10 things I learned by visiting Costa Rica
- Hanging things on a clothes line is not for drying them; it’s for conducting mildew and mold growing experiments.
- Wearing seat belts while driving on rough gravel roads can cause more injury than not wearing them.
- Too warm? Underwear is optional.
- Stop signs are for aesthetic purposes only. Who doesn’t love a splash of red?
- Being driven through heavily trafficked areas by a native driver is as exciting as any ride at Great America.
- It’s not bugs crawling on you, it’s just sweat dripping on your skin.
- I lied. It’s probably bugs crawling on you.
- Dead Toucans sometimes drop from the sky. Seriously, I have a picture of one.
- Toucans are assholes. At least according to a German massage therapist specializing in foot reflexology.
- Costa Rica is an amazing and beautiful country with the highest concentration of wildlife I’ve ever seen. You should go!
