"When you move to a foreign country, you do feel lonely sometimes. Trading texts, emails, and Facebook messages sometimes isn't enough." - Greg Gordon
Thinking of moving to Costa Rica to live the pura vida lifestyle? Today’s guest, Greg Gordon, is an expert in expat living. He’s been living in Costa Rica since the 1990’s as the founder of the country’s first online surf report, CRSurf.com.
In Episode 135 of Badass Digital Nomads, Greg and Kristin discuss how Costa Rica has changed over the years. They both witnessed the tourism and real estate boom firsthand. Greg shares how he taught himself to blog and code during the early internet days. He then offers tips on how to grow an online business with no experience, achieve work-life balance, and run his company from anywhere.
Kristin and Greg also share their favorite places to visit in Costa Rica and explain how to stay safe and avoid common scams. Even though Costa Rica has a higher-than-average crime rate and cost of living, it’s still a magical place to live or travel (if you know what you're doing).
Tune in now to learn some of Costa Rica’s best-kept tips secrets from two of its most experienced expats!
