I'm Back on Youtube and I have a Big Update! // Costa Rica Vlog// Episode 23

[@sinsski-puravida]

Hi Zoey. Nice to see you back. You guys moved to costa rica same time we did but we were south and you were north. Now we are north and you are south...how funny is that? We were in the mountains above san isidro de general perez zeledon for the first 7 months. Absolutley stunning area but the mountain driving got very tedious for us and dangerous. We now live on a smaller mountain just a few minutes out of Samara. Beautiful mountain and surrounded by jungle Canopy. Love hearing the howler monkeys every day. The difference between here and Nosara are night and day. I did not much care for Nosara or tamagringo. But different strokes for different folks ;). The OSA is beautiful also......We are heading back that way next month for a week to visit our costa rican family. Enjoy the OSA! Pura Vida ;)

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Hey there, wow we swapped places haha! Is the climate hotter up north? And I love the perez zeldon area! So lush and tons of mountains! Thanks for sharing your experience on here! Who knows- it could really support someone who is deciding where to move:)

[@sinsski-puravida]

@@zoewilliamson_costarica Hi ;)....Yes ! when I saw, one of your previous videos, I knew you were no longer in Guanacaste. We loved Perez zeledon but we did not like the mountain driving. Much better infrastructure here for sur & less than two hrs to liberia airport on all paved hyw. and no crazy mountain driving. We are up on a mountain central to both Samara and Carrillo so much nicer up here for sure. I also find the beaches spectacular here and for sure more swimmer friendly. Are you staying in the mountains? We are almost finished out two brand new Rental Casitas. with a 10x30 pool. Give me a shout if you are ever heading this way ok ;) Pura Vida!

Aleluyah. Finally. Welcome back Zoe. Happy times. Thanks for coming back. We missed you.

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

AW! missed you too! Thanks for watching and sticking around!

[@TylerBigHead]

Wait so what was the main reason you guys moved south ?

[@andreaciappi3186]

Wellcome back Zoe and Happy new year !! The new place is fantastic.... where is? my little home is in Playa del Coco. now my wife and I are in Italy but we have a flight to costarica on January 30. Hopefully we can catch it. Come back and delight us with your wonderful videos!!! Thanks

Hi welcome back Happy New Year and best wishes for you and your family in the new home

Happy new year! And thank you so much!

Saludos y bendiciones, Zoe. Hace falta su creación de contenido acerca de Costa Rica, porque me gusta conocer el país mediante las producciones de vídeos en KZbin. Siempre sus ediciones han sido agradables y de mucha calidad. Costa Rica tiene muchas zonas costeras con mucha vegetación y con cercanía a las montañas que las hace más frescas. Me doy cuenta porque en las costas Pacífico Central y Sur hay KZbinrs que observo como Jungle Journey in Costa Rica, Costa Rica Story, Blogging Money Life, Emma in Costa Rica, Coastal Distancing, Plantriotic, West Coast Strays, OsaTropicalPropiedades, La Vida Diaz, entre otros. Gracias.

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Pura vida and thank you for this! I appreciate your comments!

[@altasesperanzas]

Hey there, welcome back Zoe, ! ohhh the family moved South, that new place must be fantastic, best wishes, waiting for new videos.

Thank you! God bless and happy new year!

[@liverpoolrichie5305]

Zoe!!! Glad you are back!!! 😁 I was really surprised you guys moved south!! Hope you and your family enjoyed the holidays!! Wishing you all the best in 2022!! Keep those videos coming!!! Big hug and Cheers!!!!

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

IM BACK YAY! I know shocking right- another move!! More great videos to come! Thanks for your patience during the social media break:)

[@MS-bb3bj]

Hi Zoe , I am glad you all back!

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Thank you! 🤗

[@ericksanchezarrieta9346]

The south pacific area is greener, it has low touristic development, more virgin places to wonder, my dad use toi work in that part of the country for 4 decades. I think you would prefer the south pacific, Wish you the best.!!! Try playa Ventanas!!

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Yes it's so beautiful! So lush and green! I personally prefer more south now that I have traveled around CR:)

[@haydnthrelfall8394]

Oh wow the Osa area! We are an Aussie family and have been researching a possible move to the Nosara area. We had just started watching your channel amongst others for research and inspiration. Only yesterday I came across some videos of the Pan Dulce beach area and that great looking right hand point break!! We then searched some real estate listings and I believe may have viewed a listing for where you guys have purchased! We were wondering what the infrastructure and lifestyle is like down there in comparison to Nosara? Nosara appears to be getting busier and more expensive by the day?

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Hey there! congrats on considering moving to CR!! If you would like contacts for a realtor, shipping company, travel agent, ect, please let me know and I am happy to supply them to help make your move smoother! And to give you the full in-depth scoop about Nosara, then I recommend to message my mom on Facebook Messenger and she is happy to connect 1 on 1. Her name is "Jen Williamson" on Facebook and is fairly quick to reply on there:)

[@haydnthrelfall8394]

Hey that all sounds fantastic!! Thank you!! May we ask what are you guys are now located? It really looks a stunning view! We have watched some videos of the Matapalo and Pan Dulce areas and they look stunning! What is the access to supplies etc like?

