Great Introduction to Living in Costa Rica!
Erin has no real estate sales to push and does not lead retirement tours, so she can tell it like it is. As the author of a travel guidebook to Costa Rica (Explore Costa Rica, Fifth Edition), I know many of the people Erin interviewed for her book. And she does. Erin has obviously done her homework, and it shows! This is required background reading for anyone contemplating moving to Costa Rica. (And it is useful for short-term visitors as well).

lots of info, great book
There are some good points to help you consider both the good and bad things to expect with your upcomming move. Pleanty of information with lots of government web site addresses and phone numbers. .

Easy to read and very entertaining


This book is an easy read, and very entertaining. In short, if you are thinking of moving or retiring to Costa Rica, this book is a great place to start whether you have been to Costa Rica before, or know nothing at all. I am not one to read an entire work in a few sittings, but before I knew it I had devoured this book. If you are interested in living in or visiting Costa Rica, this is a must read.

I have been to Costa Rica several times, and besides being an easy read and an entertaining escape, the information is accurate at the time of writing.

The best thing that I liked about the book besides the great information is that it does what a book is supposed to do. . . Take you away from whatever is going on in the world while you are reading it and transport you somewhere else, in this case Costa Rica.

I have shared this book with a number of friends, and they all say the same thing, the book is an easy read, informative, entertaining. I have studied a great deal about Costa Rica, and this book highlights all the important information that I have found in numerous other disparate sources. In short, a great one stop shop for useful information on living in Costa Rica.

I have examined numerous travel books on Costa Rica, but this one ranks the highest of what I have found so far.
