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 And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise.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

PLEASE GIVE BACK to the People of Costa Rica (geared towards tourists coming & non-Nationals that are blessed to get to live here!!)

 PLEASE GIVE BACK TO THE PEOPLE OF COSTA RICA!!!

We are SOOOO BLESSED to get to live in or even Visit as a Tourist to Costa Rica and I feel we ALL have an OBLIGATION to GIVE BACK in whatEVER way we can - via our time, donations (things or cash), service - whatEVER!! 

EXPATS LIVING IN COSTA RICA:
There are SOOO MANY Expats with too much time on their hands - make yourself useful and SHOW your appreciation!!!  EVERYONE has SOMETHING they can share - be it a hobby, a skill - heck - even just a hug!!!  Are you all anal-retentive about the English language??  Use that uptightness in a PRODUCTIVE way by helping kids or adults - or your neighbors learn English and do it for FREE!!!!

TOURISTS:
You know you have PLENTY of EVERYTHING!!  How about cleaning out your closets and cupboards and bring things down that you're no longer needing/using!!  For a list on suggestions go to http://GraciasCostaRica.com



VICKI'S RANT:
I just can NOT get certain message boards/forums or associations geared towards the Expat community that do not allow posts/make announcements to ENCOURAGE the expats to help the people of this country who have allowed them to live here.
