Let me preface this by saying that I am no expert. These are things that have worked for me recently and in the past. These are also things that are […]

Soccer in Costa Rica was insane. Red, white, and blue were the only colors people wore on game days and most other days as well. Women got their nails painted […]
Come check out my entry for the National Geographic Photo Contest. What do you think? The Blue Lagoon – Traveler Photo Contest 2014 – National Geographic. Leave a […]
I have to admit that Jen is one of my best friends. There will be a video coming of us soon doing some funny stuff. Then also some World Cup […]
How do you feel about people that just get tattoos for looks? I personally think that all tattoos should have some meaning, even if it is just “I like it.” […]
Angelina is a free-spirited and positive person to be around. She gives us her first-hand account of culture shock and what it was like for her. I wish you could […]
I am surrounded by people who are at some place on “the W“. When asking friends if they would share their experiences, only a few said they didn’t really get […]
I touched on this topic a bit in my last post and decided to elaborate. I NEVER even thought about culture shock; I didn’t know what it was before I moved […]
“Senior-itus” comes in many forms. Over the past few weeks, it has been a struggle to do much of anything. I have been moving and selling furniture, trying to see […]
Now this may seem redundant. Barva (of Heredia) and San Rafael (of Heredia)… it’s not! Everything in Costa Rica is the same. You would think that with very few street […]

Woke up at 3am to make sure I had everything ready, headed to San José (Costa Rica), made onto the bus at 6am and was off the Granada with my […]
