Just met another Cuban in Alajuela at the gas station. I asked him how he was finding Costa Rica - and ofc the most Cuban answer… “estoy aquí en la lucha, ya tu sabe” 😂😂😂💀💀💀💀

At the in-laws

They cropped it too closely; surely Saprissa fans at that office

Noem, she got fired. Sick of seeing her at the TSA line

Does this mean we don’t have to look at Jigsaw lady’s face at the airport anymore?

Noooo!

12 year old insists on having his new national ID pic taken with his football club shirt on.

Many of you would do the same 😂

YES Escalante lmao!

Btw yesterday we were tryin to go to a yoga place, Waze didn’t work and I wound up having to knock on three doors trying to figure out which was “250 m Al este del farolito” 🫠

I used the term “el chante” the other day and just got laughed at. lol

Can’t wait until I get rid of my accent to the point that I stop getting compliments for how well I speak Spanish 🫠🥲

Ahhhhhh so amazing I am soooo excited for you!!!!

My fav celeb ad campaign I’ve seen so far in CR is Bad Bunny appearing on billboards for a brand of canned tuna

I literally screamed, “ANTEATER!!! 🫵”

Tbh it’s a wide range of ages who go to these things, very wide, but yeah I just didn’t feel like connecting hands and improvising a circle or a wave or whatever with a random man-bun

Contact improv - oops typo. Sigh, yes it’s a thing.

Some acquaintances had an ecstatic dance dj set tonight so I went and whatever, I like the opportunity to wave around weirdly but the entire time I kept having to stare at the ground to avoid ppl trying to contact improve dance with me lol

Disorder Follows Pop Concert By LARRY MAHONEY And RAY VILLWOCK Herald Staff Writers A pop music concert ended in disorder Saturday night in the Dinner Key Auditorium after the obscene gesture of the lead singer on stage touched off a wild fist-swinging brawl. An estimated 10,000 young people packed the auditorium to hear The Doors, a pop music group, and their lead singer, Jim Morrison, known as the king of "orgasmic" rock. THE CROWD was orderly until Morrison, a wiry 5-6 dressed in leather pants and slouch hat, appeared and began to whip the crowd up with obscenities and calls for the crowd to come up on stage and join him. The concert ended when several officers of Thee Image, sponsors of the concert, went up on stage to drag Morrison off after the young musician began making obscene gestures. Morrison began fighting with the officers, physically throwing three of them off the stage and into the crowd. About 40 to 60 young people then surged up on stage and shoving and fist fights ensued.

On March 1, 1969, Jim Morrison of The Doors is arrested on stage in Miami at the old Dinner Key Auditorium after allegedly exposing himself to the audience.

I wrote to a Cuban friend in Dubai just to check in because I’m super behind on the news and he gave me theeee most Cuban response

Ikr I went to look at a farm for sale, I’ll report back

I really feel like I have not made enough of a point that I saw a sliver of a humpback whale from the beach. I don’t think I truly believed they were real 😭

It’s birder heaven and I was only out for a day so, I bet there’s a lot more if you spend more time

I just caught up with world news when I got into the still-remote town of Puerto Jimenez, CR and uh…. I think I’ll just stay here

I’m a dork and made a full list of my Pokémon tally for the day - if you come to Costa Rica you must come to the Osa peninsula!!!

I keep trying to post a video of this small wild anteater I saw crossing the road earlier 🥹 did it work this time

Driving! The entrances are limited now for capacity so this is the one we could swing this trip :)

I can’t believe it, look at this wild anteater casually crossing the road 😭😭

I’ve only been out here an hour and a half look at this 😭😭😭😭

It’s worth it sometimes

Sooo excited, today finally visiting Parque Nacional Corcovado in Costa Rica, which I’ve been trying to do for like two years only to be foiled a few times… it’s very far from everything, and you have to enter with a guide.

I found a guide on instagram! There are wild tapirs here. Fingers crossed 🤞
