I highly recommend this tour for the decision making process
In planning a possible move to Costa Rica as a retiree, I wanted to get the full picture and create a sequential checklist of what to do before making the big decision. The Christopher Howard Live in Costa Rica Combination Tour was definitely the best choice to help me, especially with the needed two-day seminar included. Then his book The New Golden Door to Retirement and Living in Costa Rica was the best source to answer just about any question I had along the way. I also recommend a membership in ARCR, Association of Residents of Costa Rica, who have helped me every step of the way. Christopher also introduces you to this helpful organization.
The combo tour helped us compare lifestyles and housing on the Pacific Coast with those in the Central Valley, meet settled expats, see and compare shopping possibilities from a Farmers’ Market to a Walmart, and sample the culture. Plus we had excellent meals at every location! It is okay if the tour helps you decide not to move, as happened with a few – making an informed decision is the purpose of this tour! Now, I’ve decided I’m headed for a simpler life in Costa Rica soon! I’ve blogged about the decision along the way at Moving to Costa Rica. If seeing how someone else did it will help you make your decision, read my blog and add your comments or just email me.
