What Costa Rica taught me

On the 1st December 1948, President Jose Figueres Ferrer abolished the military in #CostaRica. It’s now been 25078 days without a Costa Rican army and they’re doing just fine.

This country has taught me many things and reinvigorated other core values that are easy to forget in a busy world. 

Kindness and smiles are free.

Our natural environments and the creatures that live in them are our most important asset.

We can all make small changes that have massive impacts on a better world.

We are privileged to have choices.
