Scuba Diving – Our best locations so far…

It’s also a lot cheaper and you’ll find a lot more life under the sea; maybe even a mermaid or two” With 28 dives in five different countries under our belt we have developed a new obsession with being under water.

King of the road
On the way back from our bike ride from Puerto Viejo to Manzanillo we found a sloth trying to cross the road, with her baby on her back. As cars whizz down this road, we did the ‘noble’ thing (geddit?!) and held up the traffic so they could cross. They were so cute, and her [...]
