#LivinginCostaRica #CostaRicaLife #ExpatInterview
Bob and Ziggy have lived in Costa Rica for 2 1/2 years now and trust me, they do live in their own little paradise. A beautiful piece of property complete with a 'extreme jungle trek', which we did awhile back (see video link below). They retired early from the United States and set up shop about 30 minutes from La Fortuna but they didn't really retire because they are utilizing their property for others to enjoy- pool, jungle trek, tons of birds, animals, hiking trails, bicycles for touring the Chachagua area. Unfortunately, they were just getting rolling when the pandemic started. So here michael alan (Travel Costa Rica NOW) sits down with Bob and Ziggy to discuss their story on how they ended up in Costa Rica doing what they're doing. What do they like about Costa Rica? What don't they like? Do they plan to stay in Costa Rica? What advice would they give others who are thinking about living and/or retiring in Costa Rica?

Things to do in La Fortuna Costa Rica. Want a more demanding hike than just walking around on some generic hiking trails? A fun trek thru the jungle? Maybe you'd like to see some toucans, sloths, frogs and a million other kinds of birds. Take a dip in the pool when you're done. Eat, drink and chill. Travel Costa Rica NOW has the place for you. Our friends Bob & Ziggy have 17 acres of NATURE, complete with flora and fauna in Chachagua about 20 minutes outside of La Fortuna... and they've opened it up to the public. This is a great option if you're in La Fortuna and you want something a little more extreme but also want to see the animals and birds. OH and they have easier hikes as well. A great place to spend a few hours and make sure to bring your cameras.
Living life in La Fortuna Costa Rica is great. Why? Because there's so many things to do. And some are free, like the local waterhole, El Salto. Both locals and tourists enjoy an afternoon at Salto. You can hike, swim, explore, swing off a rope, chill, drink beers, smoke a bit... Salto is just a great place to hang out on a hot day. And it's only about a mile out of La Fortuna central, so within walking distance. *it's a 20 minute walk from my house, how cool is that. Salto is FREE which is nice for the budget traveler. But if you got a few bucks for tours, La Fortuna, also can provide a lot of adventure- ziplines through the jungle and over waterfall, ATV tours, biking, hiking, waterfall rappelling, rafting, night hikes and sooooooo much more. Again, an afternoon exploring, swimming, chilling, drinking, waterver at Salto is also a very nice way to spend the afternoon. Things to Do in La Fortuna Costa Rica El Salto the Local Waterhole and hiking around.
Things to do around Costa Rica. Free things to do. Budget travel in Costa Rica. Where to the locals to in La Fortuna Costa Rica? Travel Costa Rica on a budget.

"Off the hamster wheel." That sums it up perfectly. We just came back into town after spending a few months in the mountains near Turrialba. It felt a bit like coming home. We're staying in a rental house in Invu that we'd love to buy, which is very near Chachagua. This area near La Fortuna is one of our favorites in all of Costa Rica, and we completely understand how Bob and Ziggy are so content here. :-)

Michael, another fandamtastic video very well done and presented. And thanks for introducing me (us) to Bob and Ziggy. They're starting the new chapter of their lives with a bang in, in my opinion, the absolute BEST place in the whole damned planet they could have chosen. I'm sure I'll meet them when I get there, and you and D'Angelo (sp?) and I'm looking forward to it. You ask...why do you think we'll meet? My answer...because I want it to happen :) I have already started my transformation into being a digital nomad and I'm excited! I'm building my H Dambulance now and it's gonna be frickin SWEET. What the hell is a H DAmbulance? A retired 4x4 ambulance that I'm turning into my self sustaining tiny house, which will also be the office I operate out of vloging my informative travel videos onto RU-vid. I'm building my channel as we speak. And...in the H DAmbulance with me and my dog will be one of my Harley Davidsons. That I can load in and out whenever I want...easily. Pulling behind us will be a closed in trailer hauling my other Harley Davidson...and stuff. So, I'll have two H.D.s and an "ambulance". H DAmbulance. After my build, my subscribers will get to come along to Costa Rica on a travel adventure, and I'll be sending them every bit of information I can gather. Like...do's...don'ts, immigration rules, real-estate, lifestyle changes, and the list goes on...and on...and on. And the cool part is, I've got a cool friend down here named Michael that owns a travel business that can hook folks up with whatever they want and he's a straight shooter. He'll treat ya right. DAMM!!! This ain't no frickin sales pitch!!! Sorry Michel. I ain't tryin to sell anybody shit. My cards are always on the table, and I speak the truth from my heart. I'm just excited about my plans, and I want so say THANK YOU for being the inspiration behind it. You started this shit buddy! :) haha For me, what started out as just a curiosity about Costa Rica lead to a brother steering this old dog to RU-vid to get some answers. And then there was Michael. :) You are a bottomless well of information and your delivery always has me smiling, taking notes, and leaves me anxious for your next video. Until I understood that I could start making a few bucks off RU-vid, and then seriously studying and learning about vloging and making videos and stuff, (yup...I payed for a few courses) I just felt you were making some damned good, informative, honest, unbiased videos. Thank you. And now that this old dog is learning new tricks, I have a pretty damned good understanding on what's needed for me to operate comfortably being a digital nomad. With that understanding comes my realization how frickin spot on you are on your content and delivery, as well as me understanding that, unbeknownst to both of us, you were schooling me in the start, operation, and maintenance of my digital nomadic lifestyle. Again, I thank you Michael. The first tool is ordered. My drone will be here Monday. Damm!!! I've been here way to long. I'll be seein ya'll later. I'm looking for the ambulance I want. When I find it the transformation will begin. I'll be liquidating all, and my goal is to be on the road by December next year at the latest. See ya...laterz. Choperz...out.

Hey Bob from the video...if you check in here, I was wondering if you competed in any no-gi NAGA events back in the day(circa 2006-2009 or something like that) back on the east coast(New Jersey & New York). You look exactly like I guy I fought once. I still have a picture actually.

What did they have to pay for a property like that in La Fortuna?
@iambobsnyder
@iambobsnyder 2 года назад
We purchased the property in 2019 (to clear the confusion from the video!). The owner was asking $275,000 and we paid $260,000. We are 12 km from Fortuna, about 20 minutes on Highway 702. We are 3 km from the highway, last 2 km on a dirt road. The house is 2 bedrooms, 1 1/4 baths plus another bathroom and enclosed shower by the pool. Everything in good condition and was sold furnished.
