My favorite part was horseback riding. I LOVED my horse.
I got to hold a baby sloth. — Abbie S., (12 yr.), New Canaan, CT, March, 2007
In summary, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Costa Rica and a major cause was Serendipity- your knowledge, your logistics, your equipment and above all, your people. A happy "go lucky" team who were a delight to deal with.
We will be back with more family and friends and look forward to seing you there.

What I loved most was sharing everything with my family. (Serendipity guide) Andrés could not have been a more perfect match for our family. He was extremely responsive and courteous and truly took care of all of our needs without us feeling "guilty". He is bright and articulate and seemed to enjoy our company for 12 days; a very special young man and a true professional. — David O, Darien, CT, March, 2007
Serendipity provides excellent quality, organization, management, staffing- (principal guide) Juan Carlos, river guides, stable staff (Michael, Esteban) and Tucker- all top quality staff, very personal service. Excellent safety, attention to detail.
.... Also, I really liked not having to carry money and the guide paid for everything so we didn't have to worry about any bills or tips. — -- Victoria C, Los Altos, CA, April, 2006
Well we've returned to civilization - but did so kicking and screaming. My wife, Heidi, and I wanted to write to once again express our thanks for one of the most awesome (individual and shared) traveling experiences. It contributed to a perfect honeymoon. While the beautiful Costa Rican countryside provided you with much to work with, we recognize that our outstanding experience was due in large part to the well-organized planning and obvious infrastructure of your company. More than that however, we believe that you - and consequently, we - benefitted from your well-trained/qualified employees. Without exception, they were fantastic, knowledgeable, competent, patient and respectful of the "clients" and their surroundings. In sum, as confirmed anti-group/tour travelers, both Heidi and I were very surprised and impressed with Serendipity's ability to organize and manage an "adventure" outing for a group as diverse (age, athletic ability, trip objectives) as ours that allowed each participant to enjoy the experience without impinging on the others' experiences. — Alex & Hidi G., San Francisco, CA, January, 2003
(Our son) Alan says he wants to be a Serendipity guide when he grows up. Honestly, I think that is a very noble career goal for him to strive for. — Andrew B., Gregory, MI, February, 2005
The Pacuare River: Very very fun! The food was delicious and the accomodations were wonderful. All the Serendipity guides were fun and friendly, and more than willing to show us ways to have fun in the river. This was an incredible experience!
Climing the Strangler tree: What a workout! This was so much fun. Jose and Beto gave good support and were so easy to trust. This was much different that what I expected, but really great!
Overall, we had a wonderful experience! (Lead guide) Jose went out of his way to make our trip the best possible. Thanks for such a great time! — Angela W., (17 yr. Old), Hawthorne, WI, January, 2007
Even in spite of the weather, we saw and really understood more about nature than we'd ever imagined. The beauty of (Serendipity leader) Juan Carlos as our guide was the extreme pleasure in the little things -- the frogs and the butterflies, even the exotic mushrooms and wild cocoa. Of course we enjoyed the monkeys and crocodiles! .....the special exploration of nature with Juan Carlos made it all seem spread out exclusively for us..... we were a real Robinson Crusoe family for 10 days. — Barbara H., Cleveland, OH, March, 2006
Our Serendipity trip was wonderful for our family. We've had 9 days together before Ben goes to college. The adventures we'vehad, people we have met and the memories which were made will stay with us always. The level of professionalism from Matias as all of the support staff was outstanding. We put Macha ( our 4 x 4's name) to the test everywhere we went. The rafting lunch was a feast-- thank you Yami! — Betsy W., Grey, TN, July, 2006
Just promise us (Serendipity guide) Alex never loses his delightful sense of discovery that made all of us feel like we're joining him, like Christopher Columbus, in the discovery of the New World. — Bob H., hockey coach (with team of 16 kids), July, 2003
What made our experience "beyond any knew the guides would get us to our adventures and hoped they would teach us/ support us during the adventures. They did this with amazing competence and thoroughness. Our trip was enriched by their personal qualities, experiences, knowledge and passionate connections to Costa Rica-- that each guide shared with us. The personal connections, knowledge and insight I gained on this trip are life changing. — Cynthia G., Durham, NC, December, 2005
(Serendipity guide) Jose is a first class guide and person. He fit in with our family immediately. He brought a tremendous passion and energy to nature walks, hikes, and climbing. He was very warm with our children. Jose also quietly but very effectively watched out for our safety. The trip went off without a hitch. I want to stress: Jose was the perfect trip leader in every respect. — David N., Chestnut Hill, MA, April, 2007
As far as the activities, just when we thought it couldn't get better, it did!! Our love of adventure, and our awareness of Costa Rica, will never be the same. Thanks, Serendipity! — David O., Darien, CT, March, 2007
Our Serendipity vacation was a trip of a lifetime! We are already talking about looking forward to a return trip to Costa Rica, without question including Serendipity. I would highly recommend this type of trip again for anyone coming to Costa Rica. — David P., Jackson, MI, December, 2006
This Serendipity trip is the best trip I've ever taken! THANK YOU!
