In the spring when I was considering Plan Bs, I happened upon an advertisement for a volunteer opportunity in Costa Rica. Long on my bucket list of places to explore as a US retirement haven, this gig pays no cash, but provides room, board, transportation, laundry services, and I would be teaching professional adults who need English to improve their careers. What's not to love?
A short term gig - 4-6 months - it gives me the opportunity to explore Costa Rica and perhaps explore some medical tourism! Plus, I expect a Christmas break that is the polar opposite of my 2018 trip to Krakow and Aushwitz. 85F and sunny beaches, here I come!
After contacting the school, going through the interview process, and being accepted, I'm now making plans to fly to San Jose, Costa Rica.
Once again, we’ll pop over to Just A Quick Detour for my adventures in the jungle paradise of Costa Rica.
See you there!
