Day 6-9: Monteverde – Montezuma

23 May, 2019 by VeroBello

Our initial plan for yesterday or today was to enjoy the canopy (ziplines) or the forrest in Monteverde. But yesterday we decided to stop at the chocolate and coffee tour in La Fortuna and then with the issues on the road we arrived late to Monteverde. And, if we go today to those tours we will be going in the afternoon to Montezuma, probably with lots of rain. So, since we weren’t sure about going to the ziplines anyway, we […]

Day 3: Tortuguero – La Fortuna

16 May, 2019 by VeroBello

Yesterday, we planned with Gerardo the channels tour at 5:30am, but there was a tropical rain that looked like the world was ending and didn’t look like it was going to get better. I started to get scared thinking that our vacation would be like that, but at 6:00am rain stopped and we were able to go to our tour (30$ per person + 15$ park entrance, everything can be paid with card, $ or colones). We were the only […]

Day 1-2: Houston-San Jose-Tortuguero

15 May, 2019 by VeroBello

The flight from Houston with United is only 3.5 hours and San Jose airport was very chill. Luckily my cousin picked us up at the airport and we had dinner at his house, but apparently is very safe to take an Uber. My cousin also took us later to our little hotel, which was nice and clean. The only thing is that it didn´t has AC or hot water, but it wasn´t that bad, at least it was closed to […]

Getting Married in Gibraltar

30 October, 2018 by VeroBello

Francisco and I were super excited about the temporary position my company offered me in USA (2-3 years). But, for him to get the VISA it meant we would have to get married and let’s say it wasn’t in our plans but we both didn’t mind doing it either. We both agreed to do something simple, but we never imagined that getting married in Madrid was so complicated, especially if you don’t want (or can’t) to do it in a […]

Portugal SW Coast road trip

20 August, 2017 by VeroBello

Being Francisco (my boyfriend) from Portugal, it was fair that I spent a few days in Portugal to know his country. So the past summer we took the car and drove from Madrid to Oporto, slept at his mother’s house and from there we started our road trip along the SW coast of Portugal. Here is the map I created for you to follow our road trip: Day 1: From Oporto to Carrapateira Day 2: Carrapateira – Sagress […]

6th Day: Peniche-Obidos-Oporto

19 August, 2017 by VeroBello

We had an early breakfast in Peniche to have time to visit the Fortress and as the fog came back, we didn´t go to the beaches in Peniche but to Óbidos, which is 20 minutes away. In Óbidos we visited the aqueduct, the Catholic church and walked through the town, which I found charming. We also visit the Church of Santiafo and the Castle. Our trip ended with a cherry on top of the cake with our visit to […]

5th Day: Vila Nova de Milfontes – Peniche

18 August, 2017 by VeroBello

Although we woke up quite late (10:30 am) we were happy because the weather had finally improved, it hurts that it is just when our vacation is nearing its end. Today we have the hotel booked in Peniche, so the idea is to stop at the beaches that are on the way to Peniche. The first was Praia Cerca Nova, but since it was so good, we decided spend quite a few hours in this beach. This beach, along with […]
