It’s been a month since I’ve been living in Jaco Beach, Costa Rica and wanted to write a nice long update about my adventures so far. But with so much footage and video work I’ve been doing lately, I thought it would be a better idea to complement my thoughts with visuals so you can see for yourself the beauty that is Costa Rica. In my pursuit of happiness, this is my journey to pura vida. Enjoy!

Great video blog! Incredible. Costa Rica seems wonderful. I managed to backpack through Panama a couple years ago and I would love to check out Costa Rica!!

Great video blog post, Angie! Your travel experiences inspire me to do something similar sometime in the near future.

Hey! I’m up in Toronto right now building websites and racing around in the Toronto commerce scene (freelance though)… pretty awesome to see that you’ve taken a shot at going off and chasing a dream. Great stuff!

Thanks for the update Angie … and thanks for inspiring the rest of us … even if we don’t have the guts to make the move ourselves.
