Hola! This time we are going to Tiquicia in Escazú. It is a beautiful restaurant on the top of the mountain that serves typical Costa Rican food and has a really amazing presentation on Costa Rican dances. The only problem is that it’s only open the first Friday night of the month. 🙁 We had to drive almost an hour to get to it. Tito was like a ninja driving through the streets around cars, trees, people. I think that I’m going to ask him to teach me how to drive.

I had an awesome time! I love casados, so I was literally in heaven when they showed me the buffet style serving system. Ah! The two foods I love the most are casados and arroz con pollo! The dancing was pretrial too. I’m jealous that people can move their feet so quickly! There was one guy, the one who is whistling really loudly in the video, that cracked me up because he was so enthusiastic. 🙂 I’m really sad that I didn’t get more videos, but I hope you guys enjoy it. 🙂

¡Pure Vida from Costa Rica!

Hi, everyone! I'm a 20-year-old senior majoring in Sociology and minoring in Psychology and Spanish. I'm originally from Puyallup, WA, but I've lived in six states since then with my six brothers and sisters. Visiting Costa Rica will be my first time leaving the country, but I hope it will be a precursor for future traveling adventures!
