Costa Rica

Pura Vida in Practice: A Costa Rican Call to Nature and Nurture

In Costa Rica, nature is not just scenery—it’s sanctuary. This small but mighty Central American country offers lush rainforests, active volcanoes, biodiverse coastlines, and a national spirit that radiates peace and well-being. With a focus on sustainability, wellness, and meaningful connection, Costa Rica invites travelers to reset, reconnect, and reimagine what travel can be.

Why visit Costa Rica?

Costa Rica excites with volcano treks, wildlife safaris in Manuel Antonio, and surfing in Tamarindo. But along the Caribbean coast in Limón, travelers encounter a different rhythm — one of reggae, creole cooking, and African-Caribbean pride. Descendants of Jamaican laborers and Garifuna people in towns like Cahuita and Puerto Viejo preserve vibrant music, dance, and storytelling, giving diaspora travelers a cultural home nestled in tropical paradise.

Arenal Volcano & La Fortuna

Towering over the lush northern plains, Arenal Volcano is a beacon of Costa Rica’s volcanic spirit. Explore the surrounding La Fortuna area with its hot springs, cascading waterfalls, and nature trails alive with monkeys, toucans, and sloths. Whether you’re zip-lining through forest canopies, soaking in thermal pools, or enjoying a locally prepared meal on a family farm, Arenal is where adventure and tranquility find perfect balance.

Monteverde Cloud Forest

Step into a mystical world where clouds kiss the treetops and every leaf seems to hum with life.
