I think it depends about the person. I for myself am perfectly fine by myself. But I know that other people are not. This is also why I think it's necessary that if you move to another country to immerse into the culture and learn the language to a level that you can at least have a simple conversation. And yes, long distance relationships suck. I experience this first hand right now. Yes, it's a huge adjustment to move to another country but when you're open to new things, a different culture and language.... I've seen gringos moving to Costa Rica being miserable and not adapting at all to the culture and language. But as I said, it depends on the person, some people, like me, are perfectly fine by themselves while other seek company. I love watching your videos and I hope to meet you in person at some point when I join my fiancée later this year with my little dachshund!

@CostaRicaStory 2 месяца назад

Thanks Lizzy and I agree, it is important to be open to your new world and embrace it.

@plantbasedlizzy 2 месяца назад

@@CostaRicaStory Definitely! Just get out of your comfort zone and try to immerse a new culture! To me, foreign cultures are fascinating!

@glenn9057 3 месяца назад

good vid. i think many retired folks deal with the loneliness factor regardless of where they live. what brought you to Costa Rica

@dirkswildworld 3 месяца назад

Thank you, amigo Ed, for this one. An important one indeed. Lonliness could be a killer, if you allow it to take advantage on you. I know it, as I cannot be all alone for myself for a long time. To a certain point, I have to get in touch with other people. But as you said, there is a difference between being alone and lonely! Stay safe and keep on rocking!

@CostaRicaStory 2 месяца назад

Thanks Dirk, you are never alone or lonley, on top of all your human friends, you have thousands of little buddies all over the place🕷️🐞🐛🐜🦟🪲🪳🕷️😉

@glenn9057 3 месяца назад

i dont understand the lonely thing. im a retired single guy and live alone. if i get a little cabin fever i get in my car and go sonewhere and do something. i go to the gym, to the supermarket, to a diner, parks, etc. the freedom of not having to work is the most liberating feeling ever. i dont need to work to meet my needs. im trying to stay healthy by living a healthy lifestyle. no drugs and alcohol, good eating habits, exercise, etc i wish i could have retired at age 50 instead of age 60. im 68 now. i want to hit the pause button and stop getting older so i can have this time in my life for longer😁

@CostaRicaStory 2 месяца назад

Yeah, having a purpose is key, no matter what your situation is.

@michaeloriada6177 3 месяца назад

Great pointers Ed. Maybe a dog would help with loneliness 😀

@CostaRicaStory 2 месяца назад

Well there are definitely plenty of Dogs here if anyone wants companionship.🐕

Hola Señor Ed. Many of the good points you made are a part of my single man move to CR too. I had a plan what I thought I wanted to do when I got here, but that was not what I eventually did. I could still do that, and I just might. I have traveled a bit especially in the first year from North to South, a quick visit to Nicaragua and a few 2 day trips closer to home to Panama. My good Tico friend Alex has taken me on adventures to small towns, big cities like San Jose, high mountain areas seeing volcanos in the distance, waterfalls, historic sites and visiting his family and friends high up into the mountains of Perez. And a number of other major locations I’ve explored on my own like whale watching. You even took me on an day trip to the Marino Ballena National Park and a walk to the Whale Tail. I like you lived alone for quite a few years after my marriage disolved and did find a great relationship for 5 years many years after the fact. Getting into a relationship after I moved here was not on the list, and it’s still not. I’m happy to be busy some days with friends I’ve made, and others I find home life comforting and I also have my love of cooking as well. Everyone’s journey will be different, and you just need to decide what makes you happy to be here and enjoy the days as one folds into the next. I have managed to lose an incredible amount of weight because of my move to CR. I don’t miss work after 50 years of it, but I am starting to find a number of things to keep me occupied more and more, which is alright as long as I’m in control of my time and not someone else. You’re so welcome to of had the use of the “Don Cam” as you call it…anytime amigo. 🙂

@CostaRicaStory 2 месяца назад

Thanks again for the Don Cam and you have a big enough circle of friends you always have options.🙂🤙
