I heard from many ppl (non-nostriches) that if I go to Costa Rica itโ€™s not safe to leave the resort/hotel.

What are your views on this?

who said that? rumors๐Ÿ˜‚

There is a risk to going anywhere. I would rather risk Costa Rica than parts of Detroit.

Exactly, thatโ€™s why I am asking to hear from ppl who visited or lived there. I heard the same about other places Iโ€™ve been to already and for me personally it was ok.

In San Jose maybe, but not Uvita

I live in Brazil and still alive. I would go to Costa Rica anytime ๐Ÿ˜‹

I want to visit Brazil some day ๐Ÿ˜Š good to know. There are a lot of places I havenโ€™t been to in this side of the world

Brazil has so many beautiful places, too bad it's violent.

But if you know where to go, hardly anything happens to you. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Now I know who to DM for advise. Hopefully next year :)

Really, I have heard the opposite. Of course remember to be cautious and take care of your belongings, and donโ€™t walk alone during the night.

I know multiple people who have been there, and they say itโ€™s usually safe ๐Ÿซ‚

Also, I think this will depend on what places you want to visit

See the website

These safety guidelines look familiar and common. Thanks for sharing

Same thing can be said about Miami, thereโ€™s sketchy parts in EVERY place in this world.. just donโ€™t go there.. be mindful of the choices you make in an unknown place, like donโ€™t stay out too late or go where thereโ€™s no people & itโ€™s dark etc

I usually watch the sunset and chill home so that shouldnโ€™t be an issue for me. I remember when I first went to Chicago Iโ€™ve heard the same but I survived and enjoyed. Happy to read your opinions

I rented a car and drove from Santa Teresa to Samara and Nosara by myself and it was a couple hundred miles of good road, surfing, yoga and seeing friends (but even on this trip, when Iโ€™m traveling by myself I donโ€™t go out after dark. I stay at hotel and swim, like Iโ€™m doing rn).

Evenings well spent. Nothing would feel better than swimming for me. Enjoy ๐Ÿ’•
