Pura Vida


So its been just about three months since Dustin and I arrived to paradise and we're hangin in there just fine. I was working in a spa that was a few beaches south of Flamingo, where we live, but the commute was killer....most un-pura vida. Now I'm massaging at our local "Jungle Gym" and traveling up the "hill" where the rich people live! I love it, when I work, but some weeks are very very very slow. The good news is that I'm trying to spend my extra time training to become a yoga intructor; I'm following in a very wise woman's foot steps! I'll practice as much as I can and then travel somewhere with central america for certification with in the next year or so!
Dustin is having great success teaching/tutoring English. Originally he was working with a school, CPI, but has recently decided to pursue tutoring on his own, mainly because he's working too many hours and not watching enough sunsets! At the moment, Dustin is working on a proposal to design and instruct a English program for a residential/developement company! Keep your fingers crossed.
We've had a few visitors and seem to always have somewhere or something to do each weekend. This weekend we're having a private surf-camp with our friend, Olivia, and I hope to God we actually stand up this time :) Don't get me wrong, sometimes its hard to be outside our comfort zones; learning a new language, not having a car, missing our dear friends and families, but thats what the two of us are all about...pushing our limits. And we support each other through each step.! PURA VIDA
