I’m sitting on the beach south end of Penticton, and it’s the perfect summer night, 32 degrees, completely blue skies, and barely a ripple on the water. I want to get there come winter time. Congrats on your 5th anniversary!

I moved from Costa Rica to Canada 19 years ago and oh man I miss it big time. I like your content and you got a new subscriber 😊

Congratulations, I love your videos and enjoy your adventures, I noted you family is happy in thad wonderful Country. You do the best, and I hope you feel happy in this beautifull Country.

Been watching since the beginning. I'm partial to the Coco/Hermosa area and remember y'all spotting monkeys for the first time and swimming at night in the pool. The boys are so big! Best of luck to your family. Your story is so inspiring.

Congratulations on your 5th anniversary in my country of birth 👌🏻❤️! I wish you guys all the best always, and thank you for further promoting Costa Rica 🇨🇷

Congratulations on following your dream and creating a wonderful life for your children. You both look so healthy with your glowing skin. I will be watching more. My best to all of you and sweet Ollie💖

Welcome to my beautiful Costa Rica I love your videos ..

Thank you for making the videos. Awesome.. Congratulations ....

Awesome Content! Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience. My dream is to live in Costa Rica one day. Watching your beautiful family enjoy paradise proves that it’s possible for anyone to live there if properly planned and executed. I might sign up for relocation consultation services before I move. Thanks again!

Hi guys, what an excellent video, they brought me to tears of nostalgia with this beautiful report that they did about their personal experiences that they have had since they came to live in Costa Rica. I miss my country very much with all my being because I have lived in Marseille France since 2014 and how I miss everything, my people and my land. I have not been able to return since 2019 and then with the pandemic I could no longer go, now I hope to be able to visit my family this year if God allows it. Thank you very much for choosing my country Costa Rica to come live with your beautiful family and for showing our culture and the natural wonders that we have in my country. They are a very beautiful family, and I wish them much success in all their upcoming projects. A cordial greeting from this Tica from Marseille France 🇫🇷 to Costa Rica!!!! Pure Life!!!! 🇨🇷❤️☀️🌊🏖️🌴🍹😉🤙 Hola chicos, que excelente video, me sacaron lagrimas de nostalgia con este hermoso reportaje que hicieron sobre sus experiencias personales que han tenido desde que se vinieron a vivir a Costa Rica. Extraño mucho a mi país con todo mi ser porque vivo en Marsella Francia desde el 2014 y como extraño todo, mi gente y mi tierra. No he podido regresar desde el 2019 y luego con la pandemia ya no pude ir, ahora espero poder visitar a mi familia este año si Dios lo permite. Muchas gracias por elegir mi país Costa Rica para venir a vivir con su hermosa familia y por mostrar nuestra cultura y las maravillas naturales que tenemos en mi país. Son una familia muy hermosa, y les deseo mucho éxito en todos sus próximos proyectos. Un cordial saludo de esta Tica desde Marsella Francia 🇫🇷 a Costa Rica!!!! Pura Vida!!!! 🇨🇷❤️☀️🌊🏖️🌴🍹😉🤙

Congrats to you both!

This is a great video

Thanks guys!! U have been such an inspiration and I have loved following your journey! Hope to see u soon right behind u! So happy for u!!😎

Great video, congrats! I plan to travel to Costa Rica in March !

Wowww👏 damn Chris, this is such an epic recap of your guy's awesome adventure/life over there. What you and your wife have done is super cool and inspiring👌 Been a long minute since I've seen you, and would love to make it out there one day! Truly amazing🍻

New subbie from Alberta. Thanks for sharing - what a beautiful life you’ve created in CR! Congrats on 5 years.

You done so much.. congratulations..so happy for you

Love the Video! Thank you for inspiring us to get out & live the Pura Vida! Hope to meet you guys in Costa one day.

This was such a joy to watch! Love all your video's, but this one was special. Our move to Costa Rica has been delayed,but we can't wait to contact you, and use your consulting services xo

I just returned for a 2 week vacation to CR, and you really hit the nail on the head at the beginning of the video (when you said it’s hard to explain). I have shared my desire to make a move with friends and family, and they think I’m crazy lol.

What an awesome video

Great!. You make my country Pura Vida.

A really helpful video would be describing the process of selling almost everything, what you packed in all those suitcases, what getting through customs was like and the taxes you paid on what you brought in. Did you ship anything and what was involved in that?

Lovely

Congrats you guys sending you lots of love success, health to you all I really enjoy your videos when I go there I want to stay there, you have a very lovely family Pura Vida Costa Rica

Awesome, we are a Canadian family as well and making the move in October! Would love to pick your brain on the Sea Can homes sometime!

Congrats

Love your content. Beautiful

Great jobs guys, been watchin since the start, well close.....

Great channel

Am going to CR soon I want to come by visit you..love ur vids

I really hope I am able to escape Canada as well

WOW, makes me wanna do the same !!!!!

pura vida family take care my country isnt perfect but you could enjoy things that other countries dont have it or they lose by modern trends

I live in northern Minnesota and plan on moving out of the country. I keep getting drawn to Costa Rica while doing my research. Me and my friend are going to come down a couple times on vacation to make sure that's the right move. Hope to find you guys down there to bombard you with questions lol

Just curious if you guys had visited different places in CR before deciding to relocate?

Great Videos!!! We would live to interview you in our channel to share your experience with our customers looking to move to Costa Rica

We are looking at making the move in about a years time. My wife works for Marriott, and she wants to run one of the resorts there.

Wowww what a video ❤️❤️🌟👍congratulations, iam a tico living in Heredia ,, i wish you the best nice family 🌟❤️🙏🏼

Thank you for your videos. Guys , how much is the school for kids, and children garden .

I love this video! My family has visited Costa Rica twice and I would love to retire there so bad. Could you please share information about residency or share an attorney. Also information about building a home using containers.

WAIT!!! You’re living in a container??? My mind is blown. This is AMAAAAAAAAAAAZINNNNNNNG!!! I need more info. How do we get one of these?

your video really was my final answer to move to Costa Rica, I was wondering how much was the cost of building the new house? I wanna do the same thing and I was wondering how much will be the cost, Best of all from Toronto.

I heard the traffic is bad

Is this video from costa rica or nicaragua? I just saw granada. Also the volcano part is from nicaragua 😅.

Hola saludos como les a ido en su estadía en nuestro país🇨🇷?

And now you are moving to Asia?

👌🏻🇨🇦🤜🏻🤛🏻🇨🇷💚

✨👍🌴🍍😍⛱️🎊✨

🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🌴🌊☀️👍👌

how do you really pronounce Costa Rica.. seriously.. is it cost a rica?

Very nice, but you guys destroyed all the trees around as typical Americans. If you are not going to love and be nature's conscious why move to CR ?

Where in Costa Rica are you? My step daughter just moved there and she loves it!
