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 And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise.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!
ANY size DONATION is APPRECIATED!
(see below other ways to show your appreciation)
The easiest way is with PAYPAL - Attn: LivingLifeInCostaRica@gmail.com
(you do NOT need to have a PayPal account to do this - just a credit or debit card)
ADD INFORMATION:

CLOWN / ANIMAL BALLOONS in Costa Rica - Mangongo the Clown







Need a GREAT CLOWN or someone to do ANIMAL BALLOONS for a party???

Check out 
Reñan Camarena - aka 
Mangongo the Clown"
(8-374-5091 / 2-289-4611 
mangongo17@gmail.com / pelaito17@hotmail.com)

I hear he's a GREAT Clown that does FUN balloons and he even works with kids in the hospital!!!   Plus he is a REAL SWEETIE with GREAT energy!!!!

Unfortunately he doesn't speak English (but he understands some [though most likely, this could be a fortunate thing as it could mean he doesn’t charge Gringo prices!!]).

(I know him because he’s the BEST Phlebotomist/blood sucker [at Laboratorio Clincio San Miguel in Centro Escazu] I have EVER EXPERIENCED ANYWHERE!!!  When he first did my tough vains - he gave me a poodle balloon afterwords because I was such a good girl and didn’t even flinch [because I didn’t even feel the needle go in and he got a gusher the first try!!!  AMAZING!!]!!)

Tell him Vicki referred ya (maybe next time I got for a blood test I'll get another balloon aminal!!)

(Did you use him or ANY OTHER service on this board?  PLEASE email us comments about the services at  Feedback@CostaRicaResourceGuide.com  THANX!!!)


ENJOY!!!!

Distribuidora QUIFLO Comercia in Costa Rica


Distribuidora QUIFLO Comercial 

Quiflo is a distributor for many pharmacies and Macrobiotics around Costa Rica, but you (the general public) can get into their office!

Here you can find MANY products that are hard to find in Costa Rica (or are only in small quantities) in various sizes from 30ml, 60ml, 120ml, liter and gallon!!    

Quiflo is the MAIN places I've found 35% (and lower) PEROXIDE (20-35% volume [on July 17, 2013 it was 8,700-colones/around $17 for a GALLON!!!])

They have everything from BORAX, Rubbing Alcohol, Chloroform, Citronella, Benzyl Benzoate / Iodine (2, 5%), vaseline (120ml-gallon), Valerian Root (liquid).  Vitamins and LOTS MORE!!! 

They even carry various oils - including MASSAGE OILS like Almond Oil, Mineral Oil, Castor Oil, Avocado Oil, Bergamot Oil, Camibar Oil+. 


Check out their PRODUCTS online (in Español) at:
Quiflosa.com/catquiflo/index.php?option=com_phocagallery&view=categories&Itemid=2


PICTURES FROM QUIFLO AND SOME OF THEIR PRODUCTS:
SarongGoddess.com/Other/Quiflo


HOURS:
Mon.-Fri. 8am-5:30pm
(they are closed for lunch from 12pm/noon-1:30pm)


DIRECTIONS:
ESCAZU (Centro)
•    Coming from the Pista - get off at the WalMart exit.
•    Get in the middle lane and pass through the light at Walmart.  Go through the 2nd light at TGIFridays.
•    Go through the light at KFC•McDonalds and make sure you're at this point in the LEFT lane.
•    At the Scotia Split light (IN the LEFT LANE) - go STRAIGHT UP UP the hill (passing AutoMercado•Plaza Atlantis) a few blocks.
•    At the next light where you MUST VEER RIGHT (if you were to go straight - you'll see a sign that says "no Hay Paseo" & run into a one-way street going the wrong way!!  There is a new Fresh Market and little strip mall on your left).
•    On your right you'll pass the Pub (green bar with a big sign that I THINK says Guiness or some other beer.  It's my FAV place for Fish & Chips on Fridays and Saturdays and their Argentinian specials on Sundays).
•    Turn LEFT/South at the 2nd street (it's a one-way street going South-bound.  On the North/West corner there is a one story terra cotta building - home to Casona de Laly - one of my FAV Tico restaurants [& BEST Margarita's I've found in CR so far]).
(NOTE•WARNING - MOST of the streets up in Centro Escazu are one-way streets and MANY do NOT have official markings)
•    Go up I think 4 blocks - passing Pollo Male (home to REALLY tasty coffee twig Roasted Chicken.  Tell owner Marco Vicki Connected you if you stop in), the light at Musmani's Panaderia/Bakery & the BACK of the church•iglesia) - heading South•UP the hill towards San Antonio de Escazu
•    2 blocks•200 meters after the church, on your LEFT (the South•East corner) you'll see a terra cotta 2 story building and on it it says "Corporacion Quiflo - Farmacia la Merced".  Note that this is a one-way street going the opposite way from where you can turn so if you want to park, if there's nothing out front of the pharmacy that's there, go up one more block & around the block.
•    The entrance to QUIFLO (vs the pharmacy below) is on the side/East/left side of the building - UPSTAIRS (press the bell and they'll buzz you in).
