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 And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise.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:
Has my blog helped in any way? Helped find something•brought more EASE? More exposure or business?
I welcome you to show YOUR appreciation for my efforts!

NOTE on MY experience with Transportation. 
If you need a ride or are offering a ride or want someone to go on the bus with, please post it in "Comments" below as well as let the leaders know.  When I went, I did the bus with a new friend and we got there early enough to do the FABULOUS San Isidro de General Feria•Farmer's Market and then we met up in front of a hotel down there where we had a shuttle.  I'm checking on if they're doing that again or have some other options and I'll post it here.

There are no beds left for the gathering.

Please no alcohol or drugs on premises
