I love Playa Hermosa for the different cultures of its people; the mix of luxury properties with the humble houses of the local Ticos, in a relatively new community. There are still hundreds of monkeys and a multitude of wild animals that live with the people of this beach community. While most residents are foreigners, Playa Hermosa has a very...
The thing that I like about living in the Papagayo region is that most of the time you feel like you´re surrounded by a tropical rustic environment. The people are humble and simple, and they live their life in a slow pace compare to the North Americans. You will see a loose horse in front of a Pulperia (Small store), pigs on the side of the...
In the last 8 years, we've seen a lot of new building construction and services in our area, and private schools have gotten much better. Many schools are bigger now or offer new services that weren't available before, like sending trained babysitters to help parents who need to travel. Delfin School used to be just a small elementary school, but...
The Green Season Kicks Off Just two weeks ago, everyone in the region was talking about the lack of rain we've had this year, but they seemed to forget about September and October. The rains over the past four days have been significant, and they could last until November 15! I love this time of year—the real green season; everything is as...
Although my favorite places in Costa Rica are the beaches, I also enjoy the mountainous areas of the country. Every time I visit my two children, Bianca, 12, and Jourdan, 20, who live in Atenas with my first wife, I try to find something special to do to make the most of the short time I have with them. One place that I've known and liked for over...
The Costa Rican "Spring Break" spans a 2-week period in July. Students here are fond of visiting many of the beaches we're fortunate to have in abundance. This year, my eldest daughter Bianca, who resides in Atenas near San Jose, came to see us in Guanacaste, especially her little sister Samantha, who is almost 3 years old. The main draws of the...
When you're traveling in a tropical and exotic country, you don't really pay much attention to whether the area is socially developed or what kind of services are available to the residents. You're mainly interested in seeing what you can't find back home: different cultures, monkeys, wild animals, jungles, nature, hidden beaches, etc. You might...
The Costa Rica Police Force Continues to Improve For many years, the Police Force in Costa Rica did not have a very good reputation due to a limited budget, poor management, and a shortage of well-trained officers. It was common for police to respond to emergency calls hours after a crime had occurred. Consequently, many homes in local...
Playa Panama, Where the Beach is Calm and Secure During my 32 years in Costa Rica I have visited dozens of beaches, always trying to find the best one based on the color of the sand and the clarity of the water! I always wondered why so many Costa Rican families visited Playa Panama in the Gulf of Papagayo when there are so many other...
