50 Comments

1. hi sir is right on t costa rica
   Customs form no longer a requirement for international arrivals from nick in the uk

2. Can you put on a dry shirt next time, your shirt grosses me out

3. God bless the Ticos Love Canada

4. the steering🚘 wheel is a possession. change the personality we think fast and furious😎😈

5. Taxes and service charges are added on your bill when eating out after the initial price

6. Obviously with Covid 19 nowhere is safe to travel right now but he goes on about how safe it is? My dreams of traveling there last year were literally crushed when my boyfriend informed me of this.
   – Canada  has issued “Safety and security” warning for travel to Costa Rica. The Advisory, issued on May 13, 2019, and still active today, is due to the increased potential for ‘crime’. “The rate of drug-related violent crimes, including homicides, is on the rise in Costa Rica. Drug trafficking is common.

   I wish we went anyways while we could honestly.

7. Slow down brother. You are speaking way to quickly. It’s Costa Rica, go slow.

8. Personally I loved getting fried plantains all the time!! Great food, cheap, and large amounts

9. The fruit in Costa Rica is sooo good! We’re getting addicted to rambutans. So delicious! 😋

10. So I’m heading to Arenal and Jaco literally a week from today. Does that mean the rain will be terrible?? I do live in Seattle, so I can handle some rain lol.

11. Clearly you’ve not been to the Tama area, and you were in Jaco, Arenal and Monteverde. The potholes here if you live here off the beaten tourist path you will take that back.

12. Opened this video and thought I heard Jack Black narrating it for a second

13. When they say Dry and Rainy season, you have to remember, its all relative, so Dry season just means it doesn’t rain as much, and Rainy season means it rains a lot… I know, I used to live there.

14. Great video. Thanks, I’m going in January 2020!!!

15. Thank you for the video. I wanted to go here. The nature and beaches are beautiful. It’s very green. I like the floor, flanna and fruit. I would like the friendly people.

16. You have never lied about the way Ticos drive. I love Costa Ricans in every other aspect, EXCEPT DRIVING! Pura vida!

17. I know you can’t say it because you would lose viewers, but I can…! NOT all Ticos are friendly. Any Tico in tourist business is not friendly at all. They can’t be! They look at tourists as "Walking Wallets". If you see someone in that regard, you cannot be nice to them. Adjust your expectations with the interactions you’ll have with different Ticos.

18. Gracias por tus palabras para con mi país 👍

19. The most beautiful is when it rainy

20. Thank you for all the nice comments, specially about ticos. We love nice people like you to enjoy and come back with friends. We do drive a bit crazy, people nowadays yield more when on heavy traffic gladly.

21. biggest shock for me; not being able to flush toilet paper haha

22. Good and informative video, thank you, but I wouldn’t say anything you said is particularly "shocking".

23. Thanks bra! (Dem potholes…whoah momma!)

24. The shocking thing about tourism in CR is; that Costa Rica´s nature is getting exploited by hotel companies from the US, besides that the funny thing is that we are going to say that Costa Rica sucks.

25. We were there in 2016. when we landed from Toronto,I had a huge sigh and said to my husband, I feel like I just came home. Going back for our 40th anniversary in September. Highly recommend this country. The ticos are beautiful!

26. Second thing..the directions in Costa Rica, like in Maine they say, oh no you cannot get there from here…lol

27. Also try guanabana or cas sherbets. They’re sort of sweet and sour if you like those flavors. I love them. Only ever saw guanabana in a yard in Hawaii before. Called soursop. You can have those flavors as a fruit drink "natural" when they are in season in many restaurants and informal restaurants called "sodas". Moved here in 1997. There are some bottled versions too but I don’t like those nearly as well.

28. Noted conservationist and Jane Goodall confidant for more than forty years, who has resided in rural Costa Rica since 1993, and is credited with being the "realtor" who put Arenal on the map, has just announce plans for his swan song . . . creating a modern, environmentally sound eco-town in an exciting area of wildlife and forests. Modeled on the world famous Monteverde example, new technology shall allow much greated use of alternative and sustainable energy and buildling methods.
    DO NOT DELAY, THE INITIAL OFFERING WILL BE OPEN TO A MAXIMUM OF 100 FAMILIES, THIS DREAM WILL NOT LAST.

39. Great video. I love all your videos. I’m Canadian so I noticed the Canada Dry at the cafe, ha ha!! I’m looking forward to visiting there someday. Looks so beautiful and gorgeous.

40. I was wondering as I started to watch the video, if I hadn’t seen you doing a similar for Stockholm/Sweden…
    Now I see a boy, your son maybe, with a yellowT-shirt saying Sverige/Sweden, so I think that you’re the one. I’m watching loads of videos because I’m planning my first ever trip to Costa Rica. Thank you for sharing your experiences!
    Lots of love from Sweden 💖🙋🇸🇪

41. The first thing that will shock you is it is beautiful, has beaches and jungle….wtf dude duh

42. Great video! I’m here now in Jaco .. leaving in a few days .. great Country and I’m sure I will be back !

44. I never thought about going to Costa Rica, but after seeing this video, I really want to visit now. I like friendly people, good food, and beautiful scenery.

45. oh lord i dont drive in my own country Colombia sound the same 😭

46. Very. nice. My family and I will have to travel there one day.

47. Sure doesn’t look like this Tosser has ever missed a meal in his life. And he’s making sure that his children will grow up to be just as obese as he is.

48. Le felicito no solo por sus exitos, sino por haber logrado una de las cosas mas dificiles del mundo y de la vida de un esposo y padre "una esposa feliz en casa" y en esta Costa Rica que ahora es su casa. Bienvenidos.
