A travel blog entry by andresturner

This being my 3rd trip to Costa Rica, and having flown in and out of San Jose each time, we figured we'd stay for a night and see what it was all about. Also, we were coming from Quepos/Manuel Antonio, and heading to Puerto Viejo, which in 1 day is exhausting...

I'm sure there's plenty to do here, but it wasn't in our best interest to find …

Greetings from San Jose, Costa Rica, where pura vida reigns, and it also rains and rains and rains. It´s "winter" here and thus there is a monsoon every afternoon. It has started early today.. perhaps Mother Nature wants to get her work done early on Sunday. I spent a really lovely week making new friends and being hosted by some wonderful folks. …

    We read several reviews for San Jose hostels before coming, and this place seemed cool. It was fine for one night, but a very funky place. It wasn't that clean, and the bunk beds were tiny. Also, the lockers (to safeguard your stuff), all looked as if someone had pried them open with a crow bar one time or another. The people there were nice, but all in all I'd say the place was kind of a wreck.
