Why Costa Rica?

There are plenty of fun fans about Costa Rica, numbers and statistics that will give your mind great reasons to come and to enjoy this magnificent country. And we will give you those, sure! But later… First we will start by giving you one single example that summarizes it all (And that will definitely get to your heart!). You know in many countries there are cultural slogans. Words or phrases like Aloha, Hakuna Matata, Maktub, Namaste and others. These define the lifestyle of the people that live there and use them, and can tell you a lot about the cultural differences from one region of the World to the next. Well! In Costa Rica, the phrase is “Pura Vida”, which means, literally “Pure Life”.

You see “Pura Vida” in t-shirts, mugs and in all sorts of souvenirs, but it is not, whatsoever a commercial thing. All costarricans use it permanently, and it truly, when you know the meaning, it can make your heart dance and your face smile. Pura Vida is used to say Hi, is used to say bye, is used to say I am fine, and it is used to say that a certain thing (A trip or a test) went well.

It is a permanent reminder of the abundant life in this fantastic country!

Pura Vida (Pure Life) is such an appropriate saying for such a diverse and lively country.

You see… it happens that Life itself is a mystery. It is impossible to define it. It is this Force that moves all of what’s in Earth. It is intense and unlimited. It is a realm where emotions go over certainties, life will goes over rules.

“Pure Life” gets us out to freedom, to unpredictability, we cease to judge and we are free to play. “Pure Life” brings within the rebel and the tender, the wise and the funky, the bright and the secret, the peace and the adventure…

Pure Life is over all a realm where we live in our purest and most free state of mind.

And that, exactly, is Costa Rica.

That alone, is the main and best reason to come and live the amazing wander of this little place and the pure life that awakens in you.

Now… after explaining this, and if you still need them, we can give you some fun facts about it:

• 5% of the world’s biodiversity is contained in this country which is slightly smaller than West Virginia and slightly bigger than Denmark.

• 112 Volcanoes (6 are active)

• 12 Life Systems, 56 Microclimates

• Considered to be the third greenest country in the World.www.ecowatch.com/2014/10/21/top-greenest-countries-in-world
