Holy moly guys, nothing will ever be the same for me. This place changed me and showed me so much. I know now that Í´m a citizen of the world, not only the country I was born in. We spent a while talking to a really cool guy in Montezuma who has travelled tons. We discussed the differences between travellers and touristsm something that has come to my attention very strongly while here. He was saying how cool people from Oregon are, and how their attitude is similar to the Costa Ricans. It was so cool to be able to connect with this guy and learn together in the middle of the street at night.
I took a surfing lesson!!!! I´d been talking about it at every beach we went to and just couldn´t get up the courage to make it apriority and just do it! While in Malpais we splurged and spent our two allotted nights at a nice hotel(you´ll just have to wait and see pictures, no time to explain). The bartenders were really super nice, so we asked the one who was working our first night there if he surfed(of course he did, practically everyone there does) and if he wanted to give me a lesson. He was super great about it, and the next day I was out on the ocean with him! He was the perfect teacher, super laid back, patient and helpful. I was nervous about looking stupid, and then I got to beach with him and everything melted away, it was amazing!! Crap, breakfast is calling, see you guys tomorrow! love love love
Ok, a few more notes after breakfast..... Maleea totally had it right when she told me to remember everything around me, because Costa Rica would be in my heart forever. Yep. I think its kinda like your first love. I´ve never had one in the form of a person, but I´m certainly smitten with Costa Rica.
You all should be glad we´re coming home though. The three of us were getting crazier and stupider by the day. I think we wouldve lost ourselves completely in only a few more days. HoORy for sanity.
