Made It

I arrived in Costa Rica last night by way of Tampa and Houston. So far, I feel like a VIP, which I am sure will soon be crushed by some challenge that I will crush right back. Hulk smash difficulties. I stayed one night in Hostel Pangea in San Jose. There was a shuttle that picked me up at the airport and delivered me directly to the hostel, which is more like a resort compound. Locked away behind steel doors, the traveling tourist, family or activist will find americanized accommodations complete with english speaking staff, swimming pool, bar/restaraunt, free internet and pool table. However, I might as well still be in the US with this kind of arrangement. I met up with another intern from the ranch, Anne, and we will travel together to Mastatal. She is totally great and will make for a fun travel companion. 2 different buses split between three hours will take us to our new home the jungle.

I do have an address for the next three months so send me a hug in a box if you can
