Costa Rica Alone: A Solo Travel Guide for Women 50 and Over

Costa Rica, two bases, no rush.

Take a counter seat at a soda for the casado, wake to gallo pinto, and watch for wildlife around Arenal or Monteverde with a guide booked locally, using a registered taxi after dark.

Eat alone: a soda casado, the feria, Costa Rican coffee, lodge dinners.

See: La Fortuna, Manuel Antonio, Cahuita and the Orosi Valley.

Feel safe: a registered taxi after dark, and what actually ends trips.

Day plans, hotels by budget and honest safety notes. EPUB ebook.
