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 And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise.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:

I welcome you to show YOUR appreciation for my efforts!

Casa Milagro Foundation 
is a nonprofit NGO inspiring communities in Costa Rica in the areas of cross-cultural understanding, peace, conservation, education, art and culture, and health and wellness.

Tropical Adventures
http://TropicalAdventures.com
promotes responsible tourism opportunities through voluntour experiences throughout the country in the areas of education, conservation and wildlife and community development. All proceeds go to benefit our country-wide community programs, including Vecinos del Mundo.

Vecinos del Mundo http://TropicalAdventures.com/project/hojancha-art-music-project
(which means “Neighbors of the World”), was created to bring together cultures and people in the community Hojancha, Costa Rica in a collaborative effort to increase understanding between cultures, with an emphasis on community development, education, culture and conservation.

Our Environmental Policy Advocacy Program was created to help strengthen the conservation laws in Costa Rica to further protect our rich and biodiverse land, as well as to better protect our wildlife.
