San José, Costa Rica

"Don't be afraid to ask questions about what you don't know, it's the only way you will learn. Don't be afraid to try new things, as you will surely leave Costa Rica a new person than when you came. Take initiative. Go. See. Experience. But do it with friends, and be prepared for the ride! "
