Hey everyone!! 💓✈️🏄‍♀️🌍
Long story short, my name is Jenny and I am a super spontaneous adventure lover. I love doing anything outside and in the sun🌞
My favorite hobbies include snowboarding, surfing, hiking, trying new foods, running around barefoot, backpacking, and exploring!

I’ve had some pretty crazy travel experiences and I have the travel bug real baddd🐞 Last month, I went solo backpacking Italy, which I absolutely loveddd. Some of my other favorites include skiing in the french alps, surfing in puerto escondido mexico, hiking acetanago in guatamala, bar hopping in ireland, and snorkeling in bali. I could go on and on about my love for traveling but I would run out of room LOL. Basically, traveling with me is always an adventurous experience and we always have the most amazing memories (and pictures to prove it)!!

I’m bringing it back to Costa Rica, which is the first country I’ve actually ever visited and one of my absolute favorite destinations. I cannot WAIT for all that this trip brings and I am beyond excited to meet new people and make more memories!! 🤸‍♀️🌊🌴💓

Costa Rica > Tamarindo’s Wild Side & Beachside Bliss with Jenny

Tamarindo is the kind of place where every day feels like a new adventure waiting to happen. Ready to see it for yourself? You’ll lace up your hiking boots for volcanic trails at Rincón de la Vieja, splash around La Leona’s crystal-clear waterfall, and catch your first wave (or improve your existing skills) with a surf lesson on Playa Tamarindo’s golden shores. Hop aboard a catamaran for sunset sailing, snorkeling with tropical fish, and ocean breezes that make every moment feel cinematic. This journey is all about mixing wild nature with laid-back beach life, perfect for any traveler who wants to swap routine for jungle hikes, sunset ocean views, and nights under the star-speckled sky. Book your spot and let Costa Rica’s energy take you on the ultimate tropical getaway.

Day 1 · January 6, 2026
Coming for Costa Rica

Welcome to Costa Rica, where the jungle meets the waves! After landing at Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport (LIR), your crew will hop into our group transfer straight to your Tamarindo home base. Check-in, kick back, and soak up the first night of Pura Vida. No agenda, just good vibes and anticipation for the adventure ahead.

Day 2 · January 7, 2026
Volcano vibes, waterfall wonders

Today’s all about the wild side. Fuel up with breakfast, then roll out for a guided hike in Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park. This spot is home to steaming fumaroles, bubbling mud pots, and epic jungle trails. After lunch, cool off with a visit to La Leona Waterfall. Dip into the crystalline pool, snap those waterfall selfies, and let the jungle soundtrack serenade you. Back at the hotel, free time means you set the pace. Chill or explore? Your call.

Day 3 · January 8, 2026
Surf’s up!

Rise, shine, and ride the waves! Today’s mission is a surf lesson at Playa Tamarindo, the ultimate beginner-friendly beach where golden sand and friendly locals make learning to hang ten a blast. Whether you’re a pro or a newbie, the Pacific will have you grinning ear to ear. After your session, the rest of the day is yours to catch some rays, hit the town, or just let the ocean breeze pass you by.

Day 4 · January 9, 2026
Set sail sunset-style

A day for the sea lovers! After a chill morning, grab your swimsuit and hop aboard a sunset catamaran sailing tour. Cruise the coast with a cold lunch and drinks in hand, then dive into the blue for some snorkeling action. Spot tropical fish, float with the current, and toast to the golden hour as the sun dips below the horizon. A final free night means more fun – perhaps Tamarindo’s nightlife is calling your name!

Day 5 · January 10, 2026
Adiós, CR

One last breakfast and a leisurely check-out mark the final morning of our journey. Your group transfer whisks you back to the airport, leaving you with memories of surf, jungle, and sunsets. Until next time, Tamarindo – and where to next?
