Advice on living in Costa Rica

hello, i have lived here in costarica for more than 10 years and i could not recommend it to even a stranger. the gov here is very restrictive about what you can order on line and receieve thru the mail or fed ex or anyother. i ordered recently more than 500 us dollars worth or products like empty jel caps dmso and a blood zapper and some others as well not knowing thay have strict laws any form of alternitive health care. now i read news and watch the news and have a tica wife. she knew nother of these restrictions. ever once in ahile  i received death threats on the telephone. the last one less than a month ago. threatened to shot me and my wife son, who truely is like a son to me. we havent had any problems at all with anyone and lived in this neighbothood  now 7 years. we do have some people around that act very hatefull. crime in general is high and i would not go anywhere after dark at all. anyway listen to others tell what a paradise it is , but file this away. keithe.

I am sorry to hear of your troubles. Can you tell me where you live exactly?
