Exploring and Living in Costa Rica: Insights and Advice

I do appreciate that, Francisco. They can buy a plane ticket and come visit me in Costa Rica. That's number one. I have a very large Facebook fan page of 130,000 local Costa Rican Ticos. So when this goes live, you'll have tons of new fans here. And just real quick for your audience, we are north of Panama, south of Nicaragua. Costa Rica is the only democratic society in Central America, and they have no standing army. So they put all their money back into education with a 95% literacy rate. I compete against Amazon, HP, Intel, and Oracle for this labor pool. We're known for the best infrastructure. Ecotourism, Francisco. We got some of the best surfing in the world in Malpais and Hermosa. We have hot springs. People do zip lining and quadriciclos and exploring. But I tell you, my man, if you ever go out into those rainforests, it really is a painting. I mean, it's just gorgeous out there in regards to the plants and the animals and the birds. But Be careful. My suggestion is don't go, you know, trucking around with flip flops on drinking your whiskey. It's kind of dangerous out there. You got to be careful. But it's been a good 23 years.
