4, 6 Street, 8 Avenue Heredia, Province of Heredia, Costa Rica, 1530-3000
... research and crossing our fingers has been rewarded and we are ready to begin construction of the market. Our fantastic new intern, Rebecca Uncles, has been named Project Manager, and will be living in Bambu for 6 months to oversee the project.
Paraiso, Costa Rica tropicalcr... classes within the day. This caused the day to feel even more productive. The other part of the day I got to meet some very nice people, and talk in English. I had to introduce myself in front of the group inside the Church. I got to meet two people from St. Joseph (small world), and I got to meet Dee and George, a couple that has been living outside of SJ for over 10 years and teaches English 2 days a week at a local school. They ...
La Estrella del Guarco, Costa Rica mmm.cafecitos... have eaten lunch before we'd arrived). They didn't ask me what I wanted on it. Being a plain cheese pizza lover my whole life (with the occasional toppings) it was definitely the most I'd ever eaten on a pizza. It had pepperoni, mushrooms, sausage and green peppers. It wasn't too bad (I ate 3 slices because I was very hungry), but I probably wouldn't eat it again, lol. I spent the next few hours unpacking. I have my own room and my ...
Heredia, Province of Heredia, Costa Rica angelalivengood... my hand. It was beautiful but I could not get my camera to focus on it unfortunately. After the tour Jessie and I hiked off the main path to another beach while the others went to the main beach. The main beach was very crowded I guess, But the beach we went to was totally private surrounded by forest. It was awesome we had our own secluded beach to swim in the ocean for awhile. After getting back from the hike I took a little nap and then ...
Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica djsanscrainte... why the beach is littered with white remains of broken turtle eggs. This is a result of the thousands of Olive Ridley turtles that come to nest here in Playa Ostional. In one single arribada, the turtles will leave up to 10 million eggs on the volcanic beach of Ostional. Interstingly, Ostional is the only beach in the world were egg poaching is legal. Scientist found that most eggs that are deposited in the first two nights of the arribada are inadvertently dug ...
Ostional, Costa Rica smylazar... pieces of candy, little art projects they made, and coins in fascinatingly small denominations--while the U.S. mint keeps batting around the idea of discontinuing the penny, Costa Rica still makes a 25-centimo piece (roughly one-twentieth of a cent USD.) It makes me sad that I don't know their names, and in fact can't even recognize almost half of them. I thought Stephanie would take the lead in involving me in her classroom, but she's left my involvement up to me. I'm ...
Puriscal, Costa Rica espriseme... people if you take the time to get to know them. Right now, it is a little after midnight. There is no sense in going to bed. I have to get up in a couple of hours to shower and finish packing so I guess I'll just take a siesta and kill time until it is time to go. I hope the flight is on time and customs goes well. Next stop - Wichita, Kansas Over and Out
Heredia, Costa Rica wanderingwacko... are reading this, my first student assigned to me is Carolina Carvajal! ¿Una pariente, tal vez? The staff person assigned to student relations gave us a walking tour of the downtown area and led us to a cafe for lunch after classes were over. Forget the tour, every time you cross the street, you are taking your life into your hands. The taxi drivers are NASCAR wannabees. Stop signs are there only to offer a little more color ...
Heredia, Costa Rica wanderingwacko... for him to the states as a personal favor but I have to carry it inside my pants. I don't know if I should, they're tight enough already. Roberto was waiting on me outside the airport as the school said he would be. He is a very nice older man and he helped me carry my bags to his van and we made our way to his home. And a very nice home it is. I have my own bedroom, single bed, private bath ...
