What Pura Vida Means

This is a video of the most amazing trip of my life, it has really shaped who I am today. In january 2011, I participated in a volunteer experience in Costa Rica with the ISV program. There I was welcomed in a tiny tiny community with only one school but I felt so welcomed and everyone was incredible. I especially miss the kids of Costa Rica, I played with them everyday and I miss them sooo soooo much ='[ On my last night In their town, I was at one of the kids houses and him and his friends walked me home after their bedtime but they didn't want their dad to drive us because they wanted to spend more time with me. This video sums up my love for the town, I will never forget them.

[harrypuravida2]

@nickforthetitle Yeah, I went with ISV. Are you thinking of going with them?

[nickforthetitle]

@harrypuravida2 i went with them this year to costa rica. it was unbelievable. best time of my life! tell me about your trip. what project did you do? i did the ostional loras, working with the turtles. isv did a great job huh?!

[harrypuravida2]

@nickforthetitle I went on a community project where we painted masks and art stuff for kids and had a parade throughout the town. I actually prefered my project over the adventure portion because I loved the community just so much, i felt like one of them cos i went out on the streets just talking to everyone. ISV is really awesome, so expensive though but it definitely changed my life. How about yours?
