Experiencia inolvidable

Una gran experiencia en Costa Rica, tanto para ir en pareja como en familia (nosotros fuimos con nuestra hija de 2 años). Fue estupendo conocer, al menos por un día, una forma de vida diferente a la que estamos acostumbrados, de la que se puede aprender mucho, gracias a las explicaciones de Maura y Milton y sus hijas, y su pasión por la defensa de su cultura.
