I’m from Costa Rica, my favorite thing to do is traveling and getting to know new places and new people. I am a vegetarian, love running and dancing. I love animals and have actually volunteered for some animal rescuing organizations in CR. I usually travel with friends or family, but sometimes travel alone too. When traveling by myself, I like making new friends, go for a cup of coffee or a movie with someone from the city I am visiting

Hello! I’m 18 years old and I live in Milan. If I have to described me with few words I surely say cheerful, funny and straightforward. I’m a really determined person and I can adapt to everything! The people who know me best could define me as a non-sporty girl but they wouldn't say I'm a lazy one either. In fact, I'm sportive when I really like the activity I'm doing, otherwise, I can't truly appreciate it. Sometimes I must stay alone but, at the same time, I need to stay with my friends hanging out and laugh with them. I'm generally friendly and curios, for this reason in this my experience I would like to meet new different people and new places. I love talking with people and try to help them, if this happens my sweetness, one of my best qualities, comes out and you can be sure I will always be next to you for every problem and difficulties. I'm always been impressed by art. Every type of it. I'm sure this thing came from my mother and her artistic bent. Unfortunately, I haven't brought from her the skill to can draw and paint, but certainly, I've learned the freedom to be whatever I want. I love travelling and take pictures, I always bring with me my camera. I enjoy adventures and the simplicity. Low cost travel, rich in emotions :)

Hi everybody, I am planning a backpacking trip through South America. I will start in August 2024 and would like to meet other nature and culture connected people who want to start the tour with me. I am already a year earlier in Paraguay and participate in a research project on biodiversity in the rainforest. If you also want to discover this incredible continent I would be happy to establish contact and possibly then do something together in South America.

Experiences from Costa Rica

I spent two weeks in Costa Rica, a stunning country that is easy and safe to explore by public transportation and shared minibuses (to save time). The people we encountered were very friendly. I didn't travel alone, but I don't think that would be a problem.
La Fortuna was one of my favorite spots in Costa Rica. I stayed at a hostel and always felt safe. The bus system was very cheap and fairly easy to use. Had so much fun.
The country was just breathtaking. Places I loved the most: Puerto Viejo, Monteverde, la fortuna, Santa Fe, Tamarindo. Most people can speak English, but some basic Spanish is never wrong. I stayed in hostels and found them through Hostelworld.
