We left our hearts in Costa Rica…
We fell in love with Costa Rica on our first visit …it left an indelible mark on our hearts, and we wanted more! We spent our time in many of the Central Valley rural areas that encircle San Jose, the capital. At elevations of 3,000 to 5,000 feet, the weather is like perpetual springtime. Temperatures ranged about 65-80 degrees, the air was clean and fresh, and our bedroom windows opened to the outdoors, unobstructed by unnecessary screens. There were lush, green tropical plants, and vivid flowers everywhere you looked. The people were kind and helpful to us, making us feel welcome.
After returning home, all we could think about was going back, living, and retiring there. The symbol of this website is the brilliant, Blue Morpho butterfly that is native to Costa Rica. There is a fable about the Blue Morpho, that if you see one, miracles can happen, dreams can come true. Our dream did come true, as we are now living in Costa Rica. Often, when we sit on our front porch, we are graced by the presence of a beautiful Blue Morpho and count our blessings.
