    I have to agree with Maravilla… friends that paid big dollars to load a container to ship to their “things” to their new home in CR were quite disappointed when they suffered the loss of items at the hands of the handlers. Then found that leather couches grew green hair as they watched here in CR… a baby grand piano that is useless and now destroyed due to the weather… and a book collection that became dust at the hands of the critters that invaded. They are quite disappointed that they spent all that money on what they thought was important.

    And as Maravilla has pointed out, I had my entire home furnished with beautiful handmade wood items that I could never have dreamed of in the US. And the total cost was less than what most folks in the US pay for an expensive dinning room set!

    Costa Rica for many is a new start and a new adventure… other then some personal items and things that you can carry… why spend the time, effort, and money to ship the “old” to what you hope to be a new beginning?
