Covid-19 Update – January 26, 2021

I want everyone to know that I am keeping up to the minute on the travel situation between North America and Costa Rica so please contact me directly to help you plan your trip so it will go smoothly. michael@tanktopsflipflops.com

STILL NO COVID-19 TEST IS REQUIRED to come to Costa Rica from North America.  However, as of January 26, 2021, anyone entering into the United States will need a negative COVID-19 Test.  You can get a test very easily at the Coco Medical Center in Playas del Coco.  Below are the detailed requirements for testing and contact information for Coco Medical Center and how to make an appointment or contact them directly.   As of this writing there is a quarantine requirement for anyone entering into the United States.  I am available to speak to you personally to suggest various solutions to navigate these new requirements.  Check out the video for details.

I am truly a lucky man. I have met so many outstanding people, here in Costa Rica. I can honestly say I have thousands of friends.  Over the last 8 months, these fantastic human beings have stepped up and answered the call, when needed. It warms your heart to see how generous and giving they are, helping the local families in need, during these challenging times. Every day money keeps pouring in to allow us to continue feeding the locals, and time and time again, someone rises up to sponsor an entire day’s food drive. The best part is, it allows me to share with you some of the stories, of these magnificent folks, to give you an inside look at who and why so many have made Costa Rica, and the Papagayo region their home.

When I first met Victor and Doreen Bhatt, I knew right away we would be friends for a long time. They just have this incredible warmth, and sparkling sense of humor, that attracts people in. They are the type who truly care about you, they do not just ask for the sake of asking. They are a special couple with a fascinating life history and I immediately was drawn to them. Within a few minutes, I knew I was in for a ride.
