You know how there are just those people who are "automatic friends"? Caro is one of those people in my life.
What is unique about our friendship is that it started through our jobs over Skype and email. Day in and day out we were in contact - problem solving, figuring out itineraries, and discussing our fun weekends. We also bonded over our hopeless love of chocolate cake.
Another unique characteristic of this friendship - Caro lives in San Jose, Costa Rica and I am a Montanan. We expected that our conversations would forever be typed.
However, I am glad our expectations were wrong. I was able to practice my SPOKEN Spanish with Caro this past October! My husband and I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Costa Rica, and we spent our last evening with my "automatic friend". We were hosted by Caro and her husband, Ale, in their San Jose home. Their sweet three-week-old daughter, Sofi, also made some appearances throughout the evening.
Costa Rica adventures (Jenny Johnston)
They SPOILED us with a meal of patacones con salsa, casado, chorreadas con natilla, empanadas, horchata, pejibaye, cas, guanabanas, torta chilena... Needless to say we were "llenos" at the end of the night. We left Costa Rica with satisfied appetites...as well as full hearts.
Jess was terrific and patiently guided us to make what we feel will be a wonderful family adventure.

Jessica was extremely helpful and generous with her time. She was very responsive to our questions and comments and in a very timely fashion. She worked with us in partnership to plan a trip specifically for us and our wants and needs.

Just as she did last time we booked with Adventure Life, Franny really listened to what we wanted for our trip and went the extra mile to help us build the perfect itinerary.

What made our Costa Rica experience great was the wonderful places we stayed and transportation to get to our different areas to visit was excellent! The white water rafting and the snorkeling & dolphin watching were really fun!
