The story of how I ended up in Costa Rica goes back to 2016, when I studied abroad in one of my favorite towns right outside the capital, San Ramon. It was during those four months that I fell in love with the country (and a boy who later became my Tico husband) and made it my goal to graduate college, teach science, pay off student debt and move to CR!
So that's exactly what I did, by 2020 I officially moved here, and continued teaching which I loved, but I felt a void. My friends and family saw the joy in my eyes when I talked about Costa Rica and I personally felt like I was being held back from truly experiencing the country; I had to make a change.
So I took the plunge, left the classroom, and did a complete 180 lifestyle change, and here I amātraveling all over Costa Rica and planning incredible experiences for families, honeymooners, friends, and solo travelers. Living my dream in this country, exploring every corner, finding waterfalls, and embracing this adventure-filled playground. Here, I'll help you discover special places that connect you with nature and create unforgettable memories. While great options near towns and activities are plenty, my heart loves the hidden gems off the beaten path!

Review of Costa Rican Vacations
Reviewed July, 2023 by Karen C.
Our first Costa Rica vacation was AMAZING, thanks to all the thought and care put into it by our travel agent Caitlin Summer. Our hotels were incredible! We fell in love with both bungalows. The activities were perfect! And knowing that our transportation was taken care of for all our transfers and activities gave us great peace of mind. Our drivers were wonderful and always early to pick us up. There was not one stressful moment in the entire trip (7 days split into La Fortuna and Tamarindo). No stress, only JOY! Thanks to Costa Rican Vacations, and Caitlin, we got to fully experience PURA VIDA!

Our agent made our honeymoon stress-free and fun! She was available throughout, even when I felt unwell early in the trip. Her support and great recommendations helped us feel better fast. So grateful for the special touches she added along the way.
