🇨🇷 Costa Rica is NOT What You Think • First Impressions of San Jose

San Jose is the capital city of Costa Rica, located in the heart of the Central Valley. It is a bustling and vibrant city, known for its rich history, cultural diversity, and stunning architecture. San Jose is also home to many museums, galleries, theaters, and other cultural institutions, making it a hub of artistic and intellectual activity in the country.
One of the main attractions of San Jose is its central location, which makes it an ideal base for exploring the rest of Costa Rica. The city is surrounded by picturesque mountains and valleys, and is just a short drive away from some of the country's most popular tourist destinations, including the Arenal Volcano, the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, and the Pacific and Caribbean coasts. Whether you're interested in history, culture, nature, or adventure, San Jose is a great place to start your journey in Costa Rica.

ABOUT SER ANDY
Hi, I'm Andy. I am a Vietnamese now living in the U.S.. After graduating from Loyola Law School in Los Angeles, CA., I decided to make my life-long dream of documenting unique foods and culture around the world and sharing them with you a reality. Creating food and culture content is a part-time hustle at the moment but a full-time obsession for sure. I am new at this! So please free to let me know what you think of the videos. I would love to hear constructive criticism and feedback. I am here for you all. Also feel free to let me know what food you want me to try or where I should visit in the future. I will make it happen. I promise you all!

[@user-ix8kx4yf5x]

Humble and kind-hearted people are always welcome. Pura Vida.

[@LoursCaser]

An experience of a lifetime full of love Pura Vida!

[@waltoncharles8972]

Love your videos man you make the food look so amazing. Bro @9:00 was creepy af

[@jens.einzelgaenger.mp4]

I'm from CR and I live near downtown San jose and it's fun to see locations that I walk by almost on the daily basis on a channel talking about my country. Glad you had a great time here. It's furnny but all the sounds that you can hear on this video are annoying or I just ignore but watching and hearing it on your video hits differnent. That food you ate at the Central Market is called Casado. I belive the name came from a tipical dish referring to what a Married man would normally eats, hence the name Casado (married man).

[@juanshaftpatel7488]

is the delrey still open?

[@FollowMeOnTwitch]

I'm headed to CR in a few weeks. Can't wait!

Hello, Sensei Andy great videos, I'm looking forward to visit Costa Rica look good but the food look better,you got me hungry 😅

[@serandy]

Haha, sensei dagmarrr. Im glad my vid made u hungry. It means i did my job haa

[@anthonyvence8029]

Nice video. I really liked that market. I will be traveling to San Jose. Where was your hotel at?

[@serandy]

I stayed at Cando Apartments on Central Avenue, right behind the Jade museum. Great location. 10 min walk to the maket on the same main walking street you see in the video.

[@lorlast5204]

Did you take public transportation from airport to downtown? I am planning to go there this June. thank you!

[@serandy]

Yes i did. A taxi ride from the aiport to downtown san jose should be $20-$30. If you choose uber than you have to walk outside the airport. Its a small airport so you can walk for 3-4 minutes. Your uber driver will tell u the meet up location nearby. make aure to negotiate if pick a taxi

[@lorlast5204]

@@serandy thank you! o

[@josiasharleyo.2804]

Hey guys you can take an Uber it's way cheaper

[@OG_DouG]

as a Costa Rican I gotta say that I love how much you enjoyed the food, I've been saying that Costa Rican food is underrated for a very long time, never seen a foreigner that didn't like it. hope you enjoy my country when you visit it again, hope you'll be safe when you do visit as well

[@user-ix8kx4yf5x]

Very Good , Food Stand Lady English is Good Enoug👍👍

[@kimberlyvalerioperaza1489]

I already watched all your videos from Costa Rica (my country) it makes me happy that you like the food! Pure Life!!

[@videoshoot7]

One should be careful in Central Market area. Some body pulled by gold bracelet and ran away. I have shouted to catch but no body helped. I was so disappointed visiting Costa Rica. New visitors/travelers should be very careful to avoid this type of incidents
