Shop Luferz for Gringo Groceries in Perez Zeledon

View/Add Comments (0 Comments) |

In San Isidro de El General, there used to be a store called La Corona that carried a lot of grocery items that U.S. expats like that are hard to find outside of San José. They went out of business, but there is a new supermarket called Luferz, right across from the McDonald's that has many of those rarely seen items and more. Expensive? Yes.

I'm on my third career in life that of being voluntarily unemployed! The first two were house construction and later hi-tech as a software engineer. I was fortunate to be able to retire early in Costa Rica back in '07. With my wife and younger son we bought land and built a dream house with that million-dollar view you hear so much about. We spend time raising coffee, bananas, and fruit trees. My wife is an accomplished artist and has discovered new media to express herself here including beautiful ceramic mosaics. Pura vida! P.S. Now, in 2021, planning our next move ... to México!
