Costa Rica, a Central American nation, was discovered by Columbus in 1502 and colonised by Spain in 1561. It gained independence in 1821 and became a republic in 1848. Today, Costa Rica is a stable democracy with a strong focus on sustainability and eco-tourism, attracting millions of visitors annually. The country is home to over 5% of the world's biodiversity, with lush rainforests, exotic wildlife, and beautiful coastlines. Costa Rica is also a leader in renewable energy and environmental conservation efforts, making it a popular destination for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
I travelled to Costa Rica in 2017 aboard an
expedition cruise ship and also did lots of stuff in the mountains. Great place to visit.
