I recently got my Costa Rican citizenship through my mom who is born there and have been thinking about moving and starting my life there.
Jealous!! Do it. It’s the best decision we made.
90 day visa is at the discretion of the Migracion officer, could be 30 days; you need to look at your passport and not make that assumption. The 3 days border-run has always been safer esp if you want to apply for residency because the law and/or the implementation has been unclear for at least the 22 years that I’ve been here. I got residency ( eventually became Naturalized) and I always did three-day border runs because Migracion requires a copy of your passport. What if you were rejected because you did less than three days! I know a few stories, one officer was counting my friend’s hours out,implying that he could refuse to let her enter. All that being said, generally, I have found Migracion to be helpful and kind.
Thanks for your comment, Victoria. Yes, it is at the discretion of the officer. Pura vida!
Hola! Love your channel! Moving to CR in a couple of months. In process of buying 2 cabins close to Bajamar Beach in Central Pacific coast in Puntaneras. Thanks for your info and I will reach out via email. Pura Vida Lala
Hi Lala - Thanks for your comment and for watching. Welcome to Costa Rica. We’d love to connect (hola@yourpuravida.com). Pura vida!
Do you need a maintenance guy? I'm cheap.
Hey great vid. We are considering a move. Going to make a couple visits to CR to see where we would like to be. What is the cost for your services?
Hi Kevin -- thanks for your comment and for watching!
We don't receive money from referral fees like other companies who make their money recommending solutions to people even if they don't need those services.
We'd love to have a quick call and get to know how we could help and then quote you only what you need.

I dream of moving here please help with any tips you can give. Thank you
very informative
Thanks for the feedback! We'd love to hear more of what interests you - both positive and negative. Excited to have you watching and participating!
Which place is the best to live close to beaches wth all the amenities?
That’s a difficult question to answer without more context. Budget, what amenities, etc. Contact us and we can send you our 124-point assessment for what part of the country you should explore living in.
Hello from Arkansas USA. Considering moving my family of seven (wife plus five kids 16 to 2 years old) to Costa Rica within the next two years. My permanent income sits around $7000 per month, net. I love Rain 🌧️ very much and mild climate with slow lifestyle. Any recommendations? And is this possible in Costa Rica on my income?
So good to hear from you! Your income is very comfortable - even for a family of seven. And what you are looking for is definitely something we've done before. We'd love to help you! Have you scheduled a consult with us?
Thanks for the quick reply! We are going really slow on this. What are the next steps in consulting with you?

Very lucky white men (2).
Y'all looking for another partner?
I'm cheap, just 5% is good with me.
Very knowledgeable on home maintenance and my Espanol is good enough to make any Tico smile! 👍🏼
My mantra is Pura Vida!
Been there, done that. A beautiful country riddled with internationally unreported crime.
Thanks for your comment. We recently did another video about crime and safety where we discuss our own experiences of safety. Pura vida.
For a couple of guys with a business of helping people move to Costa Rica, you wierdly don't seem to know much about Costa Rica. Guns are not hard to come by, the last I checked the per capita murder rate of CR was 2.4 timed the US, and it is temporary pensionado residency, not a visa. I heard enough here to know you guys don't know what you are talking about!
there is a lot to unpack in your comments and respectfully we disagree with several of your statements. Rather than comment here we will address in our next monthly Q&A video
Maybe learn how to say Atenas?
We'll consult our dialect coach right away! Thanks for the heads up.
