Costa Rica: Land of Jungle, Animals and Beaches

I travelled in Costa Rica together with my great friends Nico and Muriel. We had an action-packed trip: jungle exploration, hiking the highest peak in the country (Cerro Chirripo), ziplining, snorkelling and of course relaxing at the beautiful beaches. 

Costa Rica will remain fondly in my memory for one particular reason: I loved to see the jungle animals in their natural habitat. Manuel Antonio and Corcovado National Parks were the places where we had the most success with this.

Due to popular demand -ahem- I've decided to re-start the blog. I'll try my best to keep it up. Thanks for taking the time to check in occasionally and leave comments!

After working 3 months in Switzerland from August - October 2014, I decided to head to Latin America. First to Costa Rica and Panama together with two friends, and then alone by bike through South America. 

With a few basics of Spanish, a big box with my bike in it and my luggage, I was ready to go. On 24 November, I departed Switzerland bound for San Jose in Costa Rica.
