    [quote=”waggoner41″][quote=”ymontagne”]Last time, while visiting Dominical/Uvita, we really noticed that it didn’t appear that many people who move to the area last more than 2 or 3 years. Wrong impression?[/quote]

    Quite frankly I think many people make hasty decisions about moving to Costa Rica. The land is beautiful and the people are wonderful but choosing the wrong area for various reasons can sour you.:cry:
    I researched Costa Rica on-line for several years before even visiting. I knew what I wanted in the way of climate and myriad other issues. i’m here to stay.:D
    Make sure you know what you want and take the time to find it. Paradise is not that easy to come by.:?[/quote]

    Thank you for the advise, we have been doing our research for about 17 years, and “some day” will never come unless we do it! 😀

    [quote=”maravilla”]i feel the same way. now that we’re all here, they should close the gates!! jejeje or start giving wannabe expats a psycho profile before they let them in. i’ve met some real doozies in the last 5 years. it’s kind of like the patients running the asylum.[/quote]

    Well, I think that there is a certain type of person that makes it through living in CR. To be honest with you, we will be there in January, please dont close that gate! :)We have had enough here in the US, people are stupid!

    [quote=”hrichards”]I wish that most americans would get the heck out of costa rica. I myself am an american and have lived here for over 10 years.. and most of the perks that have attracted me to costa rica are all slowly changing. much due to the U.S. migration here and all the attention that it brings along with that migration.

    what a sad time

    it may be time to look for anotehr country.

    hey who knows.. maybe in a few years nicaraugua will be the place.. or maybe chile.. any suggestions for a future home[/quote]

    Why do you say that about how you wish most Americans would leave CR? Is it because you moved to CR to get away from the Americans? Maybe its like my dad used to say when he finally bought his house in Northern Wisconsin,(where he vacationed since he was 18 that he now was no longer a tourist, and wished the people from Illinois would quit coming up there and ruining the beauty of the North Woods?
