1st Question: Dunn Inn vs. SL? Dunn Inn will be a little cheaper. SL will be more fun. I would stay in the latter if it was my first time.
2nd Question: Oranges? You were given incorrect information
3er Question: Walking at night? I wouldn’t walk at night even a few blocks, especially if you have a few drinks.
4rd Question: Language problems? Most girls at MP, HDR, SL, etc. understand the basic vocabulary related to the hobby. They are very interested in doing some business with you, and if there is empathy on both sides it’s easy to reach an agreement. Don’t worry if you don’t speak Spanish, but I advise you to learn some key words.
5th Question: Expenses? Between $150 and $200 a day (hotel, taxis, drinks, food and 3 girls included)
6th Question: Phone? It your personal preference. You may find it exciting and stimulating to exchange phone numbers with the girls. A phone for me in Costa Rica (visit just for a week) is an unnecessary burden. (Too many girls calling me)
7th Question: Fun things to do? Spending time with friends, going out to eat to nice places, walking/visiting in the morning beautiful places in the Central Valley, walking in downtown San Jose, etc..
8th Question: Money? Bring your debit card and use ATMs. Bring some cash for emergencies. Have a mental chart of equivalencies ‘Colones-Dollars’, so you know exactly how much you are spending and don’t get overcharged.
9th Question: Tips? Normally I don’t tip. Few exceptions: a nice waitress /bartender, a taxi driver that I have known for a long time, favorite girls. I do not tip at MP.
10th Question: My biggest mistake as a rookie is that I tried to do too much and did not rest/sleep/enough. In my opinion to perform well you need to rest a lot, keep hydrated, and pace yourself. Have fun!
