No fear!

This past weekend I was fortunate enough to travel to beautiful Monteverde, Costa Rica. It was quite a trip...haha I will have to explain more in person to any that are curious. I actually accomplished one of my goals for the trip already. I know it's early, but I told myself that I would go zip lining and I DID!!! It was seriously one of the most exciting things in the world! I won't lie I was freaking out right before, but it was totally worth it! The views were amazing and I felt like I was flying across the mountain! I got some gorgeous pictures and had a blast! As of right now I am staying in a hostel in San Jose. I am leaving bright and early in the morning for the coast. Playa Matapalo will be about a 5-6 hour bus ride. Can't say that I'm looking forward to it, but it should be ok...I don't really have too many exciting updates so far. I obviously left Atenas this afternoon and will be working with the turtles as early as tomorrow! YAY!!! I met a guy here at the hostel who volunteered last year so he had a lot of advice and helpful information to pass along. I'm starting to feel more relaxed and can't wait to actually start working! I'll do my best to keep you updated and I appreciate all the comments =) Miss you all!!!

It seems like you have been gone longer than a week, I hope the beach and the turtles are everything you were hoping and am glad you are meeting more people that can share their previous experiences with you.
