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 And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise.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

DIRECTIONS:  
Coming from the Pista - get off at the most Easterly Escazu exit (at HiperMas).  Go straight up that street - up the hill till it curves Right (because a one-way street blocks it).  At the 1st street you can turn Left (the 2nd street - at one of my FAV Tico restaurants - Casona de Laly).  Go straight up, passing the iglesia/church after the lift, Camacho's Ferriteria - following the cars to what looks like the first larger Left turn area (no signs of course) & follow it around to an open soccer field across from the iglesia/church (on the other side of that wall is one of the MOST MAGNIFICENT pieces of art to me - it's a ONE BLOCK LONG cement carving tribute to the Boyero's/farmers and oxcarts!!!).  There's also a stupendous view of the Central Valley from here!!


HOSTED by Tico's Proudly Folkloric Association
