    Hello,
    My son is 18 and went to Costa Rica for about 4 months and loved it. He wants to return after he graduates early from high school in January 2008. We are seeking suggestions for basic employment, like picking fruit in orchards or working on a ranch. Do you have any suggestion? He would like to be staying with a friend who lives in Paraiso.
    Thank you for your help and by the way, you have a very nice blog.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    With Christmas fast approaching, what would be the best way to send christmas gifts? I do not trust the mailing system in CR (just too many stories of items not being delivered). I was thinking of sending these gifts to a local UPS or DHL office and having the receipients picking them up but wasn’t sure if that was feasible. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi!
    does anyone know if it is possible to have cell phone service in Santa Teresa? My husband and i will be there for 5 weeks this winter and have had a really hard time sorting this out.
    many thanks!
    also…a follow up question about internet security (re the recent post on the blog)–are Macs any safer than PCs?

    Hi,
    My husband and I are heading to Costa Rica March 13th-27th for a much belated honeymoon. In just a short time… but we still are not sure what kind of traveling plan to establish. We just found out that it is Holy Week and should book hotels soon but where to go, what to do? I don’t even know where to begin. We are on a budget but would still like to do things like ride horses or see the rain forest or a volcano and explore on foot. We love the beach and are pretty easy going about everything so long as we can find good food. Easy to please!

    Will you help us? Just a few destinations, what to do during Holy week and where we can go during it so we aren’t putting anyone out of a hotel room that wants to be at the beach…

    If there are hotels or cities/town you can suggest and how to get there.

    I know this is above an beyond but since finding out that we will be there over Easter ( 11 minutes ago), I’m in a panic. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you for any suggestions!
    PS- are you from Illinois?

    I am visiting Costa Rica in May for a week and on one of the website a tourist stated that there are rats running around the courtyard in San Jose. Is that true? Is there a rodent problem in Costa Rica?

  12. Tim on March 5, 2008 10:33 am

    Huh? What courtyard?

    I have never seen a rat in San Jose although I cannot imagine that they do not exist as in any major city in the world.

    Hello,
    What kind of income do you need to live comfortably in Costa Rica?? Not fancy, just a decent house in a safe neighborhood and the basics with income left to enjoy the many things I’ve read about in Costa Rica!!
    Thanks.. Mike

    My best friend is from Costa Rica. He has lived in the U.S. for many years now (NYC) and says he would never consider moving back to C.R. because the crime is so bad. He says people are basically prisoners in their own homes because EVERYBODY must have tall iron gates surrounding their residences to keep predators out. The way you describe the petty crime goes hand in hand with most 3rd World impoverished countries experience. If one has to be SO careful and vigilent at ALL TIMES, then you are speaking about a quality of life which is lousy and certainly different from the U.S. where the poverty line is drawn with less distinction. If you’re going to talk about the “Real Costa Rica” then you need to be honest and realistic about the standard of living issues that effect the country as a whole and how that influences crime.

    Our family is planning a trip to San Jose in July and are trying to judge the cost of gas. We are 11 adults and 5 children so are renting a 15 passenger van. What is the cost of gas per gallon currently? Thank you!
