Hello everyone! Brenda and I just want to give a short update on where we are and what’s been going on the last four months. But first, we want to wish everyone a belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We missed being with family and friends for the holiday season. It certainly was […]
Last year, Brenda and I decided to give it one more try in regard to finding a place in Costa Rica to call home for a while. It’s odd deciding to move to a different country yet not knowing where you will live. Our dilemma has been that we’ve enjoyed every place, but we were […]