Riding was fun and I came on this trip with a huge fear of horses. Shayna really helped me felt comfortable and I have started to get over my fear. — Della B., Bethesda, MD, March, 2006
Much to my husbands dismay, I am sure, it was the best vacation of my life( other than our honeymoon). Love the way Shayna cared for us & took such pride in our enjoyment & happiness. We will never forget this trip.
Shayna did everything to make us have the best vacation of our lives. Della never would have gone horseback riding without her encouragement, I never would have done the canopy without her giving me an easy alternative. She thinks on her feet and makes your experience wonderful. We cannot wait to come back with (my husband) David and spend time with Shayna as our guide. We love you Shayna! She picked great additional adventures for all of us. A bit out of our normal comfort zone, but lots of fun. It was the best trip I've ever been on. Jake Bradt. It's the best trip i've ever taken! THANK YOU! Riding was fun and i came on this trip with a huge fear of horses. Shayna really helped me felt comfortable and i have started to get over my fear. Della Bradt — Diane B., Bethesda, MY, March, 2006
We have just finished a fantastic week with Serendipity. Since we have three active teenage boys we wanted something other than a hum-drum vacation. We got a super week together with Serendipity, I had three concerns about the trip.
? Was Serendipity a respectable company? I found it to be of the highest quality - with excellent support personnel, top quality equipment, and unquestionable quality.
? Would we be safe? Our guide Juan Carlos (JC) made the entire trip an adventure. He was our interpreter, navigator, encourager, an expert historian, biologist and botanist. He made sure we were safe at all times. You could tell that he was intent on giving us every opportunity without exposing us to any undue risk. At every activity, Serendipity provided wonderful support guides to make sure we were safe.
? Would we be comfortable? We had great hotels and wonderful meals. Even though we were off the beaten path and seeing parts of Costa Rica that most tourists never see, we always had comfortable rooms and excellent food.
We hiked the rainforest, visited a volcano, floated a jungle river, climbed an enormous strangler fig, rode fantastic horses, soaked in the hot springs, zip-lined above the forest, rappelled a remote river canyon, and whitewater rafted a tumbling, roaring river. Every activity was thrilling and fantastic! The best part of our trip was the personal guide, Juan Carlos. He had an amazing knowledge of the plants, animals, the jungle, the rainforest, the river, the restaurants, the roads and the hotels. His quick smile and constant enthusiasm brightened every event. I developed absolute confidence in his skill and judgement - and would trust my family in his care without reservation in the future. He made our trip a smashing success. We have enjoyed many different family vacations -- but this was the best ever.
Thank you Serendipity!!! — Dr. John D., Prattville, AL, November, 2005
We didn't know what we were getting in for when we signed up for the Cabecar Trail. Somehow the workout gym just doesn't prepare you for the real thing. But we learned a lot more than machete handling and trail blazing and rafting and rope handling ..... we learned that we can do anything, if (Serendipity guide) Moises says we can handle it. — Edgar A., New York, NY (city bred folks on CABECAR Trail rugged trip), December, 2005
Serendipity guide Alfonso is outstanding - knowledgeable, patient, caring, humorous, organized, insightful! Can you tell I think he's great? What an asset to Serendipity. He made the trip so memorable. The local "helpers" (guides) were also excellent - Jaime, Beto, Eric & Gustavo, Raf and Fernando. They were all personable and helpful.
Alfonso was very willing to stop whenever we wanted to take a picture or check out monkeys in the trees. His eyes are sharp - he spotted a sloth for us.
