I’m Canadian living on the central Pacific coast 24 years and you are right about it bringing back the smile on my face. That’s why I can’t imagine ever leaving.
Beautiful, the way how you connected with the Caribbean culture of Costa Rica. The way how you transmitted the purity of this place is so nice ✨ I’m from Cahuita 🫶🏼🌴
Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️ I loved it so so much there and most likely that is why you can see and feel this energy coming through the video ☺️ Cahuita is beautiful!
On the black sands beach north of Puerto Viejo there were so many naturel wood scuptures to discover! Some of them i brought home as a gift to family and friends. And the biggest ones out there were bigger than a truck, posed to sea, sand and sun. So amaising.
I'm just watching some videos reminiscing about 2023 where I spend 9 weeks off and on over 3 trips to PV. Port vell OMG I ate the vegan gallon pinto a few days a week even though I'm not vegan 😮. Cocles is ok, I mostly went on weekends for fire dance show on Saturday night and to eat Caribbean chicken from my guy at Take it Easy. I spent most of my daytime at Playa Chiquita which is just before punta uva. The bike ride was long from my spot on the black sand beach but I think it's the best beach, way better than Punta Uva and always had green macaws. Thanks for visiting Temps at Jammin, my favourite was jerk jackfruit too and his sorrel. I regret not stopping by as much on my last trip as I had to save cash by cooking at my hostel.
Thank you very much for your comment! Omg, Yes, Temps is such a kind soul, I loved dining at his place so much! I liked Playa Chiquita too, when I was editing the video I realized I didn't have any footage from there, that's why it's not included in the video, but I absolutely agree with you, its beautiful!
hello! I am from Costa Rica, from the city of Limon! I hope you have enjoyed your experience so far in our country! Thank you very much, a place that I recommend is going to Playa Jaco! or to Guanacaste Iguanita beach!, also Quepos, are very beautiful places! although I don't think you want to go back the way you came hahaha, I hope you have a good time! 😊❤
Hello there! Thank you very much for all your recommendations! I’ve fallen in love with Costa Rica and can’t wait to go back one day! Next time I’m in your country I’ll be definitely checking out those places you mentioned ☺️ thank you!
Hy Iryna. Just wanted to say hello. Interesting that you like a black beach. I was in Costa Rica July 2 to 11 2022, and first landed in Oduber airport. Friends of my cousin then drove us to the capital and then onto the Caribbean side. I loved Playa Arrecife and Manzanillo where we had a terrific meal at Mr. Maxies.
@@johnschmidt9195 hi John! Yeah, I loved the black beach, especially with the sunlight present, it looked the sand was full of diamonds or something, it sparkled so much! ☺️
Iryna will you be there still the start of March? I’m moving in a few weeks and your videos are amazing! I feel the exact same way about puerto viejo! I’m from Scotland 🏴 visited in May and it stole my heart! Especially the black sand beach xxxx
Hi Steph! Thank you so much for your kind words ☺Yes, I know, I've fallen in love with Puerto Viejo and it is probably my favorite place in CR. I wish we could meet, but I already left the country, but who knows, I might be coming back one day ☺ If so I will let you know! Wishing you all the best with your move! 🤗
Privet. You sound so happy being there in Costa Rica. I love my home in Costa rica too but its also sad and lonely to travel alone. Its nice two people enjoy the experience together and remind eachother things like a night ner the fire pit. Two peolple are like that panoramic 360 view camera.
Hi there, thank you for sharing your opinion. I view things a little differently, for me traveling alone is a form of self-discovery and it’s very interesting experience! Of course traveling together is amazing too, but sometimes it’s not possible to do, and so I believe one should not stop themselves from traveling only because they’re going ro be alone on that trip. This is fun too ☺️
Hilarious, I lived here for four years right when Puerto had just gotten electricity. Mostly locals and a couple of surfers back then. The coast was still owned by local farmers. That part has been lost.(made with coconut milk) and journey cake. It was a great middle class community of cocoa farmers. Are you Ukrainian?
I love your video and intention during trip , which transportation did you use to get this area from airport or Sanjose?I'm thinking solo trip as well.
Thank you! I took a direct public bus from Mepe Terminal in San José, but that was a bit tough I have to say. You can also book a direct shuttle to Puerto Viejo from the airport or San José city. You can Google shuttle Costa Rica and contact a few companies to find out all the details. This is more of a pleasant way to get there, but the bus will do too, so it’s basically up to you ☺️
Hi Anna, as far as I remember, there are mosquitos, but it really depends on the location and season I believe, some areas are more populated with the mosquitoes and some are less. I never use a repellent myself, but I know a lot of people do, so if you feel more comfortable bringing it with you, then of course!
@@irynakorniienko so it is most like not that big problem .. I have allergies and I always try stock up with repellents. however i learned in thailand that we should use local repellent because those are designed for the local insects.. thank you for you prom response.
@@Frescas well, for the past 13 years I’ve been living in UAE, moved outside of my home country quite early in my life. South America has always been a dream destination for me, it fascinates me, it’s my favorite continent ❤️
@@irynakorniienko UAE would be nice to visit. As for myself, I think it would be hard to make friends in a country like that. Cultural differences and all. Plus I assume it's out of my price range lol. Ukraine is a beautiful country. I've always wanted to visit Kyiv.
@@Frescas I understand, for some people it’s like that, but I have to add that UAE is a very cosmopolitan country and here you get to meet people from all over the globe! And of course, I love Kyiv too, my city ❤️ and where are you from?
@@irynakorniienko I'm an American from California. Sacramento to be precise. It's hot and boring here. But I am close to nature which is the only upside. Even with the situation going on over there, I'd still go and visit. Do you ever go back to visit?
@@stailor1 that’s great to hear! Well, I don’t have a blog, so far I’m just sharing this content on RU-vid. Working on posting more regularly and I feel like it’s right about time to start sharing things on Instagram again 😂
Rice n beans>gallopinto (I'm Costarican) Speaking about everything, I wouldn't ride a kayak nearby manglars, there's prob crocs bigger than your kayak there just sayin
@@irynakorniienko I just reminded I used to go swimming at Río Los Ahogados on Guanacaste when I just moved to that province. I went many times and it was super cool. Then like 5 years later I heard it was infested with crocs 💀🌚
@@joules_sw omg 😱🙈 how lucky were you that everything turned out just fine! 🙌 yes, that’s a reminder for all of us to do some research before getting in the waters of the area we’re not familiar with 🙈
Well she needed the funds to sit in one of the most expensive bakeries in PV. smh ... Lived here (in paradise) for 20 years, do you want reality or vacation? Indeed paradise.
