8 Reasons Why Americans LEAVE Costa Rica [Why I Left]

The TRUTH about living in Costa Rica: Why do so many Americans leave Costa Rica after moving there? In this video, I explain what causes expats to change their minds about retiring abroad and why I left Costa Rica after 8 years. Some of the initial reasons that people want to move to Costa Rica include the moderate climate, laid back lifestyle, fresh and healthy food, friendly people, beaches, medical tourism, and the low cost of living. But is Costa Rica really a safe and friendly country or is it actually dangerous and expensive? Once they arrive, many people realize that living in Costa Rica wasn't quite what they expected. Unfortunately, that results in people returning home quite soon after arriving.

After helping more than 500 foreigners move to Costa Rica and living there for eight years, this video explains the top reasons why people move back to the USA and why I left, too, so that you know more about what to expect BEFORE you get there. This is the real and sometimes dark truth about living in Costa Rica. What do you think are the biggest pros and cons of living in Costa Rica? Let us know in the comments.

48 Hours in Jacó, Costa Rica | Hidden Gems Locals Know and You Don't!

If you're visiting Jacó, Costa Rica, be sure to check out this travel guide. Jacó is a small, party, beach town on the southern, Pacific coast of Costa Rica. BUT, there are plenty of family friendly activities and hidden gems only the locals know of (and now you after you watch this video) that are off the typical tourist path.

We want to give a special thanks to Sony for sponsoring this video. Throughout the video, we share why we love our ECM-B10 microphone, which is a key ingredient for good storytelling when it comes to making our YouTube videos. You can purchase your own ECM-B10 by click this link:

Here are our favourite features of the ECM-B10:

• 3-directional pickup patterns: super-directional (great for selfie style filming), unidirectional (perfect for multi-person interviews) and omnidirectional (records from all directions).

• In-body digital conversion which helps to reduce noise inside the camera.

• It's Cable-free (just plugs right into the hot shoe)!

• Highly efficient noise cut filter to reduce ambient noises such as wind, rain, or annoying background sounds.

Top 5 Costa Rica Food, Costa Rica Cuisine You Must Try It Once. #72 @taroballworld #Shorts

Costa Rican cuisine is known for its simplicity, freshness, and emphasis on natural flavors. The country's cuisine draws inspiration from its abundant tropical fruits, vegetables, seafood, and meats. Costa Rican dishes often showcase a combination of indigenous, Spanish, and Afro-Caribbean influences. Here are some iconic dishes that represent the flavors of Costa Rica's local cuisine:

1. Gallo Pinto: Considered the national dish of Costa Rica, Gallo Pinto is a hearty breakfast dish made with rice and black beans. The rice and beans are sautéed with onions, bell peppers, garlic, and spices like cilantro and Salsa Lizano, a popular Costa Rican condiment. Gallo Pinto is often served with eggs, cheese, tortillas, and a side of fried plantains.

2. Casado: A typical lunchtime meal in Costa Rica, Casado means married in Spanish, referring to the marriage of different components on one plate. It typically consists of white rice, black beans, a protein (such as grilled chicken, beef, or fish), salad, fried plantains, and sometimes a small portion of picadillo (vegetables sautéed with ground meat). Casado provides a well-balanced and satisfying meal.

3. Arroz con Pollo: A flavorful chicken and rice dish, arroz con pollo is prepared with seasoned chicken, rice, vegetables (such as peas, carrots, and bell peppers), onions, garlic, and spices. The ingredients are cooked together to create a delicious one-pot meal. Arroz con Pollo is a comforting and popular dish enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.

4. Olla de Carne: Olla de Carne is a traditional Costa Rican beef soup made with various cuts of beef, vegetables (such as potatoes, carrots, chayote, and plantains), corn on the cob, and spices. The ingredients are simmered together to create a rich and flavorful broth. Olla de Carne is often enjoyed as a hearty meal, especially during cooler months.

5. Ceviche: A refreshing seafood dish popular in coastal areas, ceviche features raw fish or shrimp marinated in lime or lemon juice, mixed with diced onions, bell peppers, cilantro, and sometimes diced tomatoes. The citric acid in the juice cooks the seafood, resulting in a tangy and flavorful dish. Ceviche is often served with tortilla chips or saltine crackers.

6. Sopa Negra: Translating to black soup, Sopa Negra is a black bean soup seasoned with garlic, onions, cilantro, and sometimes Salsa Lizano. It is typically served with a boiled egg, white rice, and a drizzle of Lizano sauce. Sopa Negra is a comforting and filling soup enjoyed throughout Costa Rica.

7. Tres Leches Cake: A popular dessert in Costa Rica (and many other Latin American countries), Tres Leches Cake is a sponge cake soaked in three types of milk: evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream. The cake is moist, sweet, and often topped with whipped cream and fruit. It is a decadent treat enjoyed on special occasions.

These dishes provide a glimpse into the delicious and varied cuisine of Costa Rica. Costa Rican cuisine also offers other specialties such as plantains prepared in various ways (fried, mashed, or baked), picadillos (vegetable sautés), arroz con leche (rice pudding), and a variety of tropical fruit juices and smoothies. Exploring the local cuisine of Costa Rica will introduce you to a delightful range of flavors and the country's rich culinary traditions.