The JURASSIC tour provided a nice variety of activities. Within the structure of the tour there was flexibility - spend more time here, do this hike instead of that. The all-inclusive aspect of the tour was a definite plus - laundry, snacks, soft drinks, bottled water, etc. The food was excellentat the hotel, and wherever Alfonso took us.
Keep up the good work and keep quality people (like Alfonso, and the others in your company). — Ellen G., Orinda, CA (JURASSIC group tour), April, 2007
(The Serendipity trip) was much more exciting than I expected. The guides were much, much nicer than I expected, and the tree climbing, kayaking was all more fun than I expected. I had a great time and everyone encouraged me. They also let me do things I would not have done before. — Ericka O., 10 yr. old, Darien, CT, March, 2007
Serendipity put together a terrific trip. Our group does an annual back pack or cause trip -every year for 25 years- and this was the first guided trip. (Serendipity guides) Matias and Bruce were excellent and fit in well. More safety conscious how we usually are , but this is a positive for Serendipity. Both are gems in every way. — Greg Fritz, Warren, RI, January, 2006
We've tried just about every sport, every adventure we could buy. Nothing comes close to the "edge" we felt while with you guys. Horses and trees, balloons and rafts, volcanoes, rivers, jungles and beaches all in 10 days. WOW — Hannah C., Bristol, England, July, 2006
Jackie has written a long and very poignant letter which is worh reading in its entirety. We encourge you to view it at Jackie Gero's comments — Jackie G, Miami, FL, November, 2005
(To Serendipity guides Filipe and Jonathan) -
We are deeply humbled by the skills you posess, which you generously shared with us, as well as your passion and enthusiasm. We are sincerely grateful for all your acts of kindness.
Thank you so much for creating such an outstanding experience for the both of us. I wish also to thank all the other extraordinary people who made this trip possible. — Jacques (father) and Olivier (son) S., San Anselmo, CA, January, 2007
I can't imagine a better trip! How can you keep a family with 70 year olds and 8 year olds all happy at the same time? Each adventure was perfect, and (Serendipity guide) Fernando made it even more perfect — Jamie J., Milburn, NJ, April, 2006
We just want to thank Serendipity for lending us our wonderful guide Andres, who showed us a trip to remember! We thoroughly enjoyed the beauty of your country, and have told everyone who will listen what a great company Serendipity is. When we were asked to fill out a form on what we enjoyed most and least, we had trouble as we loved everything we did, and were so thankful every time we saw one of the big tour buses that we weren't on one. We loved the individual one on one attention, the hotels were all great, and the food delicious. I did some things that nobody back home woud belive without the pictures to prove it, like Abraham and the canopy tour! We will definitely be back. — Jane and Tim M., Cochrane, Alberta, Canada, February, 2007
(Serendipity guides) Andrés & Catalina were extremely personable, thoughtful and tireless in their efforts. Their careful attention to every detail, and their anticipation of individual group members needs was absolutely excellent. Their commitment to and time spent with the group was far beyond any expectations. The genuine concern for each person's needs and security that they displayed made for an extremely comfortable and pleasurable vacation experience.
During the trip each guide quickly became more than a representative of Serendipity; they became genuine friends. — Jane B., Auburn, ME, June, 2005
The concept of expeditionary travel was new to us, but now we understand the advantage. With (Serendipity leader) Juan Carlos always with us, he knew more about our abilities and willingness to try than we did. He always pushed us (with the excitement of anticipation!) to try something new, and we always knew he would "rescue" us if needed.
The big difference was, we DID try, and we DID succeed, even in overcoming some lifelong fears (height, white water, and snakes!) — Jean M., Rockford, IL, December, 2006
We never went on a trip like this before. From the Serendipity private activities I learned I could do challenging things and got over some of the fears. Having Serendipity's experienced guide was wonderful. We learned so much more than we would have on our own.
