Hello, I'm Spanish teacher teaching in Houston TX. I recently came back from Costa Rica which was my first trip through Explorica. It was a success. This was a group of 16 students and 3 adults and we have so much fun we did not want to come back. We visited lots of places including Manual Antonio National Park, Volcano Arenal, Baldi Hot Springs and Doka Coffee Plantation.