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

@@haydnthrelfall8394 We are located in the Uvita/ Dominical/ Ojochal area. And there are 2 Matapalos here in CR. I have visited the one bordering Panama and I actually have a video vlogging this experience if you want to check it out (link attached below): kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJuylKiJm5JqY5o I will say this Matapolo area is super jungly and pretty rural. The more south you go in the country, the more jungle and rural it gets! I have not been to Pan Dulce yet. Also regarding access to supplies where I live: Shipping can be expensive if getting things from the states so I recommend to order ahead before moving here. I plan on making a "what to pack" video to assist people with exactly this. There are hardware and furniture stores around but limited options where I live. I live about 3.5 hours away from the main big city, San Jose and they have almost everything there. A Pricesmart (its like costco), malls, great shopping ect. We try to go there quarterly to have access to these stores:)

[@laurendixon37]

Hi Zoe :) welcome back! I recognise the table in the restaurant! It's great down here, we prefer it to the north. We hope you guys will be happy with your move and I'm sure we'll see you around here :)

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Oh wow- sweet! And thank you!! 😊 And if you ever see me out in public be sure to say hi! I would love to meet you!

[@maukamarine3083]

I seen you guys in Nosara which I wasnt that impressed with as a location to buy. Too touristy and no good stores. Hopefully wherever you are now is a little more accessible and not overpriced. Im coming back down to look again soon and hope to find something . Good to see you back on youtube, you have a talent for video making.

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Thanks so much! And yes, both the inaccessibility and price are the down sides of Nosara. So many incredible things about it there but these were some cons unfortunately. Keep on traveling CR and hopefully you will find the right place for you:)

[@charlitocr5209]

I was missing your vids 😃 good to see you around

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Its good to be back! I missed making them!

[@obedmirandapicado2785]

Glad to see you are back on KZbin. Where exactly in the south are you now? I live in Golfito and I tell you what, you will totally love the South Pacific Coast.

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Hi and thank you! We are in the Osa peninsula area :)

[@traumainformed]

@@zoewilliamson_costarica Hey Zoe. Why did you guys move? We are a family of 5 from the UK and are moving to Costa Rica soon. We are thinking of Nosara as our first destination OR somewhere quieter like Santa Teresa. I'd love your feedback on living in Nosara for a year or so. Thanks

[@elizabethchurchill2933]

Everything is so beautiful! Have you ever wondered what kind of person you could become if you lived as a real adult in the real world, completely free from this soft and extremely privileged cocoon of extended adolescence? I'll keep following you, hoping that someday we might have a chance to see how strong and resourceful you can really be as your own free and independent person. Buena suerte!

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Hi Elizabeth Churchill. Yes it is beautiful here and I am gladly enjoying this period in my life. If you know me, you would know that I am actually an incredibly resourceful, free, strong, independent woman. Just because I do not take the traditional path in life, doesn't mean that I am "cocooned", "privileged" or living my adolescent years wrongly. Little does my channel know that I have 2 other business' aside from this channel and working my way to financial independence this year. Pura Vida and I hope that you find internal peace.

[@nomelise4778]

Oh look another Karen dispensing advice all the while can't seem to figure out her own...

[@urklstad]

@Elizabeth That was probably one of the unnecessarily meanest backhanded things I’ve read today. Did it feel good to write? There are more productive ways to get your dopamine. I hope you find them.

[@DcArmy9015]

Wow, shame on you for assuming Zoe is not free or strong. Such hatred for a young, ambitious, full of life human. I wish to be as happy as Zoe one day.

[@elizabethchurchill2933]

@@DcArmy9015 Excuse me? Where do you see hatred, or what I do or don't assume? You're reading a lot into my question, and that's entirely on you. Zoe is young, she still has a lot to learn about herself and who she has the potential to become. That's not a criticism. She IS living a life of extreme privilege, compared to most Ticas (or even Americans) her age. She doesn't appear to be living independently; as far as I can tell, she lives with and works for her affluent parents. That's not a criticism either, just an observation, and certainly doesn't imply "hatred." I enjoy her channel.

[@alisonlambert1429]

Dare I say 'YEA!' and 'BOO'! in the same sentence? LOL! Yea! it's good to hear from you....but Boo! is that all there is? I was at least hoping to hear what you did while you were away....or what you're doing now and we got neither! But, glad you're doing fine, what ever it is.

[@zoewilliamson_costarica]

Hi Alison, I shared a major update in this video- we moved once again. That's what we have been up to lately lol! Also, more videos to come with some footage from the past few months. Stay tuned for some more future videos!
