ebook Tropical Immersion: A Year in Costa Rica and Beyond

COPY LINK DOWNLOAD ----------------------------------- https://sastrea-baja-hitam.blogspot.com/?read=B09MF8GX8R ----------------------------------- Everyone knows that Costa Rica is a paradise. But how does one find one 8217 s way around when streets have no names and houses have no numbers? When does one shake hands, and when does one kiss one 8217 s friends? Tropical Immersionis the wry and very personal story of a year in Costa Rica, the overland journey there and back, and side trips to Nicaragua and Ecuador. It details navigating the rough, narrow, busy Costa Rican sidewalks and learning to see doing so as a sport, eating fruit that smells like bodily fluids and discovering that it tastes delicious, and learning to respect 8220 reckless 8221 Mexican bus drivers 8212 whose driving could be described by the uninitiated as terrifying 8212 by deciphering their clever use of turn signals. The book offers a feast for the senses: rich, earthy aromas, warm wind on the skin, the bitter taste of dust in the air, the sound of birds, insects, children laughing, mothers calling their names, and laborers working the land. Its focus is not sightseeing but 8220 culture-diving 8221 not ogling or conquest, but participation and integration. It is part travelogue, part cultural primer, part memoir, part romance and a treatise on the being present, wherever one is. - Tropical Immersion
