From San Jose

Utila has well and truly been left behind- at present im sitting in Costa Rica Backpackers in the middle of San Jose, the capital of the country. Its been a long, hard journey- 48 hours of long bus rides and staying in big, dirty cities- and theres still one more afternoon of travelling to go. But at the end of that we'll arrive in Corcavado national park, one of the most isolated parts of Costa Rica and also apparently one of the most beautiful. I'm travelling with Josh and Monika, a couple of friends from Utila. Josh lived in Costa Rica for 3 years, he's gonna show us a few things he discovered in his time here. Itll be a good few days.
