Why I Created This Blog

¡Hola, Bienvenidos a todos!

I am in my fourth year of school majoring in Education and Spanish. I'm from Minnesota and am about to embark on a life changing experience, immersing myself in the language, culture, and pura vida of Costa Rica!

My ultimate goal of going to Costa Rica is to become fluent in speaking Spanish. But along the way, I am going to be visiting a very close friend from high school, experiencing Costa Rican Independence Day and Christmas, traveling to three countries and living on the beach. Oh, and I am taking classes in a university in the capital city, but it goes without debate, most of my learning will be experienced when I am not in a classroom but around the friendly Ticos (name Costa Rican's call themselves) and being out on adventures.

If you're reading this, I miss you, so do your best to let me know what you're up to! And I'll do my best filling you in on my adventures :)

The Magic Sofa Won. This Time.

Tammy and her family have been claiming magical powers over their couches, which Tammy purchased at a local thrift store. They say these couches are so magical, they make everyone who lays down in them fall asleep within minutes. "Skeptical", I said, "Let's test those magical powers." I said. And every night preceding this one, I sat in those couches and refused to fall asleep. Until....ladies and gentlemen. I woke up tonight. 12:56 AM here, no idea where I was. I wasn't in a bed! It was the magic couch. Magic couch-1. Rachel- 0.
