Was our thoughts when we finally arrived at Treevana in Cocles. We met the owners, Lori and Ricky, at a restaurant on the one real road there is here — their treat. Super nice people, and we got an amazing first impression of them (and hopefully the same the other way...

Cahuita has been on our must do list since we planned on going to Costa Rica. We were super bummed when we found out about the storm hitting the Caribbean cost, cause we knew it would mean that we couldn't go snorkeling. Luckily for us, they also do have a very nice...

Ready to head back to San José in order to go to the Caribbean side, which we had been looking very much forward to. Although, reading on Social Media for the last couple of days, that a huge storm from USA/Canada coming to the Caribbean countries, kinda put a lit on...

Following two awesome days with diving (read more about them in our previous two posts!), we spent the following days relaxing, walking and exploring some more of the local area.  Prior to leaving Denmark, we were inspired to get ourselves a drone, a DJI Neo 2....

Second day of diving. We were going to this divesite called El Bajo del Diablo. Supposedly where you'll have the best chances of spotting manta rays, as it's out on the deeper part of the ocean. We had been told, that there would be a lot of current at the surface and...

The sole purpose of going to Drake Bay for us was to go scuba diving at Caño Island to see sharks, turtles, rays and especially a huge wish to see a manta ray!  We had booked with Drake Divers. We were ready at the beach, super excited and super nervous as it had...

Holy crap it is different from Puerto Jimenez. Immediately we missed Puerto Jimenez and the more Costa Rican and local vibe. Drake Bay is very touristy and everything is written in English - we were not impressed.  Bumpy mini bus ride from Jimenez took about 2,5...

Ohh boy.. Puerto Jiménez, we are in love with you, the people, and the beautiful nature & wildlife all around us. We never in a million years imagined, that we would find such a lovely place here in Costa Rica. Even a place we (unplanned) wanted to spent about 3...

Waking up at 5 AM to the sound of howler monkeys, and going to bed around 6 PM just to talk for an hour or two around before falling asleep, quickly became our new routine at Bolita. It was okay and something we could easily adjust to, although it resulted in many...

For the first time while here, rain were pouring down early in the morning and didn't stop (every day had had occasional shorter showers). We had of course hoped for sunny weather and blue sky. Even so we took our now usual morning walk down to the water at 6:30 AM....
