@inivin57 I tried with both, first myself (I speak a decent Spanish) and then wirh the crooked lawyer. Nope. They sent me the law that is so vague (like the most of their "pura vida" laws) that they can easily interpret it against us, golden geese. ... Read More

@Schempf I also made attempts with no success. Lawyers either refuse (honest ones) or take money and do nothing (normal here crooks). We are being robbed paying for something we have nothing to do with. This is "pura vida". The payments depend on ... Read More

@edwinemora yes, my personal experience with traffic accident, service (or rather anti service), and even much worse. The typical characteristics are total lack of respect to each other, pseudo respect to the paying gringo and hypocrisy. Yet, I am ... Read More

@tjuckufarley instead of wasting your and other's time, buddy, with these self-admiring posts, just take a risk, come and fight to survive. Even if you fail..youll still succeed with rich experience. This site isn't a place to get one. This writes ... Read More

Solar energy - panels by Dominique Schreiber
Hello everyone, I just bought a little traditional house in Sámara, Guanacaste, and would like to have feedbacks from expats using solar panels or having considered using them as energy source, before deciding whether or not installing them. ...
@edwinemora yes, this is a local typical mentality (let's call it culture) to stick their nose in the personal life of others. This is why we stay away from both, ticos and also gringos. My girlfriend is especially sensitive to that. Our time is ... Read More

@edwinemora Outlier has just finished my residency before going bankrupt. The others turned out their prey. They used to be very good, although expensive. A person can do that himself if they are in CR. From abroad it is complicated. Read More

@edwinemora Agree. I discarded all social contacts for this very reason. People can't handle the functions of their own mind, mine is my companion, as thoughts are observed and controlled. Hatred, envy, arrogance, refusal to accept things, which ... Read More

@rainagain Two people can live for $1000 a month assuming they have no vehicle and don't go out to eat the local garbage food. Then you are ok. I buy fish, milk, cheese from locals. I begin to grow myself at the new property. My tica girlfriend is a ... Read More
