Good afternoon. I am new to this place. I found ya'll while trying to locate some expat's that I could communicate with to learn about living out side the us.
I currently live in Tampa Florida, USA and can retire in about 5 years. So I am just loking around, seeing what is out there so to speak. I have some time to make plans, maybe even find a place and then get it done.
I will be in that part of the world next Jan, my friend has a place in the general area.

so Hello

I would like to set up a conversation with a person/persons that are currently living in Costa Rica to get a feel for the place. To enable me to ask questions like roads, shopping, banking and vet services.. Anyone like to take me up on this?

Hello John, are you planning to move in Costa Rica in near future?

I am looking that way. I have a few years to come up with a plan. I will be in that part of the world early next year with a friend who has a condo in Nicaragua. I have been "overseas" a lot when younger and am ok with that and I like that plan of being able to live in a warm place, salt water and mountains.
Costa Rica seems, at this time, a good place to start looking.

I have not been there yet. Hopefully soon. I assume that you have by your comment so where is a good place to go for a few days to "look around"?
