Thinking of all the VIP Members who don’t yet live in Costa Rica or who don’t speak enough Spanish, I will create regular news highlights videos where my idea is for me to be your ‘eyes and ears’ on the ground.

I would be very grateful if you could 1: Please do let me know if you enjoy the videos and 2: If there is a specific news item you would like us to discuss, let me know by emailing me here.

Most of the news items you will see come from Costa Rica’s most influential and certainly the largest circulation Spanish language newspaper La Nación.
