Right now I am sitting on the ship back to San José from the Nicoya Peninsula (where Montezuma is located) with beautiful views all around of calm water and islands. Yesterday I had an awful experience but I'll start at the beginning. On Monday morning after one last night in La Fortuna I started my [...]
Moment of silence for this breathtaking picture (still looks even better in real life)... Ok, As it is my last week in Costa Rica I really want to see some last few spots. For this trip I didn't go by myself but went with a friend from the toucan rescue ranch. On Saturday morning we [...]
Just came back from a long bus ride from Puerto Viejo a town by the Caribbean Sea. I am really tired but I will try my best to write this post. Yesterday I arrived in the small town where people from all over the world have settled. I was greeted by very hot and humid [...]
First trip completely by myself, not feeling 100% healthy but still the urge for adventure pulses through my veins. So on my two free days this week I pack my backpack, book a hotel and get up at 5 am in the morning, rush to my Uber, buy my bus ticket and am off on [...]

So on Friday after school I decided I wanted to go to the Playa Blanca, a very nice beach close to Jacó. Another girl and I waited at the bus station, but then called an Uber (even though there was a slim chance that there would be one, since there are non in this area). [...]
It's crazy how fast time passes! My next week in Costa Rica is almost over. I switched to the other location of the school in Jacó, a beach town at the Pacific. It's just two hours from San José but very different: the temperature is about twenty degrees warmer (for me almost too hot, and [...]
What a first week. I don't even know where to start! In the school this week we were 8 people all together, which was very strange but also really nice in such a small circle! In my class I was with just one other girl. The day went from 8 o'clock until 11:45 so the [...]
So I guess I'm in Costa Rica now! It's crazy how in just an hour plane flight I'm here. I arrived on Friday in San José and was brought to the school. I definitely understand what people meant when they said they avoided San José: traffic and run-down houses next to each other. However the [...]
