The Concept of 'Time' Seems to be Different Here in Costa Rica. .
Alarm clocks and calendars. . both necessary items for most people in 2022. We are guided by seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years. Our future plans are laid out in a fashion that have been with all of us for hundreds of years! Even before the adjustable alarm clock was invented in 1847, we all still, as a society, relied on natural ways to plan our days, weeks and months ahead. Whether we measured time by the rising of the sun, the phases of the moon and / or the alignment of the stars and planets above, knowing where you were in the entire realm of life was so very important and necessary. Julius Caesar even used a calendar that guided him and the masses for many years.

Once a Month. . like CLOCKWORK. . a 4-day Getaway that Makes the Time Go Faster for Tom & Teri! Both of these fine folks are in love with their jobs. They work hard and they play hard. Slowly and methodically, they are transitioning into remote positions with their global employer and are so very excited about the future opportunity to actually WORK REMOTELY from COSTA RICA! Wow, how nice would that be? Now the bad news is that it's going to take about another year or so to accomplish this. The good news is that until then, they have carved out a monthly getaway for themselves and that is not hard to take. Time flies and every first weekend of the month, they hop onto a 2-hour-45-minute flight from Miami, Florida to the Juan Santamaria International Airport, just north of San Jose! Every month, they stay in a new hotel and kick back, dreaming about the day when all this will be PERMANENT! They're scoping out some smaller towns between San Jose and the Central Pacific Coastal area. . Atenas, Ciudad Colon, Santa Ana, Orotina, San Mateo. . so many choices in which to live and work.
