800–1,000 meter range, everything shifts:
✔️ Cooler temperatures
✔️ Less humidity
✔️ Much more comfortable day-to-day living

And here’s the part a lot of people don’t realize…

In places like Pérez Zeledón, you can enjoy that ideal climate and still be less than an hour from the beach.

That’s a pretty rare combo.

I broke all of this down (including a few other misconceptions) in a quick blog post here 👇
