That sounds about right, Scott, and thanks for posting. When I hear people complaining about how expensive it is to live in Costa Rica I have to question what they are buying and how they are living!
I wonder the same thing! Makes me laugh though, because I love reading blogs from people who specifically moved to CR for a more simplistic lifestyle not luxury, high end! and then I will read one where the couple talks how everything is so expensive, and they spend thousands of dollars on a home and complain about the upkeep. Amazing!
