February 22, 2010 at 11:18 pm #204552AndrewKeymasterI have been dating the same lady who’s originally from Guatemala for six years now and prior to that was most fortunate to have met some truly magnificent Costa Rican women…

Fisr try Costa Rica Now by Phil Baker and Living Abroad in Costa Rica bt Erin Van Rean. If you plans may envolve owning, Phil Bakers book is by far better and does a bettr job of coverinng the countries many region. He is also a consultant living in Costa Rica. Next would be the internet. I prefer book info due to the fact that the authors have spent a lot time verifying there work. There is a lot more misinformation on the internet.
If you want to live your life and are willing to at least speak SOME Spanish, this place is the perfect mix amenities and the less developed world with both traditional and progressive life styles available.
There are some wonderful women in Costa Rica. Prostitution is also legal here. Costa Rica Now sums it up quite well regarding relationships here. If you want a serious one, speak Spanish and live here (duh). If you want to play, well I am told that its a great playground.
There are some people on this board that have forgotten what it is like to be single. Or no longer value or can participate in sexual intimacy for various reasons or preferences. Irrespective of that, I think it is quite possible to find a satisfying mate here so I would say give it a try but research first and qualify your info source. Scott has a book on the basic of property purchases. Remeber you get what you pay for and that is why professionals that truly know Costa Rica charge for their info, books, consultant and attorney services and so on.(Watch out for attorneys here).

I found mine to be as good here as she was in the States. I don’t think many of us came here with Tica chicas and sex on our minds.
If you think that’s what you want to do you had better think long and hard. Hispanics do not look at things the way Americanos do nor do they think like us.
It took me a year of stress and frustration to realize the difference while losing 50 pounds in the process.
If you need to diet, try it. -
