Pura Vida by Jared Higgs


Pura Vida…not just a Costa Rican salutation, but a way of life. Costa Rica was an unbelievable experience! From living with “ticos” (Costa Ricans), to playing soccer against them, every moment was vale la pena (worthwhile).


A highlight of the trip was the zip line canopy tour where I glided hundreds of feet over the river and rainforest. Also, volunteering to teach the “ticos” English was both beneficial, and rewarding.


I haven’t even begun to describe what I did in Costa Rica, and yet I am sure that you can tell that it was the trip of a lifetime. ¡Pura Vida!
