Asociación Salvemos las Tortugas de Parismina
... your host family. We were given three meals a day of typical Costa Rican food which consists mainly of rice n beans, curried stews and fried food including plantains. We bought our own fruit from the local store when it was available. Kimberly was a great cook but we have definitely had our fill of rice n beans for a while!
We came to Parismina to work with Asociación Salvemos las Tortugas de Parismina (ASTOP). I have always wanted to work on ...
Week 12 - Goodbye to Jalova (& GREEN TURTLE)
