Pura Vida!

"Pura Vida" is something you hear everywhere you go in Costa Rica. What does it mean? It means so much more than the literal translation of "Pure Life",

Pura Vida is a cultural attitude and a mindset in Costa Rica. It's the laid-back lifestyle, and the respect and reverence the people have for the beautiful environment surrounding you, everywhere you find yourself in this amazing country. It's the welcoming kindness of the Tico people - the native Costa Ricans. It's the country-wide focus on sustainability, and living a lifestyle that doesn't negatively impact the environment.

“With its rich biodiversity, Costa Rica has also demonstrated far-sighted environmental leadership by pursuing reforestation, designating a third of the country protected natural reserves, and deriving almost all of its electricity from clean hydro power.” – Stiglitz

Experience Pura Vida and allow yourself to slow down, and realize that the world is our garden. Enjoy and Take Care. Pura Vida!