As I'm sure you know, (Serendipity principal guide) José's incredible wealth of knowledge about the natural habitat of Costa Rica, as well as the culture. We had a great time getting to know him and enjoyed his sense of humor and graciousness. We felt very safe and well taken care of. And of course he is a wonderful driver! — Jill G, Chestnut Hill, MA, April, 2007
We've hiked the Inca Trail, and we've traveled to the pyramids and the Great Wall of China. Without a doubt the week with Serendipity introduced us to more excitement and self-congratulatory stories than anything we've ever done before. This is a major accomplishment for our family, and a major credit to your company. — Joanne B., Seattle, WA, November, 2006
Nice job Serendipity! You obviously know what you are doing because you do it so well. Thank you!! We had a great time and got good value too. Everyone we dealt with at Serendipity was outstanding and helped make this a most memorable vacation". " All of my questions via e-mail or phone were quickly answered with great detail. Kirk was not only any excellent guide but become a trusted friend. He is extremely knowledgeable, capable, fun and a pleasure to be around, We were well taken care of in every aspect. I luckily stumbled across Serendipity on the internet. Excellent website. All aspects of this trip were outstanding- especially Kirk. This vacation was for beyond my expectations. Not only was Kirk fantastic but everyperson we dealt with from Serendipity-additional guides or just people working or helping out-were outstanding. Everyone was exceptional in their knowledge and capabilities. And beyond that, theysupported, encouraged, and helped me get through my moments of fear. Thank you to all!" Susan Fogarty — Joe F., Hainesport, NJ (INTREPID group departure), July, 2006
It was the perfect family vacation. There's nothing more uniting that taking on new challenges together, without tourists pushing or interfering with our own pace. We will never forget (Serendipity guide) Justin, the greatest guide in the world, and all the dedicated guides and office people at Serendipity who made our trip, well, the best we've ever experienced, in spite of miserable roads... — John A., Calgary, Canada, May, 2007
I was surprised how unbelievably hassle-free traveling with Serendipity turned out to be. There were no issues with waiting in lines, waiting for tables, tipping, etc. -- it was so relaxing.
The trip was way more than I expected due largely to (Serendipity guide) Roger relating well to my kids. His temperament was ideal for my two girls, who are inquisitive and eager learners. — John E., Palo Alto, CA, April, 2007
We were thrilled with our Serendipity trip - way beyond our expectations. Thank you for putting together such a wonderful package with so many great places, activities and people — Karen T, Princeton, NJ, April, 2004
Serendipity Adventures has provided our family a superb vacation encompassing excellent lodging, excellent food, and wonderful adventures at every location. We felt that each individual we met at every specific activity was not only professional but also very knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and extremely personable. We felt very safe at every activity.
We leave your beautiful country with a much better understanding of the people, their cultures, the wildlife and the natural beauty that abounds here.
We are truly much richer for having had this awesome adventure. Our sincerest thanks. — Ken B., Auburn, ME, June, 2005
Its been nearly two months since my daughter Mariah and I returned from Costa Rica. We spent merely 48 hours with Serendipity Adventures, but no trip we have ever taken was more exciting, intriguing, bonding and fun. We still talk about it almost daily, and, on the flight home, 11 year old Mariah wrote a 26 page power point of her amazing vacation.
See full letter from Kerry Kennedy Cuomo — Kerry Kennedy Cuomo, Mount Kisco, NY, May, 2006
The trip with Serendipity was just outstanding! Andres is a wonderful guide and doesn't make you uncomfortable. The hotels are very nice, too. I feel really priviledged to have been able to go on this trip and it has really led me to love Costa Rica! The food was also very good. I hope I can do this again but for a longer period of time. It was excellent! Pura Vida! — Kyra McC., age 12, Salt Lake City, UT, April, 2007
Our family has run out of adjectives and adverbs to describe our fabulous trip to Costa Rica! We will be sending in our surveys shortly but I wanted you all to know how much we loved our perfectly planned trip.
ALL of the guides at the various activities were the best but we'll always have a special place in our hearts for Felipe. He is SO energetic and enthusiastic -- what a great ambassador for Serendipity and Costa Rica. We can't wait to come back. On the way to the airport, we were talking with Felipe about all of the things we can do on our next trip! Thanks again for a once-in-a-lifetime vacation!!! — Linda, Frank, Ben & Kim P., Strongsville, OH, June, 2007
No I am NOT too old (68) to run wild rivers, ride beautiful horses, climb trees, shout down monkeys, explore caves. I just thought I was. (Serendipity guide) Catalina cajoled me into trying everything, and I owe her, and the people who planned my adventurous vacation, my new feeling of being alive. I also saw how generations interact here in Costa Rica, and even at my age life has so much still to offer. I am done with five-star resorts and predictable pleasures -- discovering myself, that's what I am going after from now on. — Lynne A., Pinckney, MI, May, 2007
What a honeymoon! We're considering changing our last name to Serendipity, and ask for a family discount when we come back on our fifth anniversary. Maybe we'll bring some friends, or a baby or two — Mark & Kjerstin B., Minneapolis, MN, February, 2007
This was a great trip with Serendipity. The activities were very challenging, but that made getting through them even more rewarding. I'm walking away from this trip feeling better about myself! — Mary B., Darien, CT, August, 2005
We really appreciated (Serendipity guide) Roger adding surprise side trips -- to a hidden waterfall, a night walk in the rain forest, and also found us a private and good place to watch Arenal erupting -- YEA! — Mary Louise E., Palo Alto, CA, April, 2007
I was most surprised at how safe I felt while doing challenging activities that held real risks.
