Coming to Costa Rica for more than a vacation?

living in costa rica

"Pura vida" is what they like to say living here in Costa Rica.  It means "pure life" and that is absolutely what you'll find when visiting or living in this country. With its exotic animal life and lush, varied landscapes, you will be irresistibly drawn to live in Costa Rica with its residents. 

The country is a geographic wonderland full of rich tropical forests, black and white sandy beaches, mountains, volcanoes, and nature more abundant than anywhere else on the planet. And this is all contained within a relatively small space roughly the size of West Virginia. Although it only spans 19,700 square miles, Costa Rica holds 6% of the world's biodiversity. There are 10,000 varieties of plants, 1,200 of them orchids. There are 1,240 species of butterflies and 845 species of birds. Among the animal life, 205 classifications of mammals inhabit Costa Rica, as do 160 kinds of amphibians, 218 types of reptiles and 1,013 varieties of fresh and salt water fish. The diverse natural setting means Costa Rica also offers a huge range of local activities for people visiting or living here, from hiking and white-water rafting to fishing and scuba diving to simply lounging around on the beach. It¹s what makes Costa Rica the "must-see" destination of the Western Hemisphere, if not of the world.

Whether you are interested in living here permanently or part-time, investing here, or just coming to get away on vacation, let Casa Canada be "Your doorway to Costa Rica!".
