Back in 2007, we had been married for one year and we had big plans to go to Thailand, but political issues in the country had us quickly pivot and change direction to sunny Costa Rica.

We spent 17 days touring this amazing country and immediately fell in love.

What we loved the most…every time we turned a new corner it felt like we were in a different country. The color of the sand is different at every beach, the tide and surf are significantly different and the shells and sea life at each beach are completely different. Some areas are dirt roads and other areas are major highways. We spent time in the rain forest (Arenal area), and the blue zone (Nosara area), and ended up finishing our stay in the Playas del Coco area. (and saw everything in between) .

We spent 17 days doing a different adventure every day.

We were still super young at the time (not even 30), but decided that buying a condo in Costa Rica, was the same financial investment as buying a camper at home, so we jumped in…and the rest is history (in the making).

15+ years later and Playas Del Coco, has become our ‘home away from home’.

(we still got to Thailand, China, Mexico, Jamaica, and the list goes on) but Costa Rica and our ‘sleepy little fishing village’ keeps pulling us back year after year.

Playas del Coco is the perfect balance of laid-back & small town with all the amenities we need to live the simple lifestyle we LOVE so much.

Coco has Banks, multiple grocery stores, hardware stores, Sunday markets, festivals, live music and entertainment, a beautiful beach, fabulous sunsets, the sun, the sand, and so much more!

Did we mention - the restaurants??

Our little town has so many AMAZING locally run restaurants and bars…

Follow us on IG and FB Coco Eats Costa Rica to get some great tips on all the incredible food and dining options in Playas Del Coco.

At home (Saskatchewan, Canada) we stay super busy with our businesses (Russ is a grain farmer and Tammy is a mortgage broker).

We love spending time with our kids, family, and friends whenever we have the chance.

We are always planning the next adventure and rarely sit still for too long! ♥

We are so grateful to have found our little corner of paradise and to have an absolutely amazing core group of friends that we get to hang out with every single year.
