Thanks for the PM and proclaiming me the undisputed winner.

I'll PM address later.

Mucho Gracious and Puda Vida!


umm... you've got my vote, but you might want to start saying 'pura vida' Wink
The flap sound transcribes into an 'r' in Spanish, as opposed to a 't' or 'd' in English (though the thought progression of Puta vida did put a chuckle in my morning).

Muchas Gracias por su atencion. Y pura vida!

By the way, I know Costa Rica is socially nice (no army, more healthcare, etc) but $500 a month! Shocked

Ah yes, the spelling police are everwhere. You're right--my mistakes, but Spanish is such an easy language to learn, especially in contrast to Korean. And I'm getting better.

Just last night I had a rather "non-Tarzan-like" (me Tarzan--you Jane) conversation with a cute little tica at a local tavern. I was rather proud of myself. Her number is in my cell phone--this is when it'll get tricky.

And yes $500.00 per month is tough. You might find close to double to that if you're lucky.

Me, I just changed careers and make much more that a week-- US Dollars.

Everyone deserves a dream job every now and then.

Pura Vida!
