  • Teatro Nacional is a magnificent neoclassical building that sticks out like a pure bred among mutts in the middle of Central San José. I recommend a visit to anyone who has a day in San José, especially  anyone who lives in Costa Rica. After spending all my days on the beach, in the jungle, or in a typical concrete wall and tin roof building, the Teatro Nacional made me feel like Cinderella!

  • The past week was Semana Santa, the most celebrated holiday here in Costa Rica. The Costa Ricans celebrate it by spending time with their families at the water. All of the usually uninhabited beaches and rivers were covered with tents, vehicles, and people. If there was water, there were Ticos. We celebrated by going to Puerto Viejo.
