Changing One's Life & Crossing Over to the "Pura Vida" Lifestyle
Sitting here pre-dawn. . early Monday morn. . a time that all should experience. . that oh-so-pleasant aroma of Costa Rican coffee being brought to life for me to enjoy. . a wonderful time of day. And a time I look forward to so much. . each and every day. . not just Mondays! Being here in Costa Rica surely does make that coffee taste so much better than what it used to!
William "Skip" LichtPublished 4 years ago in WanderPuerto Rico: Like Summer All Year Round in the Middle of the Sea
Puerto Rico, Isla del Encanto! Puerto Rico is a small island in the Caribbean sea. It is the perfect place to visit all year round because of its tropical weather ranging anywhere from the low 70s to the high 80s, even during the winter! It’s like summer all year round in the middle of the sea!
Debbie CentenoPublished 4 years ago in WanderAn indulgent sanctuary from Caribbean storms
At last years #TeamCoco retreat, we all wrote down our career and travel wishes for 2018. Some of us wished for Safari, some of us wished for private Beaches, but our girl Jenna wished to tick the Caribbean off her extensive bucket list. Luckily for her, the opportunity came up for an extravagant long weekend in St Lucia where she was more than qualified for the job…

Christy WatsonPublished 4 years ago in WanderTravel to: Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic
There are so many things to do and see when traveling to the Dominican Republic. It's a country with such a vibrant personality and a rich (yet turbulent) history. Many people visit the resorts and beach towns like Punta Cana or Jarabacoa, and while these are marvels of crystal water and ivory sand, fewer folks take the time to visit the capital city of Santo Domingo.
It's Better in The Bahamas
It’s Better in The Bahamas Imagine this, white picturesque sandy beaches, seven hundred stunning subtropical islands, fathomless ocean trenches and an ever-present golden sun. This ideal Caribbean beauty is in the North-western West Indies just below the coast of Florida. The Commonwealth of The Bahamas is home to not only 380,000 locals but the birthplace of fun in the sun, sand, and sea. As a tourist, you peer out the window and see the varying hues of blue in the Atlantic Ocean. The plane descends, and you feel the soft embrace of the sun's warm rays. As a first-time tourist, you do not know what to expect. Covering the newly built area of the airport are images of turtles, dolphins, and seashells. They are all glimpses of the tropical way of life before you have truly seen the island beyond four walls. A traditionally clothed policeman statue points you in the direction you need to go. The infectious beat of a goat-skinned drum rattles your bones the further you go.

Living on a tropical island changes your perspective towards nature. On an island that relationship to Mother Nature is much more intimate and vital because it rules so much of your everyday life. The ocean is the barometer that sets the tone for everyone on the island. If the waters are calm, the island is safe, but when those same waters are agitated, and a storm arrives, everyone is concerned for their well being.
Francis LitzingerPublished 4 years ago in WanderThe Magic of Puerto Rico
This was my third vacation to the magnificent island of Puerto Rico. I hadn’t been there in over 15 years, but always remembered the culture that made this island so very special to me. I had visited many islands but always felt Puerto Rico in my heart. It wasn’t just about sand and blue water, but it has so much more to offer. Puerto Rico has a flavor that never leaves you. Full of culture and beauty, Puerto Rico is an island to be discovered. The people, the food, the music and the history are unmatched anywhere.

Post Isolation Dream Day My ideal post-isolation dream day would be like this. I board a 2:00 am flight on Delta Airlines from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport to Ian Fleming International Airport in Ocho Rios, Jamaica.
Jacqueline StatonPublished 4 years ago in WanderPARADISE ISLAND
Not only do I live moments away from sandy beaches and that lovely ocean breeze, that reminds me so vividly of how free life once was before this much needed lock down was establish. As I sit and think about the place I would want to be right now, I wonder how sad it is to be 5 minutes away from everyone else's idea of vacation. To just be able to feel the millions of grains of sand flowing beneath my feet sounds so beautiful right now... to be able to smell that one of a kind ocean aroma that in its self is already a digital dream vacation, that I can't wait to take just a mini, beautiful vacation. But let's get into that vacation that I am dreaming of taking.
Unspoken WordsPublished 4 years ago in WanderAn American in Cuba
In the turquoise seas and rose kissed skies of the Caribbean, just over 90 miles south of the neon bikini-clad beaches of Miami, lies Cuba, an island nation that sits bordered in mystery and allure. Its past, shrouded in revolution, change and oppression, and its future that is what stories like Les Miserables are made of, is what makes Cuba an intrigue to travelers of all walks of life.
