Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica
This town is pretty great, I must say. Super chill and sun-drenched (for the most part). My time up in the jungle just outside of town was blissful, and my time here in town has been one long beachy dream. Ahhh...contentment.
 |
| Beach day number 1. Got a bit of a burn but it was worth it and the water was perfecto! |
 |
| A little road just next to the entrance to Samasati. Not sure what these guys were up to down there, just chatting I guess, but I thought they looked pretty iconic. |
 |
| Beach number 2. I don't remember the names of any of the beaches, unfortunately. |
 |
| The yoga studio at Samasati. Surrounded by jungle and jungle noises. I guess I should have taken more photos of the retreat center. I guess you can check it out here. Thanks, internet! |
 |
| A fruit truck in town. I didn't buy anything and at first the guy was sort of annoyed. Then he told me he wanted to take me home and I walked away. Hmmm. |
 |
| This sign on the main drag of Puerto Viejo is still a mystery to me. Luckily, I have not been bitten by a worm yet. |
 |
| The beach right by town. There's a cool barge here with trees growing on it. |
 |
| A view of town from up in the cemetery (which you'll see pictured on the outings & activities page). |
 |
| Are you sick of beach pictures yet? |
 |
| The main area at Hostel Pagalu (which is lovely and cheap). Usually it's filled with European & North American tourists cooking and playing cards and drinking. I am generally an anti-social weirdo on my computer in the corner. Just a side note re. hostels...not sure if I hate them or not. Last night I had the pleasure of waking up to two people doing it in a nearby bunk (perhaps a product of the co-ed rooms here). Gross. |
 |
| And one last beach photo. Pretty sunset! |
