The Costa Rica Lifestyle Basics

Hello hello readers! Today I would like to share a few of my favorite things about the Jaco Beach Costa Rica Lifestyle.  If you are planning to move to Playa Jaco or the surrounding towns in Garabito you will also quickly be sucked into the Pura Vida Lifestyle.

Jaco Beach Costa Rica Lifestyle

Outdoor Activities:

There are so many activities to do! My favorite is hiking-    Some of the best spots are Miro´s Mountain, the mountain near Los Sueños Canopy Tour, The mountain by Las Nubes community in Herradura and the one by Maxipali Supermarket. I also enjoy jogging at Los Sueños resort or at the beach Jaco, Hermosa, Herradura and even Punta Leona are great I will recommend early morning or late afternoon. Mother nature always amaze me.  You can also try  Zumba, Yoga, Mountain Bike, Surf and more!

Food:

Here are my favorite food moments. Typical breakfast at ¨El turno¨ , lunch at Chinita Pacifica, Taco Tuesday at Green Room, All the sandwiches options at side street. Las pitaz (shawarma pita is the best) Jaco Rustico is always great! Tuna poki at Vista Hermosa is deli, Shrimp rice and seafood soup at Isaga. Chifrijo at Marea Alta and lately the coffee shop at Croc´s.  Tip: Like their FB pages so you can be aware of their special promos.

Breathe and enjoy the little things

Relax my friend! Get used to the “Tico” Jaco Costa Rica lifestyle …. Slow down , breathe and REPEAT! Meet new people, go out more often and let´s be grateful.

Have a pet  (Only for animal lovers)

What Can I say… Life is easier when you have one! Adopt a pet trough Mckee a non profit organizationion here in Jaco. And if you are not allow to have a pet where you live you can help in other ways.

Volunteer:

There are lots of organizations where you can volunteer here in Jaco. I particularly volunteer at Seeds of Hope where I teach Customer service and Tourism. There are always opportunities to volunteers form English classes to Construction the need is there for those ready to plug in.  I have found that you must give back a little if you what to truely experience the best that a Jaco Beach Costa Rica Lifestyle has to offer.

Let me know if you want to hike one day!
