Santa Ana is like living in the States as there are tons of restaurants, shops, etc., but a bit on the busy side.聽 Definately a great place if you're looking for hustle and bustle.

Wow that's crazy if they did. In my research they've popped up a few times but I've never read any of their stuff. Wonder what happened

They basically duplicated the stress and financial expense they were escaping in U.S.,and recreated it in Costa Rica.Can imagine buying 2 properties in Guanacaste with no water ? Then,building a high maintenance home on a hill to run a business ...It all lost its charm after awhile...
