Costa Rica: Best Place to Spend a Month in Winter 2014:
Hello!
I'm looking to spend a month in Costa Rica with my boyfriend and two children (11 and 15). The kids enjoy hiking, swimming and science. I enjoy a town or city with cafes and Internet access. My boyfriend/partner is crazy about cars. Any advice on the best base location for a month?
Many Thanks,
Lisa
Malaysia: All About Penang / Short-term Rental for Dec 2014:
Good Morning! My partner and I + two kids (11 and 15) would like to stay in Penang for the month of December. Would LOVE short-term rental referrals, best books on Penang and surrounding area and any and ALL tips you'd generously offer. What's the weather like in December? Hoping to escape Portland, OR gloom, explore a new culture, determine whether Penang is a good fit for part-time living, and enjoy ourselves! Thank you so much! - Lisa
