Living in Nature

Jungle, Sea, and a Balanced Life

Although we live in the jungle, our village center is only 5 km in a straight line from the Caribbean coast, and it's 11 km by road to the nearest beaches in Puerto Viejo. It goes without saying that this provides a very nice balance for our lives. Camping is allowed on most beaches in Costa Rica, an added benefit. As for living in the jungle, it's an incredible ecosystem with which to interact on a daily basis. The calls of an amazing assortment of birds is a constant reminder of the nature that surrounds. Noise from the occasional motorcycle or vehicle is very minimal and distant. For many of us, feelings of gratitude for the environment we live in is a common occurrence.
