Pura Vida
This is something that must be experienced in person.
If you have been to Costa Rica, or if you are planning a Costa Rica vacation, one term you should be familiar with is “Pura Vida” (pronounces poo-rah vee-dah). Simply translated, it means “simple life” or “pure life”, but here in Costa Rica, it is more than just a saying—it is a way of life.
There is nothing that soothes the soul like the sunset seen from the beach, surrounded by tranquility!
