Costa T-1

Posted by JD 03/21/2008 at 08:12

Today is the day before I leave for Costa Rica to learn Spanish in an intensive way. I’ll be living with 2 families, 1 each week I’m there. Neither them, nor I know anything about each other yet.

Overall plan goes like this.

Week 1

  1. Arrive Saturday (Holy Saturday), transfer to a B&B outside San Jose
  2. Sunday morning, get introduced to the first family I’ll be staying with outside San Jose
  3. Monday morning, go to school, culture shock, figure out what the plans are for the rest of the week
  4. Tuesday – go to school; afternoon, do a half day tour of something
  5. Wednesday – go to school
  6. Thursday – go to school; afternoon tour
  7. Friday – go to school
  8. Saturday – head out on a 2 day adventure

Week 2

  1. Sunday – return and transfer to Monteverde family
  2. Monday morning, go to school, culture shock, figure out what the plans are for the rest of the week
  3. Tuesday – go to school; afternoon, do a half day tour of something
  4. Wednesday – go to school
  5. Thursday – go to school; afternoon tour
  6. Friday – go to school; afternoon tour
  7. Saturday – Transfer back to San Jose, then to the airport for a flight home.

Since this is more of a culture tour than see this tour, I don’t expect to have nearly as many photos as prior trips, nor do I expect to be able to upload that quantity with the internet connection available. I’m not taking a laptop, so my N800 will have to do.

We’ll see.
