I had a similar experience but I slummed it in hostels and on bikes, so it would probably be better in nicer accomidations on the north shore. on my taxi ride to the initial hotel I saw 2 dead bodies on the street from (I'm assuming) traffic accidents, and I almost got mugged twice. Got arrested once (but that was my bad, smoking weed) but let go when they saw I was broke, and I sweated so hard every day I got heat rash all in my business and had to buy fucking diaper cream, which sucked to explain to the grocery people in broken spanish/English. I was in Puerto Viejo on the Caribbean side. The 4-5 hour bus ride to get there was scary as fuck too.

I was a 21 year old skinny white guy traveling alone too though, which isnt the safest either. I would like to re-try maybe

so you went with no money to a place where you don't speak the language, stayed on the cheapest allocations, broke the rules and you still bitch about it?

I think at every step in my post I pointed out my flaws. I realize I did it poorly, but I didn't have no money. I just didn't have a lot of money. I said that I should retry it

Bitch, stop lying for karma. I have lived 23 years in CR and NEVER have I seen dead bodies laying around. Only time I saw that, was in 2018 at San Fransisco. A man had OD'd on the street walk. Costa Rica? Never

>Got arrested once

You sound like a veeerryyy nice person

I dont know what you want me to tell you man, they were like a block apart and it looked like someone was driving and like clipped the sidewalk or something. Maybe they were drunk, who knows. It had like just happened.

And I'm not a bad person I was just young and smoking weed on a beach. I think that's actually pretty morally neutral.
