In the early-70s a friend and I drove from Malibu down through the center of Mexico and on through Central America to Costa Rica. My friend wanted to give his marriage another chance and I accompanied him back to Malibu so I could pick up my VW bug and drive down again. I’d been offered the job of assistant manager at a major hotel in El Salvador and headed back down on my own.
If you’ve read about that adventure in “Kidnap in Oaxaca’ you’ll know that I missed out on the job and decided to return to Costa Rica, where I lived for over a year. I’ve created this section for my Costa Rican adventures.
After I got ripped off by a couple of Costa Rican business partners I decided to leave and return to Malibu. I sold most of my belongings, including my car. Two old friends let me hitch a ride with them when they returned to the USA and we parted ways in Texas so they could carry on to Louisiana while I hitched across country to California.
More adventures to write about there as well.
Costa Rica continued to call me and I’ve returned there several times to visit friends.
