    There are many private schools around the country and public schools are availabe for fluent Spanish speakers. It all depends on where the region you are looking at. Share what areas you are interested in and I can give you my recommendations.

    I wrote this article and it can give you a bit of an overview, yet with a focus in Guanacaste.

                      Hi Jennifer,
                      It's German Camargo, a subscriber of International Living. Unfortunately, I cannot find on this invitation any such thing as a video player. Could you please providen more details of the exact location of such video player on our PC screens? What type of icon should we look for? It would be more advisable to be able to click on a link that brings customers to today's workshop presentation. Thanks!

                        would you touch base on volcanic activity in this region and frequency?

                        A few years ago, there was a lot of volcanic activity in the Central Valley. My friends that have respiratory issues had problems during that time. Where I am in Guanacaste, the closest volcano is 100 km from me. We haven't had any issues. Yet we do feel earthquakes often.

                        I will talk with some friends and learn more about the volcanic activity the expereince in the Central Valley and share more about this at the conference in May-- and will post about it on the IL Costa Rica Community page too.

                              Thanks for the excellent info on Costa Rica! Can you share any details on water quality? Is it safe to drink? And how is wastewater handled? One other question...what about any wildlife hazards like poisonous snakes, spders, etc?

                              Thanks,

                              David

                                          Hi everyone – Jennifer Stevens here.

                                          I noticed there’s been a bit of confusion about today’s workshop, so I wanted to clear things up.

                                          You can join the workshop right here on this page. At the top, you’ll see a video player—that’s where the broadcast will begin at 11 AM ET.

                                          You do not need a separate link, and there’s no need to log into Zoom. The presentation will take place directly on this page.

                                          If you can’t make it live, don’t worry—a recording will be posted here shortly after the workshop ends.

                                          Hope this clears things up!

                                          IMPORTANT: Please send your Costa Rica questions for JMA in on this page.
