I have lived here from USA TWENTY years and if YOU dont yet know what CR “women” want … go hang out where the older Gringos do..(clinging to there cold coffee, cos THEY DID find out so cannot afford a second cup)
Because now thay found out what CR women want MONEY!!!! from the old and foolish Gringos who mistake the Bimbettes advances for “LOVE ” Well 90% of them anyway..I meet 17 yr olds who ask me to introduce them to my male guests at my B&B with the words “It dooesn’t matter if they are over 80 yrs old I want memeet Gringos”
I could tell a million sob stories from the older foolish Gringos ..LOL under the guise of “LOVE” oh dear !!! and they tell “She took me for over $400,000
NO Sir you GAVE it to her under the guise of “LOVE” and OH the baby she claims is yours and you have been paying for has turned out to be her REAL boyfriend’s the mechanic who lives across the street from her..when not sleeping in her bed ..Such a shame …No thought of DNA??
Now don’t get me wrong I have Costa Rican girl friends who also agree that this is the general mode ..and WHO pray tell is at fault? The silly Gringo or the gold digging Tica bimbette? YOU figure that out!!
and as for driving in CR MY guests from all over the world often turn in their rent a car after a 2 day experience and prefer to carreen around in a bus..Oh the joys of living here ..20years flew by, but time to sell up and stop the Carnival..I have had enough laughs ..so now Steve do your homework 🙂Not having had much to do with single Costa Rican women, I can’t comment on the foregoing opinions, but as to the driving here, I just have to differ.
We have had a fair number of visitors who have driven extensively in Costa Rica and who have also driven in other Central American countries, in Italy and Spain, and in Boston. According to them, all those drivers are much worse than Costa Ricans.
Are there a few nutzos out there on the roads? Of course there are. But where is that not true? And none of our visitors has ever turned in a rental car early. I can only conclude that the person who wrote those comments is catering to the wimp trade.
Well said David!
We have a guest house that we lease out and (since 5-Jan) it has been vacant 2 days. Over 75% of those guests have had rental cars for most, if not all, of their visit!If you learn to drive LIKE a Tico, there is no problem driving WITH Ticos!
I have written before that my philosophy is “Drive like a Tico; die like a Tico.”
But seriously, I drive very defensively, always concede the right of way, never drink and drive, and avoid driving the mountain roads after dark whenever possible. And in six and a half years, the closest call we’ve had was one morning driving to the airport in rush hour traffic when a brahma bull had gotten out and was running back and forth across the autopista. You can’t blame Costa Rican drivers for that!