I learned that with the proper balance of qualified guides, enough information and self-determination I can challenge myself to try more risky activities. Thanks, Serendipity. — Mary O., Darien, CT, March, 2007
I just want to thank Serendipity and tell you that we had a fantastic time on the trip. Each one of us had a different favorite activity and something that scared us to death so I would say that it was quite a successful vacation. What made the trip truly special for us though was our guide, Sergio, and the other guides we met along the way. When asked what his favorite activity was, my son replied that he liked many of the activities but what he liked most of all was meeting and talking with the guides. They are all special people.
Given what a great time we had and that we still have not seen the coasts or done many of the activities, we want to plan a trip for next year's vacation (Dec 15/16-23) and we definitely want to have Sergio as our guide again. The kids won't settle for anyone else and actually neither will Ron or I. Oh, and please check with Sergio and make sure he is available! (for our travel dates)! We would rather change our schedule than not have him as our guide.
(P.S. they did come back, Dec. 2006, and have planned Dec. 2007 already) — Melissa C., Richmond, VA, Dec. 2005 & Dec. 2006
Now I know the difference between a tourist and a traveler. We arrived, had an instant new friend, and we set off to see his country, with all the good and all the bad. We learned a lot about the Third World, and how making money comes at the cost of losing the pleasures of close families and a simpler life. (Serendipity guide) Alvarito brought us into his world, and we didn't want to leave. — Michael M., Fairfax, VA, November, 2006
I think we all feel that this Serendipity adventure was one of the very best (if not the best) vacations we've ever had!
Everything from the culture, geography, history of Costa Rica, to the flora and fauna, biology and ecology. Our Serendipity leader, Eduardo, immediately assessed our interests and was quick to find so many great things for us to do. He offered us bungee jumping-which was a huge hit with the 2 " boys", and we saw what it means to be on a trip that was customized and special. He encouraged all of us to try new things( like canyoning, rappelling, swimming in waterfall pools, etc) and never pushed us beyond our limits. In fact he was exquisitely tuned into everyone's special interests and capacities and made us feel great. His special gift is his openness and his sense of humor, yet still with a steady competent sense of responsibility. He made the trip just great for all of us( we wanted to take him home with us!)
4) The food was one of the high lights- because every region and restaurant had a specialty- and Eduardo could explain the dishes and use the food as another cultural experience.
If vacations are meant to get away from the "rat race" -this was a success-and if they are meant to create life long memories-it worked! Thanks! — Nancy S., Potomac, MD, August, 2006
I work in hospitality and have very high expectations. Serendipity thought of everything. Your staff is the very best in the world. I always felt safe, well-fed, well cared for. I can't imagine vacationing again without Sergio to guide us. He is the most knowledgeable man I have ever met in so many areas- culture, plants, animals, birds, first aid, food- any topic we threw at him he taught us about. What a find you have with him!
