Hi, I'm Melanie! I love exploring the outdoors and sharing my adventures with all of you. Join me in Costa Rica!
It is a week of adventure, connection, and pure Costa Rican magic. Starting in San Jose, this trip takes us through some of the country’s most breathtaking landscapes — from the towering Poás Volcano to lush rainforests and sun-drenched beaches. Get up close with the power of nature while hiking along ancient lava trails, ziplining over jungle canyons, and chasing waterfalls in La Fortuna. Experience the heart of Costa Rican culture with a visit to the Maleku Indigenous Center and a coffee and chocolate tour. Then, soak in the natural hot springs and take in the serenity of La Leona Waterfall. The trip wraps up on the golden shores of Tamarindo, where free time lets you surf, explore, or just relax by the ocean before sailing into the sunset on a catamaran with snorkeling, lunch, and an open bar. With the perfect balance of high-energy adventure and pure relaxation, this is an experience designed to allow relaxation while creating unforgettable memories in one of the world’s most stunning destinations.
