Beach, great food and great drinks is amazing. That's what makes me love the Caribbean. Seems like Costa Rica also has a part which is similar to this, very nice! Kayaking and Zip-lining both are such adventurous activities, worth doing during your trip. I like to be active during my holidays. And those views and wildlife are amazing! I'm even more curious to Mexico. Have a great weekend! 🤙

@travelforphoebe 2 жыл бұрын

We visited in November and found the weather to be hot and humid, experiencing a mix of sunny and very rainy days. Typically, Costa Rica has a tropical climate all year round with only two seasons: summer and winter! The summer or dry season is December to April and the winter or rainy season is May to November. Our visit coincided with the rainy season but it didn’t dampen our spirits :) You can read more in our ultimate guide to Costa Rica on our blog: littlegreybox.net/2020/01/21/the-ultimate-costa-rica-travel-guide/

Hi Phoebe! I've been googling Costa Rica lately in anticipation of taking a trip there. Because of this, your vid came up in my news feed. I really enjoyed this video, especially your candid viewpoints on food and local attractions. I'd like to ask whether you had any difficulties communicating with the locals due to language differences, or whether most of them speak English. Again, thanks for the insight and I'll be checking out more of your videos...

@travelforphoebe 4 жыл бұрын

Hello! Oh wow, I'm so happy your research brought you here and that you enjoyed the video. You're going to have the BEST time in Costa Rica! We don't speak Spanish so I downloaded the Google Translate app to my phone and made sure I had the Spanish language downloaded within the app - for the most part, communicating with the locals was easy but there were definitely a few times when Google Translate saved the day! It works offline so you can type in what you're trying to say and it'll translate it - so easy! I wrote an 'Ultimate Guide to Costa Rica' for our website this week which might help you too: littlegreybox.net/2020/01/21/the-ultimate-costa-rica-travel-guide/ Again, thanks so much for watching and have the BEST time over there!

Hey Phoebe! Amazing video as always. On another note, how safe do you think CR is? As somebody had replied to my comment in your 2nd video about CR that it's not very safe. So I'd like to hear from you what your experience was like in CR in terms of how safe it is for tourists.

@travelforphoebe 4 жыл бұрын

Hello!! Oh, yes, I saw that comment too! All I can do is share our experience and we felt safe in Costa Rica. I think San Jose, as a built-up city with a lot of people who are trying to survive, there's more crime of opportunity. We heard stories of people being pickpocketed and having their backpacks stolen but Matt and I are very diligent and it didn't happen to us. We kept our bags to the front of our bodies in built-up areas, like San Jose and at public bus terminals etc. We watched our luggage closely and always watched each other's backs and we had no issues whatsoever. Once we got out of San Jose, we felt safe everywhere we went but still kept to our usual safety practices! Hope that helps :) I love your avi/profile pic by the way - so cute!!
