For school and small-group travel, we coordinate with you every step of the way to make sure your questions are answered and your trip is amazing. As not only the directors but also the hosts on hosted trips, we get to know each and every one of our travelers, as we coordinate your trip details ourselves, not outsourcing to someone we've never met: From airport pickup to reserving your beach hotel to pinpointing the best waterfall hike for your group. We want all travelers with Go Tico! to become part of our family: We keep our travel groups small and we design our trip with specific objectives from Spanish immersion to biodiversity exploration. Located 175 miles north of the country’s capital of San Jose, This province is known as the Dry Forest, with. In contrast, Liberia, the province’s capital, has 47,000 inhabitants. It’s one of Costa Rica’s seven provinces and the largest with 6,300 square miles, but also the least populated. We've explored the country, North, South, East, and West, and we've had most travel and living adventures you can think of (Sick? Lost? Not sure what to do or where to go? Can you drink the water? What is a family-friendly beach? Honestly, how long is the drive from San Jose to La Fortuna? What do you do when you spot a hog-nosed pit viper on a walk with your kids? What is a hog-nosed pit viper anyway? Don't worry, we know!) Guanacaste is the northwest part of Costa Rica. Combined, we have over 25 years of experience growing up in, living in, traveling in, hosting trips in, (even raising kids in!) this country. Go Tico! Costa Rica is a small, Madison, Wisconsin-based organization directed by two Costa Rica-loving Midwesterners (one by chance, one by choice).

Have patience as you go through the video and you will be dying from laughter (cagandose de risa)!! You can translate that last one.With more than two years of COVID pandemic mandates, restrictions, virtual learning, remote work, and social distancing under our belts, authentic connection with others, with nature, and in destinations other than our own small circles is more important than ever. So now you might be ready to understand this video a little better and have a laugh. Me pescó GRINGITO !! (Did you catch all that GRINGO?) Sometimes the literal translation is funnier to think about than what they are actually saying. So to help out those of you who want to understand some of the Pachuco slang I prepared a list of Pachuco sayings with the translation, both literal and the actual meaning. Don't worry. The reason you don't understand is that the Costa Ricans are speaking to you in slang or "Pachuco" as the Ticos call it.Īt the end there is a link to a video done by the University of Costa Rica that includes many of these Pachuco sayings so hopefully you can understand the video a little better and you too can be a TICO LINDO!!! You think you are going crazy because you studied and practiced soooo hard and are surprised you don't understand them. You will find yourself becoming more confident and speaking only in Spanish to the locals! At some point, though you will find that to your surprise you understand the words but nothing seems to make sense? Many of you expats will study Spanish and begin to speak fluently. The actual root of the saying comes from the contest where the Tica Linda is chosen and rides in a parade and waves to everyone doing the Parade wave.
