ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

DONATE:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON CHANGE IN DIALING PHONES IN COSTA RICA - Effective March 20, '08!!! (& where to get cheaper biz cards, etc.)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON BIG CHANGES IN DIALING PHONES withIN COSTA RICA


EFFECTIVE at midnight on MARCH 20,'08 EVERYONE gets to add a “2” in front of ALL Land Line Phone numbers and an “8” when calling ALL cell numbers (note that ALL cell phones within CR start with either a 3 or an 8 making this new step easy to figure out).


If you have business cards, brochures, websites, etc. - that means you get to change all that also!!
(note, just the other day I went to get new biz cars and the guy didn’t even tell me about it [ahhhh “customer service”!!] so I get to remake more cards at MY cost!!).


You’ll also HAVE to reprogram all the numbers in your speed dial on your home phone and cell.

There will be NO change in Costa Rican 800, 900 or 905 numbers.

For more info Call 115 or email marca2oal8@ice.go.cr
