Free gift: The Magic Momentum of Kindness. You’re ready for change. You crave a simpler life brimming with positivity and happiness.

12 places where you will feel absolutely dwarfed by nature. September 13, 2013. SITTING SEQUESTERED in rooms, in neighborhoods, in big cities can make you feel small and insignificant…but it’s a claustrophobic smallness. A feeling that human-made mechanisms beyond your control are ‘closing in on you.’. Then you pack a bag and get out. To the forest, the mountains, the open plains. Walls and fences recede, and suddenly you realize how small and insignificant. This post is sponsored by the Nature Project.

2 Time Zones Away. Tales and tips from a gringa living in Costa Rica. Monday, June 10, 2013. It's sure been a while. And let me tell you why. I don't go through every day thinking "I'm in Costa Rica" I just go through my days. Sure things remind me that I'm in Costa Rica, but no longer in a "OMG I'M IN A DIFFERENT COUNTRY" way. It's more in a "yup, that's Costa Rica for ya" type of way. This is obviously something difficult for me to describe. Life in Costa Rica, has just become life. A&T My Alma Mater.

2 Time Zones Away. Tales and tips from a gringa living in Costa Rica. Wednesday, October 31, 2012. And my Miracle Max is my mug of wine. The science fair was today and it was a very long day. I spent the ENTIRE time going around to see presentations from the kids. Because I have 6 different grade levels I had to go through 6 full classes of presentations. And boy was I disappointed. I even had a group do mentos in coke. Mentos. In. Coke. Is that even an experiment? When you know what's going to happen?

2 Time Zones Away. Tales and tips from a gringa living in Costa Rica. Monday, February 18, 2013. Second week of second year. I'm into the second week of my second year teaching in Costa Rica.

A piece of styrofoam that...

2 Time Zones Away. Tales and tips from a gringa living in Costa Rica. Tuesday, April 30, 2013. It's been too long, I know. But things have just been so normal there's not been anything to write about recently. Until now. On Friday, President Barack Obama will be visiting Costa Rica! But, my school (not where the helicopter is landing) is thinking they're still going to have classes. Which has caused this huge thing. And get caught in 5 hours of traffic? So as a unit of teachers we have all sort of stood ...

2 Time Zones Away. Tales and tips from a gringa living in Costa Rica. Tuesday, December 11, 2012. End of year stuff. I have successfully completed my first year teaching in Costa Rica! The next day, on Thursday, was the recital. We arrived around 1pm and the thing lasted until about 4:30pm! Luckily, it took place at a theater right on my bus route so when it was over I just jumped on the bus and went home. With only a few hours left the party organizers came in with a bunch of party stuff- hats, whistles...
