Your reply was nothing but negative and pessimistic. We don't intend
to take jobs away from locals, and we surely don't believe that the
world doesn't owe us anything. However, I don't feel that I should be
denied the opportunity to move to another county because I'm not
wealthy. Shockingly, I am highly skilled as well as proficient in
Spanish. I know 'you old timers' like to assume that GRINGOS don't
take the opportunity to learn about a culture and its people prior to
travel, however your quick reaction to judge all Americans and label
me only reminds me that not all Costa Ricans are as wonderful as I've
heard stories about.
Your attitude reminds me of the kind of American you take me for:
close minded, racist and bitter.
Maybe you should take this saying to heart more than you do: Pura
verdad para pura vida.
NONSENSE
Wonderful stories???????
Wait until reality sinks in.
These sites encourage Gringos going to Central America to often circumvent th law..makes them MOJADOS then!!!!!! Harharhar.
"Racist" did not even talk about "race"? Where do these weirdos come
from, well Costa Rica seems to be a good place for them. There is not
much culture there anywy, only ecotourism, and Ticos are "friendly"
but rarely become FRIENDS. The Ticos will have their money within a
year, they are going to work illegally while others must bust their
butts getting reidencies like we did up here!!!!!
Don't blame the legal Hispanics who have US Citizenship for being
upset about "amnesty" for illegals
Going to sue the poster and site for defamation if this nonsense keeps
up, I fought for freedom of speech and freedom ain't free.
Some "Gringos" just love to bark orders, like rabid dogs. The Costa
Ricans put up with them becuase they have money to invest.
My converstaions with a licened Central American tour operator.