Everything from our 1st phone call to our last goodbye was top notch. I will send many, many people your direction. Keep doing what you are doing. Serendipity is first class! — Pam R., Santa Clara, CA, June, 2005
I may forget where I live, I may forget the names of my kids, but I will NEVER forget this week with Serendipity in Costa Rica — Paul M., Philadelphia, PA, October, 2006
It never crossed my mind that I was on a tour -- I was an explorer, and I discovered more about myself than anything else. I can do a lot more than my accountant's personality thought possible. Face big waves, ride horses in moonlight, swim in rivers with exotic reptiles. These I will not forget. Nor will I ever forget the huge support I received from )Serendipity guide) Juanca, who always pushed me to try but, as I look back, never put me at risk. — Paul Z., Littleton, CO, March, 2003
It as a great trip and difficult logistics for Serendipity to handle. There were so many possible ways things might get missed up ( timing, boats, etc). It is to Serendipity's credit that nothing did. (Comments about complicated trip with lots of equipment and people movement away from roads, where everything relied on Serendipity equipment, guides, and support in wilderness conditions) — Randy R., Rehoboth MA, January, 2006
Our Serendipity guide, Alfonso, was spectacular! His planning and daily guiding and assistance could not have been better, He was expert in his knowledge of all the activities. He acquainted us with interesting and essential information about Costa Rica's geography, plant life, and all the various animals. Without overloading us, he provided a great deal of background on the Costa Rican culture and history, as well as that of the surrounding countries. Finally, he paced our activities very skillfully, so that there was a nice variety of different activities but not so much that it tired us out at anytime. We genuinely appreciate the job he did - it could not have been better! Pura Vida!
I was very plesed with our trip! Everything was meticulously planned and executed. The hotels were pleasant and the food was uniformly excellent throughout. All subguides were helpful and informative. — Richard G., Orinda, CA, April, 2007
I learned on this trip that with just a little bit of support from Serendipity I can do anything! -- — Rim McC, 14, Salt Lake City, UT, April, 2007
Can't say enough about our Serendipity experience. I didn't expect everything to be so first rate, and personalized. The Serendipity staff was friendly and bent over backwards to make our trip enjoyable.
The trip was more than I had hoped for. I really enjoyed the personal attention we received. We didn't have to worry about anything. The Pacuare river was fantastic; Philipe and Jose (the guides) made the trip so wonderful. It was my first hot air balloon flight -- and I loved it. Esteban (the pilot) was great. I love horses, and yours were very enjoyable. The stables were great. — Roxanne F., Hawthorne, WI, January, 2007
(Serendipity guide) José contributed largely to the great vacation. He pointed out so many things and taught us so much about Costa Rican culture, wildlife, language and more. Also, every time we went to a secret hot springs or a very private hiking trail, I realized that we could not have found these places without Serendipity. My experience in Costa Rica was enhanced greatly by our knowledgeable and fun guide and by Serendipity! PURA VIDA! — Sarah N., (16 yr), Chestnut Hill, MA, April, 2007
This vacation went way beyond my expectations. Not only was (Serendipity principal guide) Kirk fantastic but every person we dealt with from Serendipity-additional guides or just people working or helping out-were outstanding. Everyone was exceptional in their knowledge and capabilities. And beyond that, they supported, encouraged, and helped me get through my moments of fear. Thank you to all! — Sue F., Hainesport, NJ, July, 2006
We didn't know much about Costa Rica and honestly weren't sure what to expect. Basically, we were ready to take a chance and %quot;roll with the punches%quot;, whatever happened.
Fortunately, that wasn't necessary, because it turned out Serendipity created one of the best organized trips we have ever taken.
It was so well done that I feel obligated to take the time to tell you about it. I own a small company and so I am very aware of the importance of people in this type of business. They can make or break a client relationship. You will probably agree with me that it is not easy to find individuals that you can trust with the "whole thing". So I felt it was important to pass on to you our experience with Matt Flores. Here's a quick summary from my perspective - he is technically competent, organized, dependable, and most importantly - very, very good with clients. He is deferential to the client without being subservient, has good antennae for all the nuances of personal relationships, and the bottom line - he is a genuine, nice person that you want to hang out with (this is not easy to find).
Thanks again for a great experience. — Tom M., Hackensack, NJ, March, 2007
This was the most well taken care of we have ever been while traveling in a foreign country. Serendipity guide Andres did a tremendous job of (1) making the guiding look easy and relaxed, (2) explorig culture, botany, wildlife, history as we traveled and pointing out interesting things, (3) making us comfortable with activities we had never tried before and instilling confidence in us that we could do it.
I would also compliment all the "single day guides" who helped with various activities -- they were professional and clearly took their job seriously yet were relaxed and fun to be around.
It was a pleasure to spend the entire time with Andres - we feel as though he is a part of our family and certainly will be among our fondest memories of Costa Rica. He clearly loves his country and is well able to communicate that love to use. -- — Vilija A., Salt Lake City, UT, April, 2007
