About the host
Hosted by Rob & Sarah
Originally from Canada, I first came to Costa Rica on vacation 30 years ago. I instantly fell in love with the country, the people, and, most importantly, my wife. I never looked back.
My wife, Sarah, and I spend many weekends here with our three kids and friends.
My favorite part of Costa Rica is Hermosa Palms, which I discovered when I rented one of the homes that I now own. That was about 6 years ago. Since then, I have acquired three more homes in the same neighborhood. That is how much I love this place.
Naturally, I love to travel, discover new places, learn about different cultures, and spend time with the people I meet along the way.
Besides traveling, I also enjoy hiking, running, and fitness in general. If you enjoy the same things and like spending time surrounded by nature, you will love everything Costa Rica has to offer. Some of the best national parks, hiking trails, and untouched beaches are just minutes away.
I'd be happy to share my favorite running and hiking spots with you.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
