People of Costa Rica

 

The people of Costa Rica are called “Ticos,” and they have a reputation for being friendly, hospitable and kind people. Tourists are generally warmly accepted and treated well.

 

The Ticos are mixed race, because of the country’s colonial past. A large part of their population descended from Spanish immigrants, and the Spanish influence is evident in the language, food, and social mores of the Ticos.

 

Looking for a chance to use what you’ve learned in those Spanish classes? This is your chance!

 

No worries if you or your spouse cannot speak fluently in Spanish. The Ticos speak English fairly well, especially if they are in the tourist industry, and you shouldn’t be concerned about language barrier during your honeymoon.

 

What to Do in Costa Rica

 

Different couples have different ideas for their perfect honeymoon. Some honeymooners would want to be cooped up in their hotel room with their rose-petal covered beds and champagne bottles while enjoying the sunset with their significant other.

 

Other couples would like to enjoy nature and engage in some adrenaline-packed adventures with their partners and experience the beauty that Costa Rica has to offer – that means mountains, rivers, beaches, and the sun! Well, in Costa Rica, the opportunities are endless.

 

For your honeymoon, you certainly want an intimate and relaxed time with your wife or husband. It is in every honeymooner’s wish list to have great service, a romantic view, wonderful food and just a beautiful time altogether.
