Volcano Arenal from My Front Porch
Living in La Fortuna, Costa Rica by Arenal Volcano, I met John in Town while he was escorting Tourists to their Resort in LaFortuna. A Trip with John is not boring it is an "Adventure", he will provide you with your choice or music or bring your own, He will show you sites along the way, and even stop if you care to Zip Line through the Rain and Cloud Forest on your way to La Fortuna. I traveled with John last week when I returned from New York, even though I live here since relocating from Florida, he showed me sites I have never seen. So "Travel at your Own Pace" and Stop by and see our House and Paintings while Visiting the Hot Springs, Zip Lines through the Rainforests, or enjoying the abundance of Wildlife at our Front Door.

Colorful Birds of Costa Rica

"Oropendula"
"Colorful Birds fill the Skies of Costa Rica." The Oropendula a Large Bird, the size of an American Crow, is a very Loud Bird with screaching calls, they travel in Flocks sometimes followed by Toucans. These Birds Build their nests upside down in Old Large Trees, they look like an upside down sock. These birds can turn a complete 360 Turn on a Tree Branch which makes a crackling sound like Wax Paper.
"Ornate Hawk Eagle Endangered"

Painting of Eagle on Shores of Lake Arenal
Living in Costa Rica has afforded us access to"Wildlife" and many "Bird Species". Since we live just yard from a "Protected Rainforest", we see many "Endangered Species". With Toucans, Hawks, Eagles and a Protected Rainforest this Area in Costa Rica is a "Birders Paradise"
If You love "Birdwatching, or Bird Photography, come Visit Costa Rica where the Birds dont wait for "Springtime to Appear".

From the United States To Paradise

Since Relocating to" Costa Rica" 2 years ago, I had not been back to the Albany," New York" Area in 5 years. I was dismayed at the Cost of everything in New York. I did get to spend time with Family and Old Friends. Upon return to Costa Rica, I used a private Transfer ServicePrivate Transfer Service for Tourists
A Safe Passage for my 2 hour trip to my Home in Central Costa Rica , John the owner of A Safe Passage offers Tourists an alternative to Renting a Car, this is a Excellent Service, 8 passenger Van, Music, Stops along the way, it is "Where you Travel at Your Own Pace".  I am living in Costa Rica yet John showed me sights along the way such as where he offers his travelers the opportunity to Zip Line through the Cloud Forests, prior to arriving in LaFortuna. He also knows all the Culture and little sights along the way such as the Local Woman who runs an Iquana Preserve, who gladly welcomes you onto her property to show you the Pools and trees that now offer this animal a Santuary.
Upon arriving Home, I was grateful for the Wonderful Ride which was totally relaxing, and to be back in my Cabin by the Rainforest, where my Husband had created another Wonderful Painting that we offer to Tourists with Custom Hardwood Frames.

So, if you happen to utilize John and A Safe Passage he will gladly bring you to our Rainforest Home on the side of Arenal Volcano and you can view artwork or enjoy the Rainforest. Costa Rica offers a Vacation like no other. The United States was full of Stress you won't find that here in Costa Rica.
Glad to be Back in Paradise
