So this whole thread as well as your others are just a giant exercise in mental masturbation .

I'm busting your balls a little, b/c you asked some fair questions, if a tad over analytical.......but if you need to do this level of "research" before you even decide to make a trip, thats way too much. And a membership is cheap (economic theory = price to utility ratio); plus with all your questions it would benefit someone like you greatly, if only to get a sample of what the level of talent is down there - just bear in mind most guys are not professional photographers

I'm of 2 minds; on the one hand most guys who travel to Costa Rica end up loving it - OTOH, you might not find as readily available the level of talent you are seeking - but you should make the trip, and perhaps hold off on starting more threads until you make a firm decision to come (unfortunately, my time is actually worth more than my money, b/c I have very little free time to travel or vaction. I typically try to maximize my trips by having actual and 'accurate' planning. When I get off then plan then I relax and don't think anymore.) - so much of what you ask is subjective, as I've previously posted - it matters little what I or someone else opines, because your taste could be - probably is - so different - unless you are totally in sync with my tastes and opinions, what does it really matter what I or anyone else thinks when it comes to what constitutes beauty, hotness, etc (there are some common themes unless you are wayout in left or right field. If you're into brown showers or golden showers, then I probably would not value what that person says too much. However, if you seem to understand the norms of physical beauty and attraction then I think that is something that can be shared. I agree that everything needs to be taken with a grain of salt. I do appreciate the field reports on here as bros get to share their experiences and feelings - opinions. Without opinions there would be no 'forum' at the same time I tend to value those with informed opinions. Thanks for all the great feedback thus far. However I will keep posting new threads if I come up with any new questions so that the forum can serve it's function. Thanks everyone!).
