Here in Costa Rica, Some Things Just Make Sense--

Here in Costa Rica, there are some things that just make sense.

Such as:

1. Sharing your kitchen with a motorcycle.


2. And four truck tires.


3. Keeping a wadded up grocery bag in your shower drain. (Why? To keep the crabs out, of course!)


4. Dogs wearing NASCAR collars.

Just because you moved to Central America, doesn't mean Jeff Gordon doesn't need your support.

5. Fanny packs. (Aka Belly sacks.)


This is one of the most useful inventions you can have down here. When riding yourbike 5 km (3.107mi) to the nearest grocery store, the last thing you need is a purse dangling from your shoulder and dripping with sweat.

So just strap one of these babies on, put your ipod in the big pocket, and take off!

(And if you still think fanny packs are lame-- you're a snob. Meanwhile, I am awesome. See photo above for proof.)

In all, living in Costa Rica is a tranquil and lovely experience. Here is a picture of my house which is a 5 minute walk from the beach.



Pura vida!
