I am a single man 71 years old. who is planning to move to Costa Rico. Many of the Costa Rico videos are posted by couples. I want to thank you for your perspective as a single man.❤

[@CostaRicaStory]

You are very welcome🙂👍

[@burckstevens4254]

Thank you! I too enjoyed the video and your great attitud!

[@CostaRicaStory]

Thank you very much and thanks for watching🙂👍

[@HelenBeeYoga]

I agree with so many of these things. There are plenty of people here who will see what they can extract from you whether it be your money or your time. Definitely choose your friends wisely. I learned the hard way a few times.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Well said HelenBee👍

[@neilcondon5797]

I really like this video. You have a very simple way of reflecting! Thank you!

[@CostaRicaStory]

Thank you very much and thanks for watching🙂👍

[@dougdileo4727]

good morning

[@CostaRicaStory]

Dang Doug, where have you been?, I hope all is well🙂👍

[@lynda1831]

I live in Grecia, CR. I could relate to everything you said; these lessons are real, and will be helpful for those considering a move here. So heartfelt. Gracias! P.S. I like you.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Ha ha, gracias, I like you too Lynda🙂👍

[@dirkswildworld]

😂yepp...creepy crawlies WILL always win. Well said... Great video as always. Loved it! Just watched one of a german guy who returned to Germany, as there were just too many issues this family was confronted with during their expat life in CR. The other side of the coin, not all is paradise!

[@CostaRicaStory]

And you know I can’t talk about creepy crawlys without thinking of you and your “pets”🕷️😅

[@eduardodiaz5877]

HEY ED, PURA VIDA AMIGO, HEY Another Great Morning Breakfast Coffee Video 😂,

[@CostaRicaStory]

Salude☕️☕️

[@jerry8mm]

That's a lot of important and useful advice squeezed into one video. That was all well said.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Thanks Jerry😁

[@christinevanzandbergen4870]

OMG, please be careful walking around the waterfalls. The rock surface can be very slippery. I can feel my blood pressure rising just watching you walk around. I love the JFK reference.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Very good advice, always watch your step especially on wet rocks.🙂👍

[@sabrinamadison8769]

a lot of good insight. Thank you for sharing

[@CostaRicaStory]

Mucho gusto!🙂👍

[@joules_sw]

I like the format of your videos. I also like your position towards bugs, we love in their world but most importantly we need them to survive. I just let them roam into my house unless it's something dangerous

[@3826plks]

Enjoyed your videos. I’ve watched 2 of them so far.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Muchas Gracias for watching🙂👍

[@angelromero8076]

Thanks for the information!

[@CostaRicaStory]

Con mucho gusto!🙂

[@sandrabedard7848]

Yep. We have 3 years here too.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Congrats on the milestone 👍

[@carlosnyc13]

I live in nyc & women always asking for cash. So that’s a universal problem. I’m 1/2 Costa Rican & I’ve been going to Costa Rica for 45 years. If you want to live by the beach areas you will have creepy crawlies. If you live more inland you will have much less of the creepy crawlies. I remember Tamarindo when it was a tiny farming area. Now there are huge hotels & breakfast cost $22. 😆 When your around people of lower economic situations they will always look out for handouts. Happens here in America all the time. People think that they go to a different county that this won’t happen to them. Well your just fooling yourself.

[@louisefleming3117]

"separate you from your money" LOL

[@markminister2599]

Yes it is a great channel.

[@CostaRicaStory]

Gracias Mark🙂👍

[@StuG-pr9tf]

Just found your channel yesterday ( NEW subscriber ) appreciate your honesty. If I leave America next year, my main concerns as far as which country I relocate to are: #1 Clean drinking water on a day-to-day basis #2 good reliable internet service #3 are there cities in Costa Rica that have good size city parks + a few disc golf courses? #4 If I obtain my motorcycle license and purchase a brand new scooter, would be safer and more economical to ride that everywhere instead of owning a car?
