I like Mónica's. Mónica's is not overpriced!

Nah. Clap needs a mucus membrane to survive. Now, you can get herpes or warts in your pubic area having sex with a condom, especially if she is on top and grinding.

Yeah, that is kind of the problem with Costa Rica right now. Overpriced, overcrowded, too many rules, definitely a lot like Disneyland. Excellent analogy!

You can't look at inflation figures based on colones and then compare them to prices in US dollars without looking at the exchange rate. Fifteen years ago it was 300 and something to 1. Now it is 500...

I do recommend Monteverde. It p!ssed down rain the whole time and was still a lot of fun. I mean, it is a cloud forest so the rain was pretty much a given. I think it is one of the rainiest places in...

The most beautiful place I have been in Costa Rica is Rincón de la Vieja, a national park near Liberia, where Guanacaste and Alajuela provinces come together. It is probably one of the 5 most...

Good to know. Now if they would do something about the heat and crime and stop talking funny, I might consider it.

Plus you need to apply for a visa, if you are a citizen of the Divided States. An additional hassle as compared to CR or Colombia.

I lived on that exact block for four months and can also confirm. Calle 3 A between Avenidas 9 and 7. I miss that apartment. Full size washer and dryer and hot water everywhere. Haven't had all that...

You did the exact correct thing but I would add that I always make paying at the end part of the initial negotiation. Yo pago después y punto. You don't like it, NEXT PLEASE!

ATM would be the best, depending on what your bank charges you. I was there for four months once and I never changed any money (although my landlord was a gringo and I was paying rent in dollars).

Well, they do have a female president who is quite far to the left and a strong 'feminist. ' Then there was the Cuba Dave fiasco, as you mention, which attracted a lot of unwanted attention. Costa...

Put me down as a 'no' vote on that one. SJ would be much better without the HDR and with all those chicas dispersed throughout other venues. And more of the dominicanas would leave, which would be...

'Nature wise, nothing that is not present in many other countries. '.

Go to Rincón de la Vieja and then tell me that. And did you go to the cloud forest?

And what if you end up with a nica instead of a tica?

The prices at Mónica's are for full service. ¡Qué ganga!

Agencies are not legal in CR. You will not find too many women who will think too much of the idea of going someplace for a week with someone they don't know. Also, have you ever considered what you...

I agree with most of what Johnny says although I seem to have relatively better luck than he does in the pensiones and relatively worse luck in Key Largo. I'd add Bar Poá and Bar Málibu to the list...

An excellent description of the difference between the two venues. I would add, however, that one can develop relationships with the gals in the pensiones over time. That usually requires living...

Yeah, PTY is way, way more expensive than the rest of Panamá. However, there is a Hard Rock Café in San José. It's in or near the Wyndham Hotel.

Well, I certainly have been to many countries with way, way more obvious poverty than CR, which has one of the highest per capita incomes in all of Latin America. Although, Panamá does have a higher...

Not a beach guy. Don't like heat, pigmentationally challenged, ancestors trotted out of the dark peat bogs of Ireland, never been to Jaco. I was in Quepos and it about killed me. You do know that is...

Having lived in both countries, I find Costa Rica superior for both mongering and non-mongering pursuits. You have considerably more venues to choose from in San José than you do in PC, and that's...

Avoid those rooms not only because of noise from the bar, but noises you might be making, and general privacy issues. Strictly for rookies and nose pickers. If those are the only rooms available,...
