You could be an investor, a retiree or just as a company employee, Costa Rica always offers something attractive for you. It is true that Costa Rica is a country in the developing stage. However, Costa Rica offers and provides the necessary facilities you have or need with a twist you can get used to. Life here, somehow goes slower than in other countries thou not too slow. There is a mixture of relaxation and business, modern but easy way of living that characterizes Costa Rican people. So our advice is to leave all the stress and rush before coming here if you want to really enjoy this tropical country and its customs.

This is a country that embraces foreigners and invites them to come and join our way of living but wants it to be respected. Costa Ricans are friendly, outgoing by nature and love to share what they have with others.

Although we know the importance of progress, we just do not rush it or stress on it. This might get a foreigner stressed at the beginning but with time he ends up getting used to it. That’s why we have our expression “Pura Vida” (Pure Life) that implies “Why worry”, “I am ok as I am”, “l am having fun”,” l’ll be ok” , “l’ll do that tomorrow”.
