I bought this book before taking a trip down to Costa Rica because if I move or don’t move there is a lot of very helpful information on how the country works and local options. We tried out the food suggestion and got pineapple pie at Nogui’s and that was simply amazing.

My favorite part of the book is when they are trying to out run a forest fire while leaking gasoline out of their vehicle. (Also Reviewed on Amazon.com)

If you’re moving to CR, especially anywhere in the Guanacaste region, this is the perfect book. It’s an easy read, has tons of super useful information, but isn’t so long that you’ll never finish it. Trying to navigate the banking system? Thinking of renting or buying? Wondering if you need to be fluent in Spanish? Do you need insurance? Want to know about residency, how to do proper “border runs”, which is the best local school for your child….. all mixed in with great anecdotes? Cut the Crap makes an excellent read on the airplane and is the perfect book or gift for anyone who’s ever considered moving to Costa Rica. Two thumbs up – don’t miss this book!
