Where to live in Costa Rica?

I am looking to spend about three months (due to 90 day visa) stay in Costa Rica, ideally I would stay near a beach and take scuba lessons. The purpose is to improve my spanish and get a little relaxation after a rough 3 years. I will be going around the beginning of September and staying until December. I am an intermediate Spanish speaker but would like to move to advanced and/or fluent speaker. I am a single female of 32 and looking for some place safe, friendly, and interesting. My current budget is about $3,000 USD after airfare. I am willing to live some place other than a beach area if necessary (last resort). I need specific towns and areas as I am not yet familiar with Costa Rica. Thank you.

stay off the Pacific Coast if you don't like the tourist trap type places. That is not the real Costa Rica. The Pacific coast is beautiful but way too westernized. The Caribbean coast is much more laid back. Head down to the southern part of the coast. Puerto Viejo. Stay at Rocking J's Hostel. He's a good friend of mine. His hostel is also a Lonely Planet's guide top pick. Very friendly and laid back atmosphere. And if you're looking some scuba action, Punta Uva just down the road is a great place. J's can hook you up with any sort of adventure you want. I'm telling you, Puerto Viejo is the place to be. Cheap, laid back afro-caribbean vibe, great food, friendly people, beautiful beaches, no major tourist traps. It's heaven on earth. I travel there quite often as some friends and I run a non profit conservation group down there.
Good Luck and Pura Vida!

Mexico Homes; Life in La Paz, Much More than Just a House

Americans and Canadians thinking of buying a Mexico home in the Pacific coast area have several excellent options in areas with a good deal of activities to enjoy as a part of day to day life. Among them, La Paz on the Baja California peninsula presents an solid combination of excellent real estate, warm weather and lifestyle to match the relaxing culture of the area.

 

La Paz real estate offers homes ranging from less than $70,000 USD for a simple, but comfortable home, slightly back from the beach, but still very near to conveniences, up to $500,000 for something in a more up-scale neighborhood next to the beachfront, and anywhere upwards from there depending on the amount of luxury, the view, etc. Good properties can be found in La Paz for just about any budget, all offering the relaxing lifestyle and convenience the city is famous for.

 

The lifestyle here is defined by many options for involvement in the community, as well as many events, activities, attractions and places to visit. One way in which expats enjoy being in contact with the local culture is through the purchase of local handicrafts. Many traditional artists sell their work in various locations in the city, including markets, shops and little booths.

 

A recent program has promoted the production of traditional handicrafts using both natural and recycled materials, with the objective to transmit these century-old skills to new generations. Such programs give the expat population the benefit of having access to real, authentic work from the area, and not just the generic sort of crafts sold in every tourist destination. Buying these kinds of crafts is the strongest support which can be shown for the traditions.

Another way in which expats can get involved is through sports clubs. Recently, the Baja California cycling organization made an effort to reorganize itself in order to better promote the activity as an official sport in the state. Of course, it's not at all necessary to join an organization to enjoy cycling in La Paz, and, with many great places to enjoy cycling, the activity provides and ideal way to enjoy the area's diverse natural beauty.

 

Other activities range from scuba diving, to golfing or sailing; many organizations also provide more official ways of getting involved. Once you've found the ideal spot for your new home in La Paz, you can decide how much, and in what way you want to be involved; just as with the homes you can choose from, there are many options.
