What does Costa Rica offer?

An off the beaten path, unforgettable vacation that you and your traveling companions will be talking about for years to come. I made 10 trips before moving and had so many adventures that I ended up writing two books about my experiences here!

For the last three visits, I had been contracted by a hospitality management firm to stay at their hotels. All their hotels are small and off the beaten path but still 5-star accommodations, service and food. A perfect balance, especially for this solo traveler.

Boutique, eco hotels that not only think about their bottom line (profit), but also the people (their team), place (local community) and the planet. And not just greenwashing, when they recommend you don’t change your towels and sheets every day – I mean like having pigs on the property that produce enough methane gas to power the staff’s kitchen stove.
